Well done, that's great news.:j
Although it wouldn't hurt to set up a basic account with someone else , even if you use it to put the odd £5 in here and there. You never know when you might need a back upAccept your past without regret, handle your present with confidence and face your future without fear0 -

I'd still set up an account elsewhere if I were you.0 -
