It may be better to start a new topic as this one was last updated 18 months ago.
The Co-op should allow you to open a Cashminder account as this is very BR friendly. If they refuse then Think banking will definitely accept you however they charge a fee each month for the account. |

Ang
simply asking wether you sorted the car out prior to bankruptcy but have picked up the other thread as well.
The best plan - as Brett says - is to negotiate with the official receiver for the value of the car.

They have finally caught up with the others then Halifax and bank of scotland (HBOS) have been doing this for some time and over time more and more were doing so.

Hi Bret,
In Barclaycard small print, they have terms for general right of set off within the Barclays Group, If the account were frozen with surplus balances at the time of bankruptcy they would seek to exerise the right.
In recent cases I have had post bankrupty funds applied to the account and Barclays sought to setoff against the Barclaycard liability - they realised their error that when the line was cut there were no available funds to setoff and reversed the transaction sameday,confirming that the account could continue to operate.
This was confirmed by Barclays Financial Services Legal Notices unit

Hi Alan,
Welcome to the forum,
Barclaycard are a different company to Barclays so it would not matter if monies were owed to Barclaycard at point of bankruptcy, howvever if you owe money on a barclays account they will not supply a basic account.
Alan is correct in what he is saying reagding the timing of opening an account.

Hi Ang,
Barclays are fine if it is cash card account - only last week I had confirmation from Barclays Legal Notices unit that two of myclients accounts would continue in the usual manner not withstanding Barclaycard debt written off in Bankruptcy. One word of caution in general if account is opened prior to bankruptcy ensure that at the time of bankruptcy only small balance held say under £5 ( but ensure that not overdrawn )

Hi Ang
did you sort the car out before you went bankrupt - if not it is too late to change it yourself as it is technically owned by the OR now.

hello,
as i declaired my self bankrupt last week, my bank accout with halifax was frozen with out me knowing... i tried to open a new account in NATWEST, thats the first time i have ever felt ashamed of what i have done, i was made to feel like a little child.
I some how came accross this site, and people seem to be given a 90% to the CO-OP group, and tried the CO-OP and they will give me a decition within 2-3 working days...
Is there any other banks that will help the bankrupt? |
