Bit of advice if anyboby can help , my teenage daughter is wanting to open savings account with a bankcard so she can withdraw etc . Just wondering will they credit check wife as shes gona be the adult with her ? ( iva in my name only ). Also any good banks / societys ? . Got keep away from tsb , natwest and barclays .

Our young'un opened an account with the Swinton while we were (still are) in our IVA's, no problems at all. We are trustees of the account.

I believe Yorkshire Building Society has a range of accounts too. Many forum members have accounts there with no trouble too.

Thanks for that Foggy , wife did mention Yorksire as well . hopefully fingers crossed no problems , why should my kids suffer cos of my mess

Your daughter should be able to go where she likes and I would think a mutual like the Nationwide should be considered as their mortgage deals are quite good [when she needs one].

My son has a tsb account. They were our biggest creditors and he hasnt had a problem!

We have a yorkshire bs online saver which is pretty good and has a cashcard.

We opened accounts for our little ones with nationwide and Lloyds without any problems while in iva

Hope your daughter managed to get a savings account opened.
