Bankruptcy is off credit file!

At last! My bankruptcy has fallen off my credit file. It's been a long six years. I don't even want to think about the period before that! I have bought back the interest in a buy to let property I owned, which the OR took possession of, and I am going to find a broker and arrange a remortgage so I can live in the property instead of renting it out.
I'll let you know how I get on.

This forum has been invaluable from the start of my journey and it will continue to be so. If you are thinking about bankruptcy and there really is no other way then I just want you to know that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Good luck to all of you xx:T:T:beer:

    Thanks for sharing, it's always good to hear from people who have come out the other side of bankruptcy. It's great that the forum was so helpful for you too.


    Best of luck for the future

    Hi did it drop off literally on the 6th year anniversary date? Or is it the day after? Did you find out via your credit reports?? Thanks and well done!
