    I started with the same level of debt and a lot less income everyone is different.

    You can run a basic bank account as a bankrupt, however your bank may close the one you have now or downgrade it.

    I wasn't infering that you were wrong, but that you had a lot more to lose. And this will have affected the choices you made. :D

    OP, We now have 2 bank accounts!! Before we only had 1.

    I have received a pm asking me not to engage with Broken hearted. Stating that this board does not need another war.
    Firstly BH and I have cleared the air and she seems like a perfectly reasonable person to me.
    Secondly I have absolutely no intention of warring with anyone.
    Thirdly BH had told me that she had bought a house at the right time and had a great mortgage. I felt this important to take into account, as clearly her path may be different to someone who is not a homeowner. I was not critising or arguing but trying to help the OP.

    Broken hearted. I categorically was not picking fault, but adding to your info.

    I'd like to confirm that, BH & Foxy are like a couple of Nuclear Super Powers who would never consider launching pre-emptory strikes on each other. They're both lovely people with a lot to offer to others :D:D
