HSBC is often recommened for anyone overseas wanting to open UK bank accounts, probably be extra fees to pay for non UK residents.

HSBC can ask for an amount of over £5000 and for some accounts $250,000.

It aint that rosy to consider if not a resident.

Big lot of misadvice with that bank, sadly.

Halifax may be OK for you.

Not sure what you may need for ID.

Do you already have any UK accounts?

my friend will help me, he lives in UK. our plan is that he opens an account in one of the banks, and gives me the logins an other details. then i would like to be able to open more accounts as im going to expand my business, and create more Amazon Ghost accounts.

If he opens a current account at Halifax in his details then yes once you have the internet banking details you can create savings accounts online

Is possible get a UK Bank Account like USA VBA? Its only for UK PayPal verification.

No.

No such thing as a VBA in the UK
