Kept bank account

I already banked with Barclays and nationwide using a basic account. After being declared bankrupt on Monday the OR has sent the letters advising release of any funds to me but both banks having contacted the insolvency teams at Barclays and Nationwide have advised that I can continue using my accounts. The only change is Barclays have needed to close the savings account and removed access to the app but can still use online banking. Staff at both banks were really helpful and kind.

now just waiting for the interview call, but I feel like I can start to move on. I have opened a basic account with Santander so plan to use that for general spending, Barclays gor direct debits and nationwide for some savings for yearly expenses (Nationwide have let me have saving account alongside my basic account) and food shopping. I feel like this should keep me organised and know what i actually have available.
