Small Business Account Required for Ebay
Options

I want to turn my Ebay Hobby into a business, all I need is a Business Bank Account so I can keep my books as a seperate entity.
Can anyone reccomend the best business bank account to do this, I have been looking at HSBC, but was wondering what you guys thought.
Most payments are received by Pay Pal so as long as I have internet banking and a card, that should be all I need.

We have ours with Abbey, no charges whatsoever, all done online."There is a light that never goes out"0

I use Abbey and get free banking so particularly good for clearing cheques. I also use Barclays for my credit card merchant. A lot of business bank accounts are free or very cheap for electronic payment transfers so it could be worth shopping around to check out some of the others as well.
Abbey are ok but I do find them a bit more limiting if you wanted to go into a branch and see anyone as there's no business people in the branches and you have to send your cheques through the post BUT having said that it's free so that's always a bonusIf you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun:cool:
Don't mess with me sucker!!!

Not sure if you can put the business cheques into the cashpoint, not tried that one BUT you can definately draw money out from the cashpoint using your business card so no worries on that one.If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun:cool:

Yes, you can deposit both cash and cheques into the machines, at my branch they have a special machine inside the branch for these deposits."There is a light that never goes out"0
