Try Yorkshire Building Society Cash Transactor.
Can do direct debits.
Can have an ATM card.
Can be used at any Britannia or YBS branch.
Can do standing orders.0 -
Abbey offer a free business account if you open the account with £50, no charges for anything unless you pay in more than £4k a month or something like that I beleive, obviously read the small print before you sign but it looks good!0

Well, I had the same sort of dilemma, however I ended up opening a savings account, which is linked to my bank account (no credit checks then!) all my monies from Paypal get withdrawn to this savings account and then I just dip-in now and then by transferring the money from my savings account to my current account instantly online via my bank.
I hope this helps.0 -
