The accounts are easy to administer, usually well in credit with few transactions.
Cater Allen works for me.

Problem is few business runs like ours, minimal transactions, good incoming cash flow.

You get what you pay for with free banking, they will get their money out of you one way or another.

Just wait until you try and get a VAT registration to see what frustration is all about

Unless you are stuck for cash - usually you can double up on the next invoice at the beginning of a contract

Hi,
No didn't mention anything about cashback! But free banking for 12 months. To be honest after dealing with other banks and endless promise of callbacks etc, I was just glad to have a sort code and account number.

VAT all sorted, that was the easy bit. Even though the "helpline" said 4 weeks, within a week my registration letter arrived with my precious number on.

Barclays Bank Sheffield City Centre

After some very bad experiences with other high street banks, I've just had a really good experience opening up my first business account with Barclays Bank. Big thank you to Alex, a Business Account Manager at Sheffield city centre branch.

Walked in on the Thursday and asked to speak to someone. Alex was available, within 15 mins he credit checked my new company and I was approved. Made an appointment the next day, as he needed copies of proof of my identification and my wife (company secretary) needed to come in.

I explained to him I urgently needed the sort code / account to produce my first invoice, he called me up on the Tuesday to let me know the details.

Great service

Stuart
