Quickest Bank Account

gerryjo1984

Are there any bank accounts that can give you an instant answer on whether you are accepted or not? I need a new bank account & need a s/c & acc details asap so my wages can be paid in this month. The quicker the better.

I was told straight away by Bank of Scotland that I got a easycash account,2 years ago.I got it for flights abroad but they are always offering to upgrade it.Halifax also do this account.

If you go into a branch of nearly any bank and go through the a/c opening procedure they should be able to give you an answer there and then provided you have all the right ID.

Barclays and LLoyds TSN can usually give you the account details immediately.

If you go into a branch of Metro Bank in London with the required ID you can walk out with a working debit card.

Natwest will open you an account pretty much on the spot if you got to a branch with the correct ID

Barclays (especially cash card account)

The bank may give you the account number etc there and then however bare in mind the account could
be subsequently closed afterwards (Natwest AVU springs to mind here).

HSBC, gave me the account with in 20 min of showing them correct ID.

and got the debit card the next day.

(no problems at all)
