Speak to your employer and see if they can 'introduce' you as an employee to their own bank.Ethical moneysaver0

most banks do offer a "basic" account, though id suggest if you can prove your payments , such as showing some recent wage slips to the bank, they should look into it for you. If you can prove you are recieving a montly income to them Im sure they could sort something out for you0
