Posted - 19 January 2009 : 11:25:18 hi all,   
i have received my VR form from northern rock but i am a little concerned as to whether we should sign them or not, reason being, that they say that by signing you accept that any shortfall after the property sells you are saying that you accept they can pusue you for that debt, we are bankrupt now so not sure if we should be signing any agreements right now ???

just found this on the insolvencey website !
After the date of the bankruptcy order the mortgage loan creditor may ask you to sign a "deed of acknowledgment" of the outstanding debt. If you have signed such a deed the mortgage loan creditor can take action against you to recover any shortfall following the sale of the property.

Posted - 19 January 2009 : 12:15:06 We left our house in April 2007, we last paid the mortgage in January 2007, NR got a Possession Order in August 2007, (stupidly, I thought this meant it had been repossessed so we went bankrupt at end August 2007, but NR did not get a Warrant and change the locks until March 2008  |

Posted - 19 January 2009 : 12:10:59 Don't sign!!!
We sent our keys back and the mortgage provider said they'd send forms for us to sign back in December but they haven't as yet - they have verbally acknowledged receipt of the keys and we sent them recoreded delivery but we have not had a formal repossesion notice as such - what do you normally get - a certificate of repo or something?
We've informed the council to so they are no longer charging Council Tax - as far as I'm concerned its now the property of the MP - they can do what they want with it and any shortfall is theirs...

Posted - 19 January 2009 : 11:54:25 This is exactly what NR did with us too 
I refused to sign the forms and I just rang them up and told them why and to get on and repossess the house as soon as possible but they dragged it out for some unknown reason |

Posted - 19 January 2009 : 11:28:44 Hi
you should not sign this document under any circumstances. You've no need to sign anything in order for NR to repossess the property.
As you say, if you sign and return the document you will be liable for the shortfall despite the fact that you have included it in your bankruptcy.
