Business banking for those with poor credit

Anyone got any ideas how to open a simple business bank account if one has a Debt management plan in place? Tried the new Metro Bank and NatWest but they said no because of the DMP. I have a business account with NatWest as a ltd.co., but I'm closing that down now as the business is closed, but wish to open just a simple account for an established arts group that pays an annual membership fee.
Any ideas?

    The NatWest Foundation Account is the one usually mentioned on here because it's available for those with a poor credit rating. If your branch didn't mention this account then give them another try or perhaps ring the enquiry line.
