I have got 11 days to go until my bankruptcy hearing and am really scared. I ran up a large amount of debt on credit cards and debt consolidation loans through sheer stupidity. when I realised I was in trouble I contacted the CCCS who advised me at the time to go bankrupt. I didn't want to do this and managed to arrange informal payment plans with all my creditors in 1996. Now my partner has left and I don't have any money to make these payments. I haven't taken any more credit since 1996 but I have read other bankruptcy sites and am now worried about what the OR will percieve as blameworthy. Can anyone help?

In your case I see nothing at all to worry about, you have tried to pay your debts & not taken any new ones on.

Thanks for that RHB. I am still scared but it makes me feel a bit better about it.

I agree with RHB. If you haven't taken any new credit for 13 years and tried to repay the existing credit I don't think the OR will have a problem.

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