Hi everyone,
Just to let you know I recieved the letter from the IVA company today. It is all going ahead now so just have to wait until march... Does anyone know where I can get a bank account after the bankrupcy.
hi sam great to hear you sounding more positive x
i had a look on a site for you and i cant guarantee its accurate but it says clydesdale bank halifax, barclays and bank of scotland and the co-op do very basic accounts for undischarged bankrupts.
hopefully skip will help with this one. good luck hun x [:)]
You should be ok Julie. At least you can stay put!

The co-op cashminder is an excellent account, you can register for online banking set up DD's and always get thru to a live speaking northern person lol (no offence intended to anyone).
I opened mine over a year prior to BR as was in an IVA which failed I spoke to Co-op to advise them of what was going on and they said they would not freeze the account, to which they kept their words. Really rate Co-op I even got a second account with them after BR to seperate my bills from the day to day stuff.
Hope this helps and good luck, you will need to ring and ask specifically for a cashminder account, which will probably automatically get deferred but you will be approved usually within 48 hrs and would think you would have welcome pack within the week.
I've been using the Co-op Cashminder account and it's a good account. The Co-op customer service is very good, and the only bad thing I will say about them is they won't open a savings account for someone who is BR.
