I agree with Wrinkles, get a new bank account that is not linked to the bank you're with now. As Wrinkles said get a basic account with the co op bank. When you have opened that, close your old one and set up a SO to pay the loans back. Write to them (always write) and let them know that you will be paying them back at x (what you can afford) amount per month. But you must close your old account, as they all have your card number and as soon as your wages go in, they will take what they want out, and probably leave you with nowt!!:mad: Don't forget to let work know your new account number! I don't know how long it takes to get a new card through, but an account number you should get straight away.0

What do you propose?I agree with Wrinkles, get a new bank account that is not linked to the bank you're with now. As Wrinkles said get a basic account with the co op bank.
