I think it would normally appear in a few days, a month tops
If it appears on https://www.insolvencydirect.bis.gov.uk/eiir/ the credit reference agencies should pick it up very quickly0 -
thank you for your reply it says that the court is the office of the ajudicator shoukd i be worried ??0

No, that's more than likely because you applied online not at court0

That sounds unusually tough? BR's are allowed a car up to the value of £1000 as long as you can evidence a need - rather than a want - to have one. Is there a specific reason you need to take the kids to school in a car? distance/disability/no public transport?
Its not just the cost of the car or course - its the association running costs and the impact on your surplus income that will be looked at as much as the value of the car itself.0 -
hi thanks for the reply gardner the childrens school is 34 miles away and i dont have an option about there school as they live with me and there mum 50/50 so i cant change there school but anyhow a 250 car would be a small price to pay i will appeal this decision although my or said i can keep it for work but not for taking kids to school which is bizzare0

its more than £250 as TheGardener says, you've got
the car itself - £250
tax - £150 a year
mot and service - £100 a year (if lucky)
insurance - £200-300 a year
fuel
tyres
breakdown cover
repairs
All these add up, especially if thought about over a 3 year IPA. The reason you can keep if needed for work, is that without it no income, no income no surplus
In your case though, have you checked they know ts 34 miles to school, and not three quarters of a mile, or 3-4 or 3/4 miles0 -
Have you thought abut cost for bus/train, and how much that'd be. If you can say to the OR its the car or a bigger amount for public transport, maybe that'll go down better0

Well this is my point without the car it would cost me 50 quid a week just to go pick the kids up and that's without the cost of taking then to school if have to set off at 6.30 with a five year old to school and a baby just think its clutching at straws abut TBH I'll double check she knows uts 34 miles to the school but thanks for the replies:beer:0

Also I wish my insurance was 300 pounds a year mine is five times that TBH haha I wish !0
