Ahh if only that was the case, in reality bankruptcy is only a tiny part of what the clerk does, they often have to ring the OR to find out what to put on the bankruptcy order, and i have seen many SOA's that have passed inspection whilst only being partly completed

to be fair to them though they usually get next to no training and and earn rubbish wages

The clerks are also concerned that their role in bankruptcy process may be removed or changed so from the ones i have spoken to they are not really that interested in big picture but just want to make certain that the petitioner understand what is going on and them and the paperwork passes through the court process "happy and as quick as poss"

as you say debt info they have little or no training but the ones i have met have always tried to put the person at ease and be as helpful as poss

I agree with Debtinfo, the clerk really shouldn't be commenting as once the person leaves the court I very much doubt the clerk would find out what happened with the case.

BTW Debtinfo, you're right about the court service paying rubbish money! My first job was at the court service and money was very tight!

Only when the last tree has died, the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realise that we cannot eat money.

Last IPA payment made on 28th June 2010 - it's over at last!

Hi,
Just to let you know i had the interview with the RO today. Based on my current circumstances i will not have to make any contributions to my creditors, and as long as the creditors send all the information that the RO requires, they believe that i will be discharged 4 to 6 months.
Just some info for anyone else, my car is currently worth approx £1200, as i dont work they have a small interest in it. But due to my circumstances, my partner needs it for work, and i have my children from a previous marriage that i have to collect, they are recommening that the car is not taken. And cant see that it will.
Ill keep you upto date
