Being a signatory on a business bank account...

is that allowed as an undischarged bankrupt? I have never seen anything to say it isnt allowed, but wanted to be sure.

I have been a signatory previously on a business bank account and my recollection is that you simply sign forms, and no credit check is done on you as an individual - I am now desperately wondering whether to tell my new employers about my bankruptcy as I will probably be a signatory on their bank account. Obviously I won't have any authority to sign cheques other than payment for invoices from other organisations :o
