Have you tried Nationwide, Co-op or Yorkshire Bank?

We still have a Nationwide Account and have had it all through the IVA. No overdraft and no cheque book but full debit card.

Rite update the girl in nationwide was lovely she's made me an appointment for the 24th August as my 6 years is up the 18th August. She going to see what she can do if l carnt get a current one then she put me on a basic one then after a few months l be able to upgrade. She was really helpful more than the others had been.

Well done that girl at Nationwide -- always better to give your custom to the banks that deserve it :-)
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

Good PR for Nationwide and maybe another benefit of remaining a Mutual.

Ano lesley and l felt quite embrassed every time l had to tell them my situation. Just hoping that l manage to get with nationwide but she said she do what she can but suppose it rests on what my credit rating will say.

Oh we've all been in a same/similar position. I'm glad you're finding the forum helpful. We all try to help one another and support each other. The forum has been a godsend to me through my IVA. Made lots of friends on here who now extend to off the forum too.

You ask away like you say there's always someone here.

I've been given an iPhone through work and would love to have use Apple Pay. Anyone know of a Basic IVA account that does Apple Pay?

If not. Is there a workaround. For example topping up a prepaid card?

Another plug for Nationwide: I moved to their basic acc before IVA was agreed and have found it excellent, debit card, full function on line banking, no o/d facility, a year or two ago stopped charging for refused payments, can add a deposit acc and transfer between that and current acc instantly on line, manage dds and set up and manage regular and one off direct instant payments to other people. Just sent me new contactless card. Think I will stick with them after IVA.
