Bank account details are required for setting up your home internet, mobile-phone contract, and day to day spending. A bank account is an essential part of living in the United Kingdom. It is a fairly easy process depending on the bank you chose.
Popular banks in the UK are
- HSBC
- NATWEST
- BARCLAYS
To open a bank account in the UK you need-
- Documents to prove your identity and address.
- A valid photo identification, such as passport, driving license, or biometric residence permit.
- Application form. Once you have the required documents fill-out the application form for the bank of your choice.
- Book an appointment. You need to visit the closest branch to show your original documents and pay the initial deposit. Deposit amounts may vary depending on bank policies.
- Card and pin. After you pay the deposit it may take a few days for the bank card to reach your home address. The bank will also provide you with a pin code.
