    4 - Debt write-off.

    When you complete your Scottish trust deed, any included debt that remains unpaid cannot be recovered from you.

    You won't get discharged immediately when you make your final payment. Your trustee has some work to do to process your discharge (and later to process their own discharge).

    10 - Pension funds are protected.

    Your money saved in an approved pension scheme is generally safe. Your trustee cannot force you to withdraw your pension funds (though the money would be at risk if you chose to withdraw it before getting discharged).

    Above seems relevant - have you discussed with your  Trustee?
