Any free Client Bank Accounts?

Hi,
I'm starting a new business and several banks do good deals on current accounts such as the A+L business account. But I also need a client account on top of this to keep client funds separate to the business account for legal reasons and it seems the big boys back off at this point.
Anyone got any brilliant ideas please?

    Can you just not open a no2 a/c and designate it clients a/c?

    Unfortunately not. They just seem to only want you to have a single account. May have to go to one of the other banks for a second (cheap) account.

    Might be better if you transferred to a proper bank.
    Some banks don't mind offering more than one account and have designated client 'call' accounts.
