Thanks for clarifying that John. As I keep saying (and you know too well from all my earlier questions!) I am no expert on the technicalities and can only give info as I understad it. I have read online and found it again last night that people have been refused BR if it would still mean they were insolvent afterwards. I'm really sorry if I misled in anything I said as that's the last thing I want to do.
Thanks again for clarifying it.

Dont list internet seperately they wont allow that but if you add into your phone charges you should be ok. We were allowed £75 each on gas and electric.
Your travel for fuel you could go up a bit better to add more than less.
We put £90.

We do pay £80 per month on the gas and electric each so we were not far out.
Food and cleaning we had £534 for 5

Hi Digman
Email me a home number as per my email address and i can advise what we did.
But if you dont we both went BR. No i dont have actual figures from the OR just what they told me over the phone not complete.
I am just trying to figure out all of what they allowed.
The only IPA we had given to us was the NT Tax code one. We did not have enough DI to go onto an ordinary one.

Sorry Jo , bit of cross posting going on i think !! lol . Our gas & electric are a combined account and therefore a combined DD of £110 . Was £98 up until last night but when i rang them to query why the DD had not been taken they wanted to put it up to £144 to which i objected and they agreed on £110 |

Hiya firstly good luck for tomorrow!!! Just had a look at your I&E and thought that i would let you know some of the things that i put down on mine, and were accepted (it's just me and 2 children aged 11, twins) Food/cleaning £398 Hairdressing £30 Clothing £75 My broadband, dentist (only as private) had to come out of DI, not that i had any but have excess in CB and Maintenance which is not included in I&E Kids expenses such as extra curricular activites, school trips have to come out of any CB or maintenance. Thought that it might help you a bit, don't be afraid to put more down for clothing and hairdressing is what i'm saying basically there's no way i could manage with £20 a month for hairdressing as son needs his hair cutting at least once a month and i £9 a time. I know prices do vary but have to say hairdressing in lincoln is expensive, I have friends who are from other areas and wait to have their hair done when they go back!!!
