I have been advised by debtline that bankruptcy would be my best option. Federal Management have sent me a letter threatening to bankrupt me and I am wondering if i just leave it whether it would automatically start happening. What is the best course of action moving forward?

Hi,
You haven't given much info to go on and it sounds like you need expert advice.
How much do you owe? To how many creditors do you owe?
If they are genuinely threatening to bankrupt you they must think they'll get more money back that way.
They could be just trying to scare you. In reality, if you were made bankrupt, would they end up better off?

It really depends upon what you want to do. Have a chat with an Insolvency firm to explore all options before doing anything.
If you then feel BR is for you let Federal go ahead -- it will save you £750 in fees.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

You should certainly seek a second opinion to make sure bankruptcy is the right option for you. If so then as Foggy says let the creditor pay for it.
