Opening a business current account
Opening a business current account is an important step for any business. To help you prepare, UK Finance has worked with providers of UK business banking accounts to agree a basic set of information that they will need from you.
What to expect once all documentation has been provided
On completion of the above the bank will undertake a review of the information provided including relevant security, identity and credit checks.
What if I remain unhappy with the decision or service?
If you are not happy with a decision a bank has made about your account or a transaction the best first course of action is to speak to your bank. Banks are customer-focused organisations and staff are on-hand to deal with any concerns or queries you may have.
What happens if the bank decides it needs to close my business account?
At times banks may take a decision to exit or cease a relationship. This decision will not be taken without full consideration from the bank and can be driven by a range of factors.
