Posted - 09 October 2009 : 11:10:27 Hi Everyone,
I was declared bankrupt on 25/9/09 and have just had my telephone interview. I was feeling sick beforehand because of the unknown!!!! Now its over and it was no where near as bad as I thought!! Fortunately all my debt was from 10 years ago. The examiner was very polite, non-judgemental and very very fair! I am on benefits but also receive child maintenance he said he would have to look into my expenditure to see whether I was to get an IPA because of the child maintenance he said if you don't hear anything within 3 months then take it you won't get one!!! I thought 3 months is a long time to wait but 10 minutes later I got a phone call from him saying he had a quick look at the figures and there is definately no scope at the moment for an IPA, but obviously this would change if my circumstances changed!!!!
I am so glad that it is all over now, I have carried the weight of my debt on my shoulders for the past 10 years and not really been able to enjoy life and my children, that all changed 2 weeks ago when I declared bankrupt.
I know everyone's circumstances are different but if you are thinking about declaring bankruptcy and have received advice, things will get better, it may be tough for a couple of weeks but in comparison to the stress I have had for 10 years it wasn't anywhere near as bad!!!
I would like to thank everyone on the forum for making me realise that we are not alone and it helped me face up to things!!!!
I am now debt free and can enjoy my two beautiful children who along with me have been through alot during the past 12 months.
Karen xx

Posted - 09 October 2009 : 17:34:13 Great new Karen, so glad it went ok. You went BR same day as me. Like you I had a very fair interview and it was no way as bad as I was expecting. I had my interview Tuesday but havent had anything from them yet. I do have an IPA but I dont care, its fair and like you say the stress of the last few years is just draining away. Good luck for the future. |
