Posted - 15 April 2009 : 11:04:41 Hi, I'm currently living with parents, I'm un employed and on benifits.
I have my court date set for next week. I'm quite nervous as I dont really know what to expect.
Am I likely to get a IPA if I'm on job seekers allowance?
Also over the last couple of years I've opened a few bank accounts (some I cant remember and that I'm not in debt with) will I need to inform the OR of every account? Just I'm worried in case I miss some.
Thank you for your help.

If you do a credit search with experian eqifax and call credit they should show any credit or bank accounts you have and when you got them
