If you are planning to declaer yourself bankrupt, you do not have to worry about an old laptop or even a TV which when purchased was worth £1500. These things will not be of interest to the official receiver and you will be allowed to keep them. You will also be able to keep your mobile phone and maintain the contractual payments as long as these are reasonable in the context of your living expenses allowances.
