Guaranteed Business Bank Accounts

Hello,

This may well have been answered before on this site, but are the companies offering 'Guaranteed Business Bank Accounts' a scam. They guarantee your money bank if they are unsuccessful, but if they're a scam then that money's gone too !!!

I need to open a Business Account, but have bad credit - so I want to know if they're safe to use

Thanks

  • If it looks too good to be true.............you know the rest.
  • I used one of these guaranteed bank account companies to help open an account for me when i started my new business last year.

    I had bad credit from when i got divorced, they were very helpful and opened a business account for me within a couple of weeks.

    Hope this helps.

  • I contacted www.ltd-companies.co.uk and they fixed me up. Offer seemed too good to be true but they were brilliant! :T

    Looks dodgy to me....
    If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands

    Anyone from Matrix360 on board?

    Care to explain why you are advertising a Prepaid Mastercard fro £100+? The local newsagent does them for about a fiver.

    Oh, and their cars are twice as expensive as 1car1 or Apex, with a hefty non refundable "Arrangement fee"
  • Hello,
    This is my first post and i will give you my real experiences of dealing with the above named compnay- www-ltd-companies.co.uk but will await their responses...

    I applied for a guaranteed business account and unfortunately could not be opened so as per their promise I have requested a full refund of £169 - I am just awaiting on their responses and then I'll let you guys know
    Cheers
  • 5 months later, £220 has been lost to one of these companies that supposedly were able to open me a bank account and open a merchant account. Now trying to charge back via the bank.

    I've given up trying to open a business bank account at the moment - grrrr!
