If you dont have any debts with the bank you are with or a company associated with them , you should be able to. Otherwise you would need to open another account with a non creditor bank.
You would be advised to open an account that is not with one of your creditors, but other than that, you can have a bank account. No overdraft facility is allowed though.

The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.
