who should I get a business account with

Options
After several years of low credit and finally seeing the last of my ccjs gone from my credit reports, i was hoping to get back on track and make my life as a self employed person easier with a credit card to make day to day purchases thus allowing money to get into my account easier. All i have been allowed is a halifax basic easycash account 'Whoop de doo'

So far turned down flat for credit cards

After looking through this site, being self employed also goes against me!

Am I stuffed or is there a bank account that will allow me to open a business account with a debit card.

One more thing before I completely bore you My wife does have one ccj against her which expires in September.

Any advice would be greatful

    Without knowing the full extent of your financial situation, it's difficult to make an accurate assessment. You will probably be able to get a business accoiunt with NatWest but expect to be given only a solo card with a caveat that they will consider a debit card if your account has run satisfactorily for ,say, six months.
