    Does anyone know and if not it might be worth someone investigating, but i have heard that if the money in your current account is a benefit credit such as child support, child tax credit etc then the banks cant take that to make up missed loan repayments etc

    If its true then that might be useful for someone.

    Haven't heard that before, but I hope it's true!
