If you can't remember just be honest and tell her that. When I had my interview my credit cards weren't even mentioned, only my loans.

Only when the last tree has died, the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realise that we cannot eat money.

I have exactly the same concerns. Some of my debts are from years ago and they have been sold on time and again to debt collection companies and some of them I can't even remember who the original debt was with and whether it was a loan, cc or overdraft. Goodness knows what the Or will think of me but nothing I can do other than be honest. Am absolutely dreading it.




OMG so worried and not sleeping...Went Br 20th July 2010...Just the OR to face now then countdown for 1 year.

Honestly, if you don't know or can't remember tell the examiner that. It's far better to be honest than to try and make up reasons.

Good luck both of you x

As Skippy says - just be as clear as you can

Most debts accrue over a period of time and are spent on normal household living

If you used the loans, credit cards to buy specific items - cars, caravans, furniture, house extensions/repairs - then you can let the OR know roughly what and when, but usually it is just a combination of small items over a period of time (plus interest and charges!)

Don't worry about the OR's response or attitude - just tell them what you know and if you don't know just say so
