we were with first direct a side of HSBC and they gave us 14 days notice to close our account - it is advisable for him to open a new account somewhere and have his wages paid into that and all DD / SO come from that account - Co-Op and halifax have given us there basic accounts and we applied on line for both

Standard letter from HSBC I had a very similar letter when I took out my IVA from First Direct.

HSBC are well known for closing bank accounts of those in an IVA. They trawl the Insolvency Register.

Co-op are a good bank to use.

As others have said it's normal practice for the HSBC.

Good luck with your creditors meeting on the 8th, let us know how it goes won't you ? x
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.

Good luck with your creditors meeting. I know how you feel. Sign up to bank that you have no credit with. No overdraft allowed but no problems. Hope it all goes well.xx

Yeah I can't speak highly enough of the Co-Op (Wish more banks were ran ethically!)
1st payment Oct 2008, last payment Dec 2013. Certificate received March 2015 due to PPI claim.
