Re: Grrr... trying to open UK bank accounts for kids with internet access
Yes it isnt the law that you cant open accounts in the UK
I wish people would stop posting stuff they know nothing about
jeez talk about barrack room lawyers
I just opened an account with national savings (easy access) - all done by mail from the US
Its uk mainland and bank of england - piece of cake
Also one with the hsbc jersey
my HBOS account in leeds is still open and they send statements to the US and dont deduct UK tax
So you people who say it cant be done - knickers !

Re: Grrr... trying to open UK bank accounts for kids with internet access
It's lovely to have my house money with the Bank of England - I don't even trust them right now.
Royal Bank of Scotland just announced the largest corporate loss in the history of the UK and bank shares like Barclays even are tanking.
I changed a ton of GBP into USD at 2.04 when I came here . If I went back it would be worth a fortune in GBP. But it rains such much I wouldn't be able to see the golden mosque in Bradford clearly - so perhaps not.
