Dear Caggers, My friend has been claiming ESA (support group) and DLA for a few years now, after a severe stroke...... He lives with his mother (who is a pensioner) and cares for him. They had a random visit from a "multi benefit review officer" with no prior arrangement, however, my friends mother refused entry and they have to telephone to arrange a re-visit with both my friend and his mother in attendance. Obviously, to have an unannounced visit causes great anxiety. Could anyone clarify what this is for? Is it to do with ATOS medicals? My friend has never claimed carer's allowance as he thought he was not entitled to as its his mother and this is exempt......

Bankruptcy stigma, advice of outstanding debts
Happyandcontent replied to Happyandcontent's topic in General Debt Issues
I wondered if I could get some advice/clarification. I have numerous debts: Credit cards-I currently pay token payments to Mortgage shortfall from repossessed property-no court judgement (I plan to challenge the amount they say I owe) , just repetitive letters requesting £65k Past utility debts-no repayment plan set yet My situation: I am in receipt of ESA and DLA, both mobility/care components (classed as vulnerable?) I do not own any assets accept a car worth £2500 (jointly owned, I am owner on the log book, as it was cheaper to insure and joint owner is named driver) My questions are: 1. My main concern in bailiffs taking the car, can they do this if its jointly owned? 2. At present, as I write in assuming that my creditors can only send debt collectors at this stage? (with no power to seize goods) 3. Can a bailiff be instructed by one of the creditors without a court order? 5. If a bailiff cannot be instructed without a court order, would I be able to go to court and set up a payment plan to stop a bailiff taking the vehicle? Your advice would be greatly appreciated.- 39 replies

Thank you, yes, i was thinking to try & get some wiped atleast before i make the harsh decision of BR. Maybe i am avoiding the inevitable and shying away by trying this current route.- 39 replies

S78 is what I thought but am uncertain......I am unable to afford the BR fee as I am on ESA and DLA. I am probally grasping at straws with this route I am about to encounter, in a hope that some debts get wiped.- 39 replies
