Best bank account for International Trade

commadus

I am looking to set up a business selling niche small form factor PC from Korea. I have researched the market and the majority of sales will be from Business customers.

The points I am unclear one is the payment side.

Abbey National looks like the best business account for me but I will need to buy the devices in dollars so do I need a international money account? Also what rate will I get? Market rate or less?

I want to take orders via the phone as the transaction volumes will be high value small items ie £500 plus.

I want to keep costs as low as possible. Looking at just a nice website with just information on the products (no more than 10).

For people to buy they will need to telephone in (I assume people will trust a new retailer more if they know they are available on the end of a phone?)
