Hi and welcome to the forum.
Can I suggest you start with opening a new bank account . The COOP provide an account called CASHMINDER and it is a basic bank account and they are fine if you are Br.
The account offers telephone & internet banking plus a debit card DD's and SO's.
You can open it by going to a branch or by telephone - there is no online application .

Hi Nataliaw and welcome to the forum.
In order to ascertain if BR is right for you. I really need a bit more information: 1. Do you own your home? If so, is there any equity? 2. do you have any valuable assets like a car? 3. What do you do for a living? 4. What is your disposable income (ie. once mortgage/rent, bills, food & travel etc is paid, but before any unsecured creditors)?
