Business Account

Hi

I have been discharged now for almost 2 years. Question is, does anybody know of any 'friendly' banks that will allow me to open a business account with them?

Thanks guys

    Barclays and natwest. I have opened sole traders with both and just upgraded my barclays to LTd co. You will more than likely have to have a face to face but should be ok.

    On the HMRC website if you are a sole trader you do not need to have a business account you can use an ordinary account.
    So you could always open a cashminder account with the COOP and use that. If you have an account with them already you could open a second. Many on here seem to have two accounts and if I recall some have three or four. .
