Instant useable bank accounts
 

As another PayPal account reached its 180 days I looked for another alternative....

I have a NatWest online account and simply opened an e-saver account whilst logged in. It took 2 mins and instantly gave me the sort number and acc number to withdraw my PayPal funds.

On checking my credit report there was no record, so I tried it again and 'bingo' another fresh sort and ACC number. There is no limit to how many times this can be done apparently and no effect on your credit report. Whether NatWest will ask questions I have yet to find out.....

If you do not bank with NatWest this can be done from a normal current account with online banking OR a Step Account, which is their beginner's account and has to be provided. You can apply for the account online.

Woohoo!!!

I have an Advantage Gold Account with Natwest and also two other other accounts, yep whenever I want a new account I just phone up and get a new a/c number straight away.

was interested in opening account with them but usa residents can not apply

You will not be able to withdraw to those saver accounts! They get removed from paypal few days after added.
