Can anyone tell me whether I've already had the interview with my OR yet please or whether anyones had similar experiences? I went bankrupt over 2 weeks ago and my OR first contacted me by phone a week later. She went through some financial things with me such as bank details, how much debt I had, etc. This took about half an hour. A week later she phoned again and spoke a bit more about my debt and how long I had gambled and how much, etc and informed me about my car. This talk lasted again about half an hour. What I would like to know is, is that the 'interview' or can I expect another phone call at further length. I haven't received any forms from the OR as regards my I&E yet, although she said she would be sending these in the next few days and I would also need to send her my various cc statements. I'm a bit confused and it seems as though I'm having lots of small phone calls rather than having 1 long one and getting it all over and done with. I don't think mine is a particularly complex case to be honest.

Anyone had similar experience?

Thanks

Youur interview has taken place,you can be assured of that, this does though as you experiences sometimes take place over 2 or 3 short calls rather than 1 long call, your next step is to do the Inc & Exp forms and agree your IPO/BRU etc

Really? Thanks Melanie. I thought the interview would have been more delving than it was. All the OR asked was how I had incurred most of the debts and over what period of time. No really intrusive questions. I was prepared for it to be really intensive and if that was the interview, then I am really pleased it wasn't as tough as I thought it would be. Just a bit strange the interview took place before the OR has looked at my statements though as I would've thought until they have a look at these, they can't really ask any questions as to why I have spent the amounts when I did and for what. I guess I will just have to wait until I receive the I&E from the OR and the information on what to do with the car.

I told you before hand not to worry - you were building it up in your head to be some massive thing but in reality its just to establish how you got in your situation - not difficult at all. You will be having a follow up chat though with regard to the BRO, but you are aware of that. Another milestone over with, onwards and upwards..have a good weekend and try to chill!

Thanks Melanie and apologies for so many questions. You would have thought I would stop now I am bankrupt, but they still seem to pop up every now and again. Hopefully once my IPO and BRU have been arranged I can finally start to relax and get on with my life. It's been a turmultuous few months and I have learned so much in such a short time, all thanks to you and many others on this site.

I'm spending the weekend with my mum, for mother's day, although I think it will be a case of helping her with household chores instead of flowers or chocolates. Maybe next year I will finally be able to treat her properly and thank her for all the support and financial help she has given me over the past few months.

Have a good weekend too Melanie.
