Great to hear! ...at the risk of repeating myself, don't forget - Credit Unions open savings accounts even for un-discharged BR's - not lining the pockets of shareholders is good in my book

Hi Gardener
As an undischarged BR, if I open a savings account with a credit union- won't the OR see the money as disposable income???0 -
Not if its money you have allocated for holiday , mot, etc. Also don't let it build up to a few thousand then the OR may have issue.BSCno.87The only stupid question is an unasked oneLoving life as a Kernow Hippy0

No...[if as tigerfeet says above]....the OR agrees with you over your living expenditure.
But the OR has no interest in how you use that allowance..or on what.No, I don't think all other drivers are idiots......but some are determined to change my mind.......0
