Hi all,

Had my OR interview this morning and to be honest i don't know what i was worried about.

My examiner was a real good guy, never patronised me or made me feel guilty in any way. No interest in my car, nor my wifes car (which i gave her a few months ago so was worried about it being looked upon as disposing of assets), suggested i had £100 surplus cash so wanted an IPA of £50, i suggested i didn't have £100 surplus and after a little bit of negotiating he decided not to give me an IPA after all. Off the record he said my case looked straight forwrd enough (other than my house, which is my next battle) and i may even get ED. All in all a good interview and i am pleased with the outcome (so far).

Note to others : if the OR suggests an IPA, talk it through and if you really haven't got any spare to pay into an IVA you might just persuade them to have a re-think.

Note to others: if you are worried about your OR interview, don't be. Be prepared and everything will be ok.

I have a feeling my notice is going to be in today's paper so chere's to hoping today is an 'unofficial newspaper reading boycott' eh.

Thats really good to hear Hammy as I have been very worried. I dont think we will get an IPA now as I worked out disposable income to be about £25-£50 (depending on things they may not allow), however have just been informed that mortgage is to jump up £85 pm at the time I go BR!!!!
