re social network sites:
I know that the OR can look at your facebook and presumably twitter, but can/does it also look at things like instagram or other photo sharing sites? Also, if I have my privacy settings set to only friends or private, van it still see everything I post?
I'm not hiding anything, but just windered how much privacy I have..or not.

Ha ha! Well, I think that's answered the question...

primark! You're posh! I'm so jealous!

I do pick up the odd George pair of jeans from the cancer research shop. Oops, shouldn't have said that!

The only way I get to visit places is by playing monopoly. ;-)

Thank goodness I didn't post my pics of my round the world trip last month in that case. Only kidding Mr OR! I should be so lucky. Haven't had a holiday since 2004 and I have no intention of putting pics of my clapped out old banger of a car on my facebook pics. Then again, there was that nice new shirt I bought from Primark a week ago....!

I'd post a link, but the OR might be watching ;-)

Tracey, most of mine are of me, very photogenic too ;-) ha ha

Satal, as I said before, you've more chance (if you won a reasonable amount on the lotto etc, and bought that shiny car) of a third party informing the OR.

They could have a look at mine as well - most of them are of my cat and I'm sure they'd agree he's very photogenic!

The more I have to do with humans the more I think that the world would be a better place if it was run by animals.

Last IPA payment made on 28th June 2010 and I'm now looking forward to getting married in September 2012 - I'm proof that you can go BR and come out the other side.
Niobe Posted - 18 July 2012 : 12:52:26
I can't see them looking at everything unless they are suspicious of something.

They'd be welcome to look at my pictures - they wouldn't like what they saw though - I'm not a pretty sight!!

Ascend may you find no resistance
Know that you made such a difference
All you leave behind will live to the end
The cycle of suffering goes on
But memories of you stay strong
Someday I too will fly and find you again

SATAL Posted - 18 July 2012 : 12:43:48
Thanks for your answers. I'm sure they have better things to do than read every post, but I was under the impression they look for things that show you are cheating..like a pic of a shiny new car or whatever (chance would be a fine thing!), so maybe are more likely to look at your pics than anything.
Niobe Posted - 18 July 2012 : 12:40:24
Too true Tracey!!

I can't see them being interested in someone's FB page, but if the OR has any suspicions about a person's honesty then I can see exactly why they would be interested in what they put on FB!

The moral is if you don't want anyone to know about something then don't post it on FB, Twitter or any other social network site.

bearsndogs Posted - 18 July 2012 : 12:28:03
I agree - why would the OR/Trustee be interested in looking at FB pages. And, as you say, Xmas Baby, bankruptcy is stressful enough anyway. I certainly haven't put anything about it on my account - in fact, most of the people I know personally don't have any idea about it, as I feel too embarrassed and ashamed to say anything. As it is, some of the few people that do know seem to have adopted a different attitude towards me, so I'd probably end up with no FB account anyway!

Niobe Posted - 18 July 2012 : 12:14:08
I also don't think they would bother with a normal facebook page. I certainly would not be wanting to trawl through everyones pages if I was an OR!!

I wouldn't have thought they'd bother in day to day dealings.

The amount of superfluous stuff on there would seem a waste of their time.

Well I was completely unaware the OR could have access to your facebook page. Although I have nothing to hide, I do think that is an infringement of your privacy. Like there aren't enough downsides involved in bankruptcy as it is without this one too.

Meant to say - be careful who you accept as a friend as well!!
