Hi my partner is going to apply for bankruptcy in Scotland within the next few weeks, I have a few questions about the process, as far as i remember she would need to open a basic bank account (barclays) now, then contact national debtline, then pay the £200 to the account in bankruptcy , would this be correct, her outgoings outwat her incomings and she has no assetts is it a certainty to be accepted? thanks in advance

Hi,
Sorry for missing your post, the bankruptcy laws in Scotland differ from the rest of the UK.
The new bank account is a must, however I am not familiar with the Scottish process, you can find info here :
