I am new to all this so cannot give you an answer. All I can say is we are having to use part of our overdraft to pay for ours next week. I do not see how people can do much else. If you had the sort of money to pay to go bankrupt then you probably would not need to go bankrupt in the first place. I...

Thanks Melanie, thanks Viki

Our daughter has been giving us 125 pounds a month for housekeeping. She is 19 and at uni but living at home. She also works in a chemist on a Saturday. She is currently undergoing heart tests and is giving her notice in at the chemist. We will no longer be receiveing the 125 off her each month for ...

Thanks all, I will stop panicing - I am sure I will look back on this in a month or so and realize you are all right. My hubby keeps telling me to calm down!!!

We will come through the other side.

It is just so terrifying!! I know in my heart of hearts we will get through it. Worse things happen. It is just I am usually so strong and not easily phased I feel everything is out of control. If I had not found this forum I do not know where I would be. Thank you all soooooooo much. I hope I will ...

Thanks Viki and Debbie

Thanks Viki, thanks Debbie. I keep going off into panic mode[:(] I feel my head is going to explode!! Another sleepless night coming on. How does everyone manage to get through this whole process - the only good thind I seem to be losing weight and have needed to do that for a long time [:)] Thanks ...

When we go bankrupt I will have received my months wages. Will that be taken away from us?? I may have asked this question but my mind has gone to jelly. I was planning on keeping that months wages to tide us over for the coming month, for food, gas, electricity, fuel to work etc. Then the same the ...

Thanks Viki, that sounds right to me. I hope it is - I dont want to slip into panic mode again!!

Hi Can I ask yet another question. When my husband and I go bankrupt (in around 10 days) does anyone know how they will treat my wages? My husband is redundant at the end of this coming week, he will definatley have no disposable income. He will not get any benefit as we spent 18 months in America a...

Hi algonetsup, I am so sorry you are feeling so awful. Please do not panic - a week ago I was feeling like ending it all (for insurance) then I stumbled across this forum - and what a relief - reading the posts and chatting to people has been a lifeline for me and my family. We are about to complete...

Thanks Viki.W

A great link, it will help me loads. I did not even think of things like dentist, optician etc.

Thanks Kallis, I will go and check that out now. I am hoping it gives the amounts you are allowed for each, eg food for 3 one hundred pounds a week.

Can anyone tell me where I might find a list of allowable living expenses.

I am looking for a list so I do not forget things like prescriptions, dentists etc. I am sure I have read somewhere that you are even allowed to put down for haircuts.
