Yes, you will need 3 copies of the forms unless you are petitioning at the High Court in which case it is only 1 copy. Scanning the original will be fine.
If you have put the Barclays account details on the form then there is a chance that this 'may' be frozen for a couple of days. You will have a chat with the OR's Assistant later today or maybe early tomorrow to go through a couple of things on the SOA (confirmation of address) so you can mention to them that you need the account to remain open. If it is frozen then it can take up to 5 days to unfreeze so you should contact your bank and see if you can speed things up. They will need confirmation from the OR that they have no interest in the account.
Hopefully the account will not be frozen and everything will go smoothly.
