  • Im pretty certain its all debts up to the point of BR............but Im absolutely certain I shall be corrected if I am wrong :)
    BR 08/09/2007 /DISCHARGED 11/04/2008 :D

    A NEW BEGINNING
    DEBT FREE
  • I believe your right Seven.
    E.g you can put in last years Ct bill if its in arrears for BR, but you can't then not pay this years and add it to your BR.
    Otherwise all BRs would just put there heating bills etc down to Br until they get discharged.
    The first time we said hello, was the first time we said goodbye. As the angels took your tiny hand and flew you to the sky-you forever left us breathless. RIP my beautiful granddaughter :(

    Yep, its only debts up to the date of bankruptcy that can be included. It would be a bit jammy otherwise :D

  • Thx all, as expected, wish I'd put it in before BR but never mind at least everything is nearly over and done with.
