What if I run out of bank accounts??
 

Hi, what do you do when setting up stealth accounts and you run out of bank accounts to verify them with? I am in the UK, can you use savings account or is there a 'virtual' option for the bank account?

Run out of bank accounts? Open another one or three. Find a bank where the monthly fees for checking aren't horrible and open them there. Some banks let you have multiple checking accounts, some don't. shop around. I was able to change an acct number by telling my bank I was concerned about fraud. They closed it and transferred the balance into a new acct, sent me new checks and dep slips for free.

You can get several pre paid bank accounts in the UK with Secure Trust Bank, they work with paypal. £12.50 / month.

is that there own bank account or is it with natwest or something similar ?

A private bank with Arbuthnot Banking Group plc

You can also buy VBAs.

It will be hard finding one for the UK though.

I just had the same thought, lots of prepaid bank accounts available though, just costs a bit more.
