Bankruptcy discharge.

Hello there. Wondering if anyone can give me some advice. I have one month till I am discharged for my bankruptcy.  I need to know more about the certificate to prove that I am discharged because last week I had a soft search done by Lowell for affordability. All debts were put into the bankruptcy and I need to know what they're going to do next . I wouldn't put anything past them but I am getting stressed out again.

Thanks  for reading

Louise

    If you go to the I.S site upon discharge...click on your name and status will show discharged.
    This stays on there for 3 months so print a copy of for your records 
    Sometimes debts are sold on and companies will try it on...there is nothing they can do your debts were written of upon discharge.

    Lowells are a pain in the proverbials!!  I was discharged in Feb 2021 and they still insist that I must pay the debt (which was included on my BR).  The Post Discharge Credit Report Clear up thread has a letter template to send such companies.  I have just posted mine so hopefully will settle this soon 🤞🏼
  • Many many thanks.That is a polite way of describing them. Could you send a link please to this template ???

    It's a thread right here on this board, Credit Reference File Clean up Post Bankruptcy.  There you will find info and a letter template to send to creditors.
