you can stick to the stealth code as close as you can but even then we still get hick ups and obstacles along the way... its not tailor made so you have to work with it, bend and tweak it up sometimes
same goes for bank accs... dont try and bite off more than you can chew, yes i agree it can be difficult to get accs sometimes, as even the most basic of acc will run a credit check on you regardless of what some folks say here...trust that quote my misses is an ex bank manageress...
but you follow help advice and guidance toward the right type of bank, right type of acc and you cant go wrong
works different for everyone but for me, co op cashminder is easy to open, simple call to the bank to request the account as you cant apply online, they send you application around 2 weeks later done and dusted
santander 123 acc not everyone loves an acc where there are monthly charges involved to open the acc but in my case i found these type of accs are happier to get you on board simple reason as i just mentioned..."they charge"
halifax easy cash acc... this is a lovely little acc which once accepted and open TAKE! the online saver option, it will offer you the option to open a sideline savers acc... you dont have to be a genius to work this one out... 2 accs in 1 different sort and ac details
these are all very basic accs and you should have no trouble getting one
so as not to go on and on theres 4 accs with 3 banks right there... keep those in good shape and you should be on the right road for others to happily start accepting you again
and in this day and age of switching... it wont be long before your back on track
