Hi,
I have the same problem, it would be good to hear how you got on with RBS?
I've just come out of a trust deed and secured a very good contract for a year that is expected to take in £100k+.
I tried to open a business account with HSBC but was declined. Like most of the bloggers above, i dont need anything but an account to pay into.
I thought I would be able to present my TD discharge certificate but it was a flat refusal from HSBC.
I dont really want to go with anyone except a recognised lender but I only have 4 weeks before I have to submit my first invoice!
Any advice would be appreciated.0 -
I have the same issue..........about to go into DMP and can't find sole trader account anywhere - in NI so no option of Natwest or RBS
Any advice would be extremely welcome!0 -

I have had a similar problem. I've been refused from Natwest! Despite them saying it was because I had an IVA in place or been declared bankrupt, which I have not been either! So. I was screwed! Then I discovered Bath Building Society savings account. There are no credit checks so I got one and I can store lots of money in there. But there is no card to make purchases and although you can transfer in to it using BACS from any account you can only send money out to one nominated account...so the solution was to get a cash plus business pre-paid card. This can only store up to £15k at a time but that is plenty for me and the purchases I make. I can also pay bills/standing orders,etc from the cash plus. So my solution was bath building society for the main bulk of the money and cash plus for the day-to-day purchases. It's working well. Both accounts are accounts named under my business LTD company name so it's all easy to manage for tax purposes etc.
So that's my solution for now. When I have trading history I'll upgrage.
ps. It really get's on my nerves how narrow minded people make comments like "No you can't.
You pays your money you lose your monies - simples.
Does your accountant not have any contacts with any banks?"
Nobody knows in full someone else's situation or why they are there! Typically from a MANC! grrrrrrrrrrrrrr hate!
I'm not going to be stopped or pegged back by anyone or anything that get's in my way! Good luck to you all. Hope this helped0 -
You will come unstuck faster than you think with an attitude like that.
