I have had a nightmare trying to setup an account with Alliance & Leicester. It has now taken 7 weeks. They made me apply 3 times now! First internet, then phone, then paper-based application. All because my company secretary had lived in France for a year.
Now the muppets say they cant read the scans (which they made) of the certified documents I sent it, and want them sent in again. Even though I sent in the original bills in as well as the certified photocopies. Which means I have to go through the whole certification process again.
Was attracted by the high interest on their accounts, but I'm loosing faith in this banks staff basic competence.
Can someone recommend me a bank which is quick to set up? I cant get paid until I have a bank account set up and really need this done before Christmas. Ideally one which doesn't required certified documents, just photocopies, as this will speed things up.
Cheers,
EF
