I received my forms regarding my BI today. It talks about either me or someone else buying the BI. I thought it was compulsary for a 3rd party to purchase the BI. The OR assistant who carried out my interview also said that it would be possible to buy our own BI. We have negative equity so the price would be a nominal £1 + fees. Can anyone explain this?
I'm actually quite relieved that I dont need to get anyone else involved. I just thought from reading on here that it was only a 3rd party that could purchase the BI.
Well it would be straight forward if we had the money but as we have both gone BR we have to find £424 pounds. As we were assessed as not having enough funds to contribute to an IPA this could take a while to save. I'm not stressing though - I'm sure we'll find a way forward.
