Gambling online whilst bankrupt?

sportswinner

ok but if i have 6 accounts i could tell them only 2 or 3? would they know what i have unless i tell them?

also i could open accounts with new bookmakers during bankruptcy?

i dont use paddy power or ladrbokes but have accounts with them so could tell OR (what or stand for?) about them two or would they check my bank account and see that all my transactions been through betvictor and betfair?

They will check whether you are BR or not and refuse you and when the OR finds out about the ones you are not telling him about then you may be inline for a BRO/U.

You are not going to get the answer you want from us I am afraid.

i pay my credit cards 1 pound per month atm due to my situation.

What happens if i stop paying them? They already moved my debt to collections agencies..

You'd be just as well paying them nothing and letting the accounts go dormant and then in 6 years have a fresh credit rating.

Unsercured debt and no assets means that they can't do anything to you. And often, even if you have assets they still don't.

The debt collectors can do what they like, if they turn up at your house, which is rare (they usually just sent letters full of empty threats) you don't have to let them in or talk to them.

I owe capital one 500 quid from 4 years ago, i have never paid them anything and ignored all letters. In two years i will owe them nothing, and have paid them nothing.

What happens if they go for a CCJ in those remaining 2 years?

I guess it's a gamble?

Assuming IVA rules are sam as bankruptcy any big wins(£500+ if memory serves right) would be classified as a windfall, and would have to passed to the OR

I like others can't see the OR being very happy about gambling over and above say a lottery ticket. If you can I suggest waiting for discharge before gambling again

I see but you dont think they will monitor my activity constantly?

Nobody on this forum is going to support or encourage you to commit a criminal offence, bankruptcy is a serious legal process in which certain obligations are placed upon you. Contravening those legal obligations can have very serious consequences.

I think it is a wind up to be honest.

They won't.

It is very rare for a company to go for a CCJ when owed so little.

Put it this way i owed a bank 5k and never paid them a penny, personal loan. I got a default but it eventually fell off my file so i now legally owe them nothing.

Not that i go around ripping companies off on purpose that is, it just sort of happened.

Morals are definitely winning in this thread.
