Hi sharon and welcome to the forum

You must put the credit card down as a debt in your bankruptcy application, and your bank account is therefore likely to be frozen. Providing the OR gives permission for the account to be released, the bank may allow you to retain it, but I would personally open up an account with a bank to whom you do not owe any money as a safety net.
