no..I very much doubt they do. Some banks have rules regarding ongoing account activity and in the past banks like HSBC and First Direct have closed accounts to those in IVA'S.

If it were me I would have a basic bank account set up as a precaution with someone like the co-operative to fall back on should you get challenged in any way

What the banks do is very much up to each bank. However, with the current pandemic taking up much of their resources, I expect trawling bank accounts to see what you are spending on is unlikely to be a priority.

The IVA becomes legally binding if and when it is accepted by creditors at the initial creditors meeting.

They do not, as far as I know, have a set policy --- it will depend on the full picture, the figures and, dare I say, how they feel on the day !

Many with debts to both Natwest and to Barclaycard have successfully got IVAs accepted.

It all depends on what happens on the day. Each IVA is individual and we cannot say how they will vote.

No one has said they do not accept IVA --- no one will know until the meeting.

IF the IVA is rejected then you have to find other ways to pay the debt .... maybe with a Debt Relief Order, or a Debt Management Plan, before worrying about bankruptcy.
