Cashplus Card

Hi Everyone

Is it a good idea to get the Cashplus card before bankruptcy?
Will the card be frezed aftet B?
Have you any experience of using it?

P.S. Forgive me my mistakes. English is my second language. I'm still learning.

    It doesn't matter as they do not credit check you when you apply, if you do get one before going bankrupt you may have to declare it on the petition, especially if you have money on it. I applied for mine after going bankrupt.
    Life is like a game of Snakes & Ladders, i almost made it to the top but now i'm at the bottom again and its a very long ladder to the top. I had it all and now its gone :eek:
    Well my 6 years are now up, now to start to rebuild my life again

    Hi, have you tried co op or barclays for a free basic account? I would definitely try for one of those before you declare bankruptcy if I were you! The co op's basic account is called cashminder, you can apply over the phone but definitely don't mention bankruptcy! Barclays account is called a cash card account and they will even open accounts for undischarged bankrupts so I would try them before I would go for a paid account.

    Thx,
    I'll try it as an alternative solution
    IMHO There are no clear rules, no partnership. They (banks) can freze or close your accont whenever they want. I'm self employed ( Internet business ) so I can not imagine the situation above.
