Hi

To be honest i would open an account with a bank that has no link to any of your creditors. I have heard tales on here of the creditor taking from one account to pay off debts held in another account that has arrears.

Yeah yellowmonkey is correct. Lloyds take money out of my current account to pay my CC so I know they can and do do it. Better to open an account where you owe no money
