Bankruptcy Advice - Disadvantages

Bankruptcy is personal insolvency’s “nuclear option”. That’s not to say it is not the right choice for many – it often is. But, life won’t be the same after becoming bankrupt – not least when it comes to rebuilding your credit rating in years to come:

  • All your assets, apart from those required for a basic standard of living, will be sold. This may include your house.
  • You will not be allowed to obtain more than £500 credit unless you first disclose that you are bankrupt
  • Any income you have in excess of that needed for your basic needs will have to be paid to your creditors.
  • Your job may be at risk: certain trades and professions will not allow you to work when bankrupt.
  • Your credit rating will be affected (probably for some time after your bankruptcy ceases) and there may be other restrictions, such as having your bank and credit card accounts closed.
  • Your bankruptcy will be advertised in newspapers.
