    Thanks for everyone’s replies .... totally appreciate you even replying as I could off bin branded what I was a drug importer ......

    im finding it hard to adjust back to normal life , and hurdles like this I will have to overcome just I feel it’s unfair that a system can keep me unable to have a job as I carnt get paid now ..... 

    i will look into everything everyone said above and hopefully sumbit a SARS I will learn how to do that ... 


    I’m worried I have a checque for 25,000 that was my later grandparents and is to be divided for the kids but I have to cash so I dunno how to cash that ... 

    thanks again everyone 

    OP's family has had other, financially challenging dealings with law enforcement recently.

    Due to your circumstances - if you're facing a brick wall with all traditional accounts - definitely try the likes of Monzo - if unsuccessful - then something like this might be your next port of call:

    Can I just clear up I was done for importation off drugs and upon that you people get paid , from the top to the bottom so when money passes hands it’s money laundering never have a I took a penny from anyone .. 

    monzo recently shut my account and so did sterling ....

    Prepaid cards take work payments ? As this doesn’t involve anything to do with fraud I was unsure how the banks can keep doing this 

    I’ll have to look into everyone’s suggestions thank you

    Anything that provides an account with sort code and account number can be used to receive pay. Cashplus is one, usually they charge a monthly fee but sometimes there's a promo for a fee-free account through Money supermarket etc, have a look around.

    I for one have no problem accepting your claim of honesty despite being involved with drug importation.

    Yep - these stories are just that - stories. Trolls are usually too stupid to cover their tracks from previous efforts.

    Drug importing is a default money laundering no matter if you handled the money or not.
    ML is taking dirty money & making it clean.
    If you did not take a penny from anyone, just how did you live for the time you were doing it?
    TBH. You & your family do not have any chance of getting a bank account.
