    Setting Up A New Business

    Has anyone used this company before?

    http://www.companiesmadesimple.com/

    I basically need to set up a LTD company and do not know which package I need.

    Do I really need to go for their platinum service of £120 to able to open up a business bank account?

    Opening Company bank account is easy. Try Cater Allen.

      Company Formation

      joey122

      You can find Company Formation from £25.57 all done online, like the service we offer.

      You dont "need" any more than that to open a bank account with any bank.

      I hope that helps

        Hi,

        That seems quite expensive. I know someone who set up a limited company which was cheaper thats this, the accountants are called Danbro ltd.

            opening a bank account is really difficult. you have to go into the bank with your company's certificate of incorporation, and 2 forms of id for yourself and they fill in the forms for you.

            ... yeah I'd pay someone to do that

                I used ukplc.net. Paid £25 no muss, no fuss. Took less than a day to do.

                I can recommend Abbey (or whatever they are called now!) for free business banking , been with them for 4 years. I've never had a problem.
