Good Morning, It is very unlikely that you will have to close your Bank account down. If you decide to go down the financial route of bankruptcy, it would be advisable to be honest with your new bank account provider, as they will more likely be understanding straight from the start of the banking relationship. If you are unfortunate and are made to close the account down there are two banks that will provide bank accounts even though a bankruptcy order has been issued. These banks are Co-operative (Cash minder Account) and Barclays (Cash Card Account). I hope this information helps.
