Hi guys, so after a lot of consideration and trying to battle my debts for a few years I have finally submitted my bankruptcy application today. It said a decision will be made within 28 days, how long does it usually take to process?
Once it’s been ‘approved’ I think I will have a massive weight lifted and look forward to trying to move forward from this. Credit is evil, I never want another credit card or loan ect again. Onwards and upwards! I’ll update how things go.
