Checking possible cases after defaulting on bank obligations

Q: Hi I have defaulted with the bank and they bounced my cheque last 2017. I don`t know if I have a case, but last June 2019 my visa was renewed without any problem. Does that mean I don`t have any case or travel ban? Actually, I resigned now and will have my visa cancelled this coming Oct, 1st week. If my visa will be cancelled without any problem, does that mean also that I don`t have any pending case and/or travel ban? Please help. Thanks
