Payback money in BR

Options
Hi
Just wanted to clarify a question. 

I paid the br fee out of my wages last month and was about £400 short on my expenses for the month because of it. Despite trying to skrimp, I had to borrow £300 just to survive. Its been a month now and I've got paid, can I repay the family member who has helped me through today? No ipa set up yet.

Thanks

    You should of saved the fee from not paying your creditors.
  • I guess I should have saved it over three months but I am where I am. I guess I'll have to hope an IPA takes a while to set-up
  • You should have been sent a form from the OR asking where the money for the fee came from. Did you get one and did you state on it that the funds were borrowed?

    It’s not a problem, the OR will understand that someone needs funds to pay for bankruptcy.
  • Thanks for the reply. I guess I'll just see what happens. It's done now, gues not to worry
