Hi
I was made bankrupt in October,2008.Before that I was told that my Barclays account will be frozen if I'm declared bunkrupt(I have a new account with the co-operative bank now).To my amazement the bank still takes away the mothly payments for the loan and charges me for overdraft limit.I would like to add that the loan and the overdraft personal account is included in the SOA(statement of affair).When I contacted my official receiver I was told not to worry about it but I'm bit concerned.I'd appreciate any comments. |

I also had this problem with Barclays - they were adding interest and charges on for a couple of months after my BR, however i let the OR know and also sent them a copy of the BR Order with a covering letter stating that they were not allowed to keep writing to me and any further letters would be classed as harassment....i didnt get any more after that 
Good luck!
Onwards and Upwards is the way im going :-0)
From "Moneyworries" to "Movin On" in 3 months is fantastic :-))

I would definitely send a copy of your BR order to the bank.
I had a problem with Littlewoods contacting me, but when I sent them a copy of my BR order I didn't hear from them again.

Your debt is covered by the BO so you have no worries on that score, but I would write to the bank as stated above so that you eliminate any nasty computer generated letters.
As an aside the banks are always quick to write to a client when they feel client is in the wrong, so I would just have to do the same to them!

Too right! They keep doing this with IVA's as well, taking money out that they shouldn't.
It's about time they got their act together.
