Do I need to hoard these documents?
« on: April 11, 2004, 03:04:22 PM »
Bank statements, phone bills, correspondence with the bank going back till about 1997, credit card statements, P45s (document you are given when you leave work with National Insurance contributions on), receipts etc.
I am trying to have a serious clear out, but don't really know the importance of all this stuff? Does anyone?

Doh!
You see, that's what I mean... I was hoping I could throw them away!

Hang on, under English law, you can't pursue unpaid bills / clerical mistakes older than 6 years AFAIK. Is it different under Scottish law?

@ AccyD

Thanks for that - the bank statements represent the biggest proportion of bumf I have, so I might have to take great pleasure burning them in my stove  :-)
