If it is a basic bank account then it should be OK.
If in any doubt open a Co op Cashminder account prior to bankruptcy.
That will certainly be OK.

Hi,
I agree - the Co-op are really BR friendly and you can do most things with the account - direct debits have salaries, payments made into the account.
Good luck, Richard

HI
Barclays have tobe informed, although they will find out about BR Anway, they shut all accounts down so you would need to go in a reopen it after BR, Thats what my branch manager told me anyway
Best of Luck

I would ask your branch what their policy is. I was told by Lloyds that although they didn't generally allow undischarged BRs an account I would be able to keep mine.
