UK Bank Account VS Prepaid Card/Bank

[EbayAmazonBot]

Hi all,

Looking at creating many bank accounts, I understand that if I create quite a few bank accounts at the same time it can affect my credit rating negatively and some may get rejected.

I was looking into prepaid cards like CashPlus where I can open and use them, what are the pros & cons with using this against a normal bank account?

I understand these give normal account number & sortcodes etc

A lot of them have issues with mismatching names

You also have to pay, usually a monthly fee for those types of accounts.

UK high Street banks are quick and easy to setup. And mostly free.
