in Debt-free wannabe
Hi,
I'm currently in debt and paying it off with a dmp.
I owe money to-
HSBC
Halifax
Mint
Egg
MBNA

I have an Abbey national account which is a bank that is not connected to the ones that i owe money too, however I really need a separate current account as I dont want my wages and my student loan going in the same account this year so its easier for me to manager.
Can anyone tell me if theres a bank i can get a basic current account with who isnt connected to any of the ones i owe money to? Thanks

    Not sure if it's connected to any of the above but I've opened a Barclays Cash Card account, nice basic no frills account.

    Nationwide or co-op are both good choices.
    None of yours are linked to Barclays so they would be alright as well.
