Does anybody know if its possible to remove a name from a joint bank account, if both parties are willing?
The account is with Barclays - if that makes a difference??

Thanks
Sarah

    Yes you will both need to pop into Barclays and both sign and agree that one of you is going to be removed from the account.
    Time is a path from the past to the future and back again. The present is the crossroads of both. :cool:

    Yes as above - as long as the account is in credit or the person taking over the account has a credit score good enough for the bank to agree overdraft facilities for the o/d amount.
