I have a joint account with Abbey with all the facilities and includes an overdraft. My husband had an IVA (I didn't) and like you Abbey wasn't a creditor but he did have MBNA as one. We started the IVA December 2005.

We were allowed by our IP to keep the account going, as long as we didnt use the overdraft facility. The only difference we noticed was when my husband's debit card expired, he got a new one but it was only for 12 months at a time (mine was 2 years).

Thank you kandh for your prompt reply , but what will happen to the joint account if i fail IVA and go bankrupt are they going to freeze the account or only my part of my account as my partner has no debts
regards

Sorry but I really dont know what would happen. I think it may depend on the individual OR but hopefully one of the forum experts or someone who is/has been br will be along soon to help with that one.

Hi
If you were to become bankrupt your joint account may be frozen,so best to have yout name removed before you take this path
There will be no problem keeping it if you enter into an IVA
