I haven't heard of Lombard actually making people BR so they may just be trying to pressure you.

Posted - 07 July 2010 : 12:38:59 Which creditors are threatening BR? Normally this is just an idle threat to try to get you to pay unless the creditors are HMRC or the Council as they will declare you BR.
If you are declared BR then they will not be able to take anything from your girlfriend's home.
