I have just discovered that you can not have on-line bamking unlessyou can show the banks your Cert of Discharge from the courts,who charge 60.00 for this.As we have a joint account it will cost 120.00.
All i want is to be able to control my account and not get into debt again.
Do any banks wavier this.

    Who's your account with?

    The discharge cert from court does cost...BUT if your on certain benefits etc you could get this for free.....BUT you could get written confirmation for free from your OR's office & then ask the bank would this be enough?

    Natwest & the co-op offer basic accounts with online functions (the co-op wouldnt ask for proof of discharge...the nat west would though)
