Does your OH work?
The above is just a qick outline as to how the OR would look at your SOA, will probably need a bit of tweeking but will give you some idea.BSCno.87The only stupid question is an unasked oneLoving life as a Kernow Hippy0 -

From experiance on this board we know that the Co-op very, very rarely freeze an account and if it does get frozen then a quick call to the OR will sort it pretty quickly.
Barclays don't always offer the Connect card and will quite often only offer the Cash card. They are also a bit iffy with internet banking at the moment. Also people are finding it quite hard to open the account.
You shouldn't be running your account so you get charges either.
(the only people who have had major problems with pre-opened accounts are ones who have their OR in Brighton.)
No you're right I've never incurred any charges on any current atall in my life despite my financial difficulties with other creditors, but some just aren't that careful, and we have to give them their due.
Barclays give the Visa Debit card to everyone, they don't credit search the account, and it's a standard offering, no conditions or credit score threshold to pass to get the Visa card on their cash account; atleast not any more

My OH works but its my debt and im not planning on including them on the BR,they contribute to the household bills and pay the landline on the phone.Our utilities are in both our names so I dont know how this would work out ,after BR does my name come off gas ,electric water? I have talked things through with them and because of the job they do I cant ask them for help (long story ).0

You need to show how much your OH contributes to the joint household bills, not their full wage just the contribution.
You can still stay on the utilities if you want to, that is not a problem.BSCno.87The only stupid question is an unasked oneLoving life as a Kernow Hippy0
