Non-UK Resident Bank account

[testdog]

Guys, anybody has a clue how I can open a UK bank account as non uk resident ? :(

Testdog - Before you purchased the account I clearly stated you WOULD DEFINATELY need a UK bank account to operate the account.

Your response was I already have one.

You MUST be a UK RESIDENT to have a UK bank account.

There are NO VBA's in the UK as their are in the USA.

Imakemoney, I was planning to open with Barclays but it turns out that their branch here is only for local accounts ! :(

I knew & know that I need a UK bank account.

UPDATE:

I figured it out ! Called my local bank and they have a presence in UK, they'll sort me something out.

I doubt if they will sort anything out. You can't have a UK bank account if you are not a resident.
