Can I have a Bank Account if I go Bankrupt?

Yes.  However, if your bank is also a creditor involved in your bankruptcy, it may be wise to open an account at a different bank.  This would ensure that any deposits are not 
accidentally seized against your debt with that bank. If a bank refuses to open an account for you, you should contact your Trustee.

No. Filing bankruptcy is not a crime. It is not considered failure in fulfilling your legal civic duties. It is a perfectly legal way to deal with overwhelming debt.
