    Just do it!. All you have to do is apply online wait for some letters and sign one and send it back. Yes it may take a few weeks but it takes little effort and once it's opened you put your money in and leave it!. All very hassle free.

    Not if you're a self obsessed drama queen.

    Oh I would love a Metro Bank account.

    No local branch? Assuming that travelling is not a problem, gather up all your ID documents and treat yourself to an away day/weekend?

    It seems that Metro Bank do it all instantly - which should meet your requirements!

    Well you have recently been referring to 1968 banking, the memory does go with age.
