Hi KJ
Just wanted to ask how things have been since BR declaration in East Sussex (hope I remember correct!)
What was the OR interview like etc? Is the OR for East Sussex/Brighton human or horrific!?

Hi TL
As The Guvnor has already said, I am pleased I went through with my bankruptcy as well - 10 years of trying to pay it back on a voluntary DMP - wish I had done it sooner to be honest but Im nearly 7 months into mine now only 5 to go yippee!!!
You will feel like that as well TL
Take care

Eastbourne is where i went and the clerk there is a really nice bloke. he actually put me at ease on the day and is very friendly and approachable. i was only in court for about 2 minutes.
u will be fine. im so glad i did what i did as it now means my kids get a better life. |

Hi TL,
I didn't have any debt coll companies visit me either, this might have been cos I moved and only one of my creditors found where I was but they didn't get to that stage before I went BR.
Like you, my debts were very old and I had no assets so mine has been very straight forward as well.
Hope your RTA Comp comes through soon for you, so you can start your debt free future.

sorry,
the calling card was the usual 'one of our collectionagents called while you were out, contact us immediately to avoid further action' dont worry bout it, most wont ever call at your address just use it as an empty threat.

Hi KJ and the guvnor
Sorry, I forgot to ask a question to you as you are in the East Sussex area:
Did you ever get any debt coll coming to your door? If so, what company and what did you do? What were they like etc..
I am mostly worried about this happening to me as you can probably tell.... |

East sussex Or is fine. try not to worry. i dealt with several people at their office all of whom were very polite and professional and non Judgemental.
Dont worry, you will be a happier person once you have things sorted.
P.s i found the or to be more approachable via Email.
Good luck. You will be fine ;) |

Hi KarenJane
Thanks so much for replying. Its just so great to hear from other East Sussex BR people. It really does sound like maybe the OR isnt as bad as I am dreading, fingers crossed my interview will be a short one too.
I thankfully have the help from Reviva and without that I would have
not been as 'optimistic' and hopeful! They are the best support and so apretiated!!
Keep in touch and I will keep writing too of course!!

Hi TL
I have only had contact with the OR for my interview which wasn't horrific only lasted about 20 minutes if that. He was professional but not an ogre, he said that he would have to go away and look at my figures with regards to an IPA and said that it would take upto 3 months to hear back, he rang 10 minutes later to say he had a look at my figures and there was definately no room for an IPA so I thought that was really nice of him as I didnt have to worry about getting an IPA.
Since then I have had no contact.
Do you have your date for when you are declaring. I used Paul Reviva as well, he was brilliant.
Let me know how you get on. Take Care
