bery_451 has a very interesting posting history

But as I’m trying to lose weight after Christmas, I’ll pass on the popcorn😉

That's what politicians do by digging up their opposing opponent history to find 'anything interesting'. Says a lot of the person who's doing the digging unless they are sinless and perfect to begin with then its no problem for them to dig in other people's back yards.

Did you know you can lose weight quicker by getting a fork and spade, doing some gardening and doing actual digging.

Pretty standard on forums simply to try to find out if, for example, a lack of understanding is consistent across the forum, or whether it relates to a specific area that is being discussed at that moment. Also to find out if someone is telling the truth in what they are claiming. 

Anyway - have you sorted that SOA yet to post over on DFW? When you are in debt, it really is better to tackle it at the earliest point you become aware of it being a problem for you, the longer you leave it, the harder it becomes to pay off.

Have you put your SOA together and posted it into a thread over on DFW yet OP? The sooner you take action, the easier the issues will be to deal with. 

Sorry SOA is? The hardship grant/fund offered by energy companies, will posting on there be acceptable proof for this grant/fund?

No, you have to have gone through an accredited provider such as Stepchange or CAB - and still be struggling.

But posting a Statement of Affairs in the debtfree board will be a step towards you getting to grips with your debts.  That surely can only be a positive thing, regardless of Hardship Fund eligibility

Okay cheers, just to clarify British Gas hardship fund grant only accepts SOA's from StepChange or CAB?

Other energy companies apart from British gas only accept StepChange or CAB too for their funds?

Another question regarding direct debits, do you still get the 5-6% discount for quarterly direct debits whole amount exact usage or only for monthly estimate direct debits?

Any flavour of DD will qualify.

Forget the hardship fund for now - the key thing if you are in debt is to get to grips with your situation as a while, not just one aspect of it.
