Nat West turned me down!

for their basic step account, i am confused by this, they say the usual things, get my credit report, would i have stood a better chance of opening it, if i had been a bankrupt? Im looking to open another basic bank account, but don't know where and who will accept me now!


Whoops ignore this, letter was for credit card, not step account!!

I was gonna say, it's a poor state of affairs if NatWest reject you for a basic bank account.

I have known a few people and read several post here on MSE regarding NatWest refusing applicants so, they must do some sort of credit checking but, I would think you can still have a pretty poor credit rating to pass

hi,i could not get any basic account but alliance and leicester gave me a premier direct current account,i applied on line and got a visa card and cheque book.
i know of lots off other people on here who had the same ending.

If you have had bankruptcy in the past NatWest won;t touch you in any shape size or form, i'm afraid. Automatic decline decision.
