    I was opting for an Executor account, because I am currently on UC and didn't want them to think that the money was mine as it would be more than enough to close my claim.
    You can't be the first person to be in this situation.  Personally, I would open a second current account with Barclays then use it for ALL income and outgoings for the estate.  As long as everything is documented (whether physically or digitally) you will have proof of the source of the funds - not yours!
