Bank account which doesn't show my name when sending money

michaelmystery

I am looking for a bank account which doesn't show my name when sending money.

This is just for sending a gift, and not for anything dodgy.

I have looked into offshore corporation formation, which would show a company name, but this is over £1,000 to set up.

I was wondering if there was a cheaper, easier method.

I tried sending money with Natwest online banking, and it always shows my name no matter what I use as the "reference" field.

It feels as if setting up a company is a very elaborate way of doing something that is surely much more simple.

Thanks

Might be easier to just pay cash into the persons bank account, then you can put whatever name/reference you like.

The payment could run into the £1,000s though. Maybe about £2,000-£5,000, so I don't know if you can pay this much in cash without your name being sent.

You can pay in a cheque rather than cash

Do cheque books that I get from my bank not always have my name on them...?

Do I not have to sign cheques with my name?

You are trying to do exactly what the financial institutions and the government don’t want you to do. Paying in/taking out/moving money anonymously is a sure way to attract attention under MLR.

Last year you asked about applying for low-end, minimum wage, jobs:

What kind of job experience do I need for entry level retail..? Stuff like working minimum wage at Tesco, Sainsburys, ASDA, etc..?

What kind of stuff do they look for? What kind of previous job titles should I have..?

Admin..? Data entry..? Something else entirely..? I just don't know.

Those who have had jobs at places like this.. what kind of job experience does it take to get the job..?

I'm talking jobs a bit like this:

TESCO

LIDL

KFC

Anything you can find on a high street... Minimum wage style jobs... What do I need in my work history to get one of these?

Thanks

Last week you asked about obtaining a loan of £10,000 to buy a car for a friend:

I'm looking at getting a personal loan of around £10,000 over 5 years.

Let's say that I am actually buying a car for someone else, as a present.

Would loan companies allow this?

Today you're playing the roll of Magwitch and want to anonymously pay thousands of pounds in to someone's bank account.

Popcorn anyone? :rotfl:

If you really wanted to send someone a gift, surely you'd want them to know who the kind person was who'd sent it, i.e. you? Otherwise, how could they thank you for your gift.

Sorry, but it sounds like a clear attempt at fraud or money laundering to me.

I suppose all fraudsters have got to start somewhere. It would be so much easier if you could do an apprenticeship with a more established one wouldn't it - far less chance of making a schoolboy error and ending up inside.

Yes but the cheque itself is never seen by the recipient.
