After completing a scottish trust deed, is it best to change a cash account to a current account if you are needing to apply for credit to repay a home equity loan?

    As far as I know a trust deed is basically a Scottish IVA

    It may be depending on how ago the trust deed started that a normal current account isn't an option

    For a home equity loan (mortgage ?) I expect the type of account won't matter, it'll be your overall history, your past insolvency being the big issue

    Your trust deed should be removed from credit files6 years from start date, this is when your ability to get credit should improve
