Glad he's called them now though.
He'd probably be best just getting the Co-Op account for now, he can always try and open a Barclays account later if he needs two accounts, or just open another Co-Op one...
Sorry it looks like i was having a dig, i wasnt!
I normally say exactly what i need to and nothing else, by this i mean getting straight to the point and not beating around the bush!
apologies again.0 -

Have they changed the rules? i went BR in november 2009?
Thanks again for everyones replies, the reason i asked as i said, my situation is different from my brothers, i was the sole bread winner. My brothers company has been knocked, so hes used his own money etc to try and keep it going but with no success, so he is facing bankruptcy.
Him and his wife are spending the weekend discussing there options, as they are both going to have to go BR or she wil be stuck with half the debt.
Anyway thanks again for the advice on partners and banks.:money:

Don't worry, wasn't getting paranoid but didn't want you to think I was being critical with my words.
We could go round in circles apologising for being blunt with each other.
