Hi,

I went BR last week. How long will it be until this shows on my credit file?

When I apply for a basic bank account, I am obliged to tell them if they don't ask? Co op account application was rejected because they couldn't verify me.

Thanks.

Hi
it's usually the same day or next day.
The credit reference agencies monitor both the London and Stubbs Gazette on a daily basis.

You do not have to disclose you are a bankrupt but if it were me I would.

I told the Co-op that I was BR and they still opened an account. Are you on the electoral register as I know the Co-op won't open an account if you're not.

Tomorrow is a mystery, yesterday is history, today is the present, a gift to make the most of.
