Bank account for 17 year old

Abbafan1972

Hi there.

My daughter should be starting her first job soon and needs a bank account in order to have her wages paid in.  Can anyone recommend one please? Preferably where I don't have to go into a branch, simply because I cannot get to a branch when they are open. 

Thank you in advance.

Starling now provide bank accounts for 16 and 17 year olds.  So do Monzo.  Starling Bank offers bank account to teenagers – how does it work? – Which? News 
(That's an old link but probably worth exploring anyway).

She will very likely need to do this herself. They will want her signatures on forms and all part of life learning skills

Why are you thinking that you need to go to the branch for your daughter's account?

Nothing was said about accompanying the 17 year old.
