I completed my Iva a few years ago and I looking to switch my NatWest account to a Barclays one. Barclays were a creditor on my previous Iva. I have applied online for a current account and I have been accepted but will they close the account once they realise I was in debt to them? I really don't want them taking my saving post Iva. Any help would be great.

No -- they cannot take any monies to offset the old debt, which has been legally written off. Should they decide to close your account at any time they have to return the monies in said account to you.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

I think you will be fine. All credit checks will have been done and they won't have any reason to do anymore.
