While it is not ideal to use the cards if you are desperate and it is only for essentials like food then you can use them.

Get yourself a new bank account straight away. The Co0op Cashminder, which can be oened over the phone and the Barclays Cash account,which you open in branch are the 2 BR friendly accounts.
