Business Bank Account

Hi,

I've tried posting this on an existing thread but had no response, hence the new thread.

I need to open a business bank account as a limited company. The problem is that I've got a couple of personal defaults. I've already been declined by Halifax/Lloyds TSB and Barclays and I'm looking for the business equivalent to a basic bank account. I'm also not interested in any overdraft or credit facility, just looking for a working bank account.

If anyone can give me an idea as to which banks/bs might accept me I'd appreciate it.

Thanks.

    No specific help, just a suggestion to keep trying other banks.

    The only one I could suggest is someone like Allied Irish who I've only ever seen as just a business bank?

    If you have a good credit history, no history of bankcruptcy and CCJ's then look into Natwest, Santander and HSBC business banking.

  • as a limited comapny your credit doesnt really matter, unless they require a guarantor or something

    you should be able to open a full business bank account
