Best Business Bank Account?

Hi All,

My sister who has a small business that doesnt make a great deal of profit, just basically ticks over, told me today she had been met with £650.00 of bank charges last month!! This made her overdrawn and she will incur further charges this month. Can anybody advise of a business account that charges very little?

  • Thank you, you have confirmed what I thought, but I know there is some strange system of paying in cheques, can anyone who has an Abbey Business Account comment on this?

  • No strange system......... you just can't do over the counter payments... all done through the machine.

    I've got a reserve business A/C with them too....I put all spare cash in there

    What type of business does she have? If she's a high user of cheques and cash she may breach Abbey's limits.
