New bank account

Newdiamond · 21 August 2009 at 4:26PM

Hi all, well today I crossed another hurdle, opened my cashminder account with coop. I was so nervous ringing them but the guy on the phone was very nice and helpful. Phew!!! Not long now, I'm in court Monday morning at 9am so I've got to do my forms tonight and make sure we have plenty toner in the printer. Whilst I am scared, I am also hugely relieved that this nightmare is going to end on Monday. Its amazing how quickly life can turn on its head but being pro-active about my debts has proved very cathartic in helping me move forward.
Phew!

Congratulations ND, every journey begins with the first step and you're well on your way. Good luck for Monday in case I don't get another chance to say it.

Hi ND,

We went BR last week so know how you are feeling now.

My experience was so much better than I expected and although I am waiting for the OR interview, I have started to feel much better these last few days.

We opened our co op cashminder the week before BR, its taken a while for the cards to come thru but you can go into a branch and ask for your new acc no. and sort code instead of waiting on post. This helped us cos we needed to arrange wages etc to be paid into the new acc before we went BR.

Good luck for Mon
