James - I did pass the checks and did not send in any docs before opening the account.

£2000 in the first withdrawal is a lot of money. I am not surprised they want to do a harder check on your

You really need to build up to things a bit slower going forward

I know - a stupid thing to do in hindsight. That should have been £20 not £2000.

Not really a problem to be honest - I was talking to someone the other day who received a higher limit although not the £10k limit we mention and withdrew £3800 first withdrawal with no issues.

Getting down to it, at some point you will receive the 'questionnaire'... doesn't matter amounts and when you do it.

So does that mean they will ask for invoices after this step?

You have to do the screenshot process for most of the prepaid now, eccount being the main one for it before you even start trading.

Update from Uaccount customer support about the failing direct debits:

This seem to be related to general issue we've been having, affecting all Direct Debit set ups. So it's not something specifically to your account.

This issue has now been resolved, so if you try to set it up again, it should go through fine.

Apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Thank you

Hi everyone.

Just opened my u account. Thanks to this thread .
On the questionnaire, do you need to tell them they are for ebay sales or just personal ?

[JamesNorth101]

They are going to be able to see that the payments are coming from PayPal when you start getting them so I would tell them the truth, but just tell them its your personal eBay account not that it will be a fully fledged all guns blazing eBay account

James, what if they are asking about 3 separate payments into 3 different additional accounts (the extra accounts you can add with them)?

So they obviously know there are 3 different ebay accounts then?

[Bunneh]

well they will cause they can see the different paypal names you have.

[JamesNorth101]

You just need to be honest with them and tell them that you do run x number of eBay accounts, then explain to them you do it for easy of stock management. At least that is what I would say

[AMLG]

Ok thank you

do they carry out credit check? Also if I.D is required, what type off paperwork would they require?

WHAT IF I HAVE BEEN MADE BANKRUPT?
The U Account is designed for everybody. We don't do credit checks and don't judge people based on how much money they have.

If you've been made bankrupt, you're still welcome to apply for a U Account (as long as you're over 18 and living at a UK address).
Did this answer your question? If not Contact Us

Just an FYI.

Whilst they dont do a credit check, since they wont be offering you any credit related services, they will do an electronic check to establish your identity.

If that fails, they'll ask for the usual information to confirm who you are.

[JamesNorth101]

Yep, it's a soft credit check that they run

Same as when someone applies for say car insurance. It doesn't effect your score but it will be visible to you that they have run a search
