VBA for paypal uk?
 

got refused at RBS and Yorkshire Bank for a bank account,.

i've read about VBA's are these a good solution for people like me that dont have good credit history,.

there must be a way to open up a few bank accounts without doing credit rating checks. My credit rating is bad which is why i am being refused new bank accounts

Unfortunately, there aren't VBA here in the UK.

Are you applying for full current account's or basic account's?

NO VBAs as yet as stated.

Given your situation you should look at savers.:typing:

try secure trust?

Lucy, up & above what has already been said in regards to this issue you have, it might be worth exploring PREPAID VISA/MASTERCARD debit cards.

if you manage to open a basic /saver account with any bank , you can then upgrade it to a current account after a months. Most banks don't have any problem to open saver account for people with bad credit history. It will help if you tell them you want to put your wages in it .

If i was you also i would try and get that credit rating sorted out....being able to use current accounts does make life easier with stealth....

Although as stated there are some work-arounds for people with bad credit
