Posted - 21 February 2012 : 18:03:25 hi a family member of mine has been made bankrupt by lowell portfolio, from a debt that took place in 1995, i believe the sum she was made bankrupt for was around £800. unfortunatley she buried her head in the sand and didnt realise what the implications would be. after visiting the OR yesterday they have told her that as she has equity of around £90k in her property she will needto find the sum of £9k or she will lose her house. she was also told that she would incur around £10k in legal fees and costs so she would have to pay back around £20k!!! some of her creditors do not wish to lodge proof of debt and are happy to take reduced payments as they have been doing for some time. she was also lead to belive that any equity left over would not go to her, which i think is inaccurate. whilst i do not condone not baying creditors i do think that making someone bankrupt for such a historic and small debt is so scandalous. does she have a good case to annul the bankrupcy?

Posted - 21 February 2012 : 18:51:41 you can be made bankrupt if you owe more than £750.
So there are 2 ways to annul a bankruptcy,
1, prove that there was some problem with the process of making her bankrupt
