    I'm not sure that many more people are actually defaulting (payment holidays are on offer), I think a bigger impact is on the debt advisors who need to talk you through your application and verify certain aspects of it. They will be working from home perhaps with less than ideal setups, from what I've seen things are progressing fairly normally though

    I agree with mwarby, being in exactly that situation. Things at the DRO Team are a bit slower too but it's just the numbers of staff working differently.

    Perhaps that may happen, but there will be huge numbers that don't default too.

    Time is a path from the past to the future and back again. The present is the crossroads of both. :cool:

    99% of debt in the world is being defaulted on
