I've been trying to get a company bank account for a couple of years now, but due to past problems on my credit file, it's almost impossible. Every bank I have applied through has checked my credit file as a director, and has refused to offer an account. A couple I already hold personal accounts with, and it makes no difference.
There is the possibility of using some of the companies that specifically advertise non-status business bank accounts as they seem to be able to bypass the usual checks. However, if you go down this route, avoid Credit4All (or variations on the name) like the plague.
For now, I use a separate personal account. My bank know about this and have no problem with it. In fact, it was suggested to me by their business manager as an interim solution.
