I am considering an IVA and was just wondering if I should open a new bank account and cancel all direct debits from my existing one. At the moment I am up-to-date with all payments to creditors - should i ensure i default to make them more likely to agree to an IVA?

You only need to open a new bank account if you bank with a lender to whom you are indebted. Also avoid HSBC accounts as this bank has a policy of closing them when they find out their customers have entered IVA proceedings.
