Safe account

Good evening all

I have been advised to ask my question here from the Debtfree Wannabee....

I am at the very beginning of a DMP journey having just opened a safe bank account today. My question is if I use CASS to switch, will the overdraft from my existing bank transfer to the new account? The new bank account has no overdraft facility.......

Many thanks

    If you wish to switch an overdrawn account via CASS, you have to find the money from somewhere to pay off the overdraft first - that doesn't necessarily need to be an overdraft on the new account but you'd need to find it from somewhere.
