    Every  person I've ever met from the Official Receiver I have found to be very easy to work with.
    I always had the feeling that if I was going to try to pull the wool over their eyes, that would change.

    I did, line was closed so I emailed them. I received a response saying...we will be in touch in due course. Which office was your examiner from?

    ORs are very nice people if you're honest and upfront with them, they're there to help you. However if you try to give them the runaround or pull the wool over their eyes they've heard and seen anything you think you can try hundreds if not thousands of times before and they have the ability to make your life a living hell including holding off discharging you for an additional couple of years.

    A bankruptcy restriction can last up to 15 years and I have met a couple of people who had refused to comply with an order and their discharge is suspended indefinitely
