New Business Acct... Any Help appreciated

I am about to start of on my own and was hoping that for the first 6 months I could use my personal account until I got on my feet. I realise now after reading these threads that is the wrong thing to do. I have also received emails from First Direct and Nationwide (2 accts I hold) that I cannot use them to pay in cheques with a business name. So I'm looking to you more experienced guys n girls for some advice for my initial 6-12 months because I need to do the right thing. Thanks

  • Anyone of those will do - probably quicker to apply online than wait weeks for a business manager appointment with some of them.
