Debt management and self employment

Hi all

Me and my husband are thinking of doing a debt management plan. We've spoken to CCCS and they're going to get a counsellor to kindly phone us back in a couple of weeks time.

This morning we changed our bank account from the Royal Bank of Scotland to the Nationwide. We have a credit card, loan and a overdraft with RBS.

My husband and his business partner also have a business account with RBS, in which they have a £10k overdraft.

My question is if we go through with the debt managent plan would the RBS be able to go into his business account to reclaim money for the loan, credit card or the overdraft?

I'm not sure that they could get another business account really.

Thanks :o

    I would hazard a guess that they can go into his business account as they say in T&Cs that they can take money out of any account within that institution.
