Is it the Cashminder account?
If it is, then you keep your account as usual and the OR will not want your card.

No, you won't have to hand your card over. The OR won't be interested in your account.

My relatively recent experience was the OR asked which account I wanted to use as my day to day account. I also contacted that bank the day after BR. I had the account card 'downgraded', so that I could still use that card online, but only draw cash out of that banks cash machines.
I had various other bank/building society accounts. NONE of them were 'closed down', although restrictions were placed, i.e some of them I could only use in branch with a 'book' (building societies), other bank accounts I could still do online banking.
The OR's comment to me at interview, was that he doesn't instruct banks to 'shut down' accounts. Its down to the banks how they handle their accounts.
-------------- Views expressed are my own personal views, based on what has happened during my own BR process unless otherwise stated. Professional advice should always be sought. |

Perhaos it's also down to the individual OR as well.

Tell the OR representative that the Cashminder is to service the BR and you will be fine - an excellent account and wonderful bank - good luck |
