I disagree Phil I got a Yorkshire Building Society Internet saver with Link card Post BR as have others on this forum without problems:) Of course I also have my Co-Op account but Yorkshire is useful for saving for Xmas/Birthday/Holiday and Car Expenses which were allowed on my SOA so I do not think OR would question as it will always be within the £100's not £1000's.....

as I said in prev post....you'll struggle till discharge......hole only went bankrupt on wed...:rolleyes:

problem with the banks is no consistency...what they offer to one they dont always offer to others

Phil, I went BR on 30/3 and got Yorkshire account on 4/4/09 so 5 days after BR - I would advise anyone to go for it;) Also a few people have opened after BR on my advice and got the account, I am only giving my experience of course but there is nothing to lose for anyone who wants to try:D

Applied for my YBS saver this morning and have been accepted which is excellent. After my troubles with Abbey this is great news as once i get my compensation from Abbey i will close the account. You guys who have a Abbey e saver just hope that nothing ever goes wrong as there customer service and even complaints department are hopeless.

Just been looking at savings accounts first direct are offering 7% on a isa .. amazing bankrupts can afford to save seems a bit bizzzar but great news

Well true but i have come out the other side. I dont have alot of saving as i am current unemployed but im making sure i have a great debt free future.

That is very true and i look at things so differently now. I look at things and know i own them as apposed to what i owe and ant afford on them. Its a strange feeling but also strangely a warm feeling.

Yeah i second that Phil. Alot including me said this would change when the companies realise how many of us there are about.
