Hi and welcome to the forum.
You shouldn't have any problem with them. Are any of your creditors related to them?
I opened an account with them just prior to my IVA and have had no problems. Not sure if they know though!

You say they {Halifax)have just found out about it...they must have combed throuh the insolvency reg'.

Two things can happen here - your account is downgraded to basic account and your visa debit withdrawn/you'll not offered loans/Over Draft facilities revoked or........... nothing will happen and you keep your account....but thats upto TSB's policy as its new owners.

I cannot see that they will have a problem, if this is just a normal current account with no overdraft facility.

Hubby's IVA providers recommended him open a basic account with Halifax and for the 3 years he had his IVA, they were fine.

In response to Kalla's post, when I was in my IVA I had my current account with Lloyds TSB. I kept the full account with them, and they were happy for me to keep the account when I went bankrupt.
