    Need a new Ltd Bank Account

    Just waiting for the new Ltd number to come through, then I can get my insurance through QDOS. Then also need to get a new Ltd Bank.


    Any recommendations and does any have a referral code they want to give me for a bank as Mudskipper has provided me some others.
    What happens in General, stays in General.
    You know what they say about assumptions!

    If you can get a referral from some accountants, or go into London, I'm very happy with Metrobank.

    Ditched Santander after one last cock up, but InTouch referred them so I didn't need to go into that there London.

      Meh.. Someone here was complaining about Santander today. Hope they ain't going down hill. They seem OK for me at the moment and don't want to bugger about at the moment.

        Happy with Santander, and when I set up the account (albeit under Abbey) they could do it over the phone.

          I had issues with Santander when I opened the account (as Abbey), including being able to ring them and tell them what my new password for online banking should be with no other security because they lost the phone.

          If you're happy, then I wouldn't move - particularly since you're probably on the free banking for life deal that Abbey used to do. Metrobank were good at opening the account, I like their app, plus they do an automatic data feed into InTouch so I don't need to faff about with downloads and uploads. And the new app is due soon which looks to have some nice features.

                    Cater Allen are (or were) a popular choice for "free" banking; they're very good in terms of customer service, but very bad in terms of implementing FPS (takes 2-3 days for payments to execute).

                    All factors considered, I'd recommend HSBC (small monthly fee).
