If you had taken the time to read what I said before replying, you'd be aware I did not use this account to avoid charges. I would have much preferred to have a business account, unfortunately you're stuck with these type of accounts with a prepaid MasterCard when you have a poor credit history.
I had a poor credit history at the time of opening, do you understand that?
So I have used this account to better my credit history as that what it is designed for, so I can get a business account.
Strange when the very same company you've opened a personal account offer business accounts and without credit checks?
Cash Plus Business Account: LINK
You have used a personal account as a business account and this has been noticed, hence the investigation as per their T&Cs. Cash Plus will probably close the account down at the conclusion of the investigation for breaching the T&Cs of the personal account. Whether you'll be allowed to open a business account with them is at their discretion: from experience of working in banking I'd be surprised if they allowed this to happen.0 -
I really don't understand why you used a prepaid card as a business account?. Drip feeding payments into it and keeping a relatively large balance for a prepaid card is bound to draw attention to yourself.
There are plenty of suitable accounts you could have got with a bad credit rating and the poster above has put a link to one of them!0 -

However, as has been noted you are holding a personal account for business purposes. This puts you at something of a disadvantage when it comes to claiming the moral high ground.0 -
