Why doesn’t everyone with a ccj or defult go bankrupt?

They stay on your file for 6 years just like bankruptcy


However with a bankruptcy nothing to pay, and after a year, it’s over and after 6 years or less they come of credit file.


Where’s with defult or ccj you still paying it off during 6 years and even after 6 years 


Only downside I can see to bankruptcy in this situation is you on a public register

    Why can't you accept to the responsible thing - why are you happy to let your actions impact everyone else ?

     You want the banks money but you don't want to give it back to them, charming 🙄😡😡😡

    No it’s not even about me, what are you on about.

    why don’t you say that to people who go in millions pounds of debts and go bankrupt not people who go with 5-10k

    What I’ve never gona bankrupt I pay off my debt

    the Other thing it’s morally wrong.

    Some professions do not accept bankrupt as employees, bank employees being one.

    Some people incur a default because of purely admin reasons, such as the payment being processed through the system just one day late.  It would be daft for that type of person to declare bankruptcy.  Not to mention, morally wrong.

    Some people end up with a CCJ because of a specific and focused dispute with one supplier.  That would not be a cause to declare bankruptcy affecting rent / mortgage / car loan / credit cards etc.  Again, it would be morally wrong and the impact to the individual far greater than one-off CCJ.

    Lenders are quite intelligent people really and can assess the risk of a sole default or CCJ far differently to bankruptcy.
