advise needed re banks

[miss.piggy]

Hello guys,

I would like to ask where i may be able to open my own bank account here in England. I arrived 3 weeks ago. Me and my hubby went to 2 banks already and they need at least 2 utility bills that reflects my name but of course we dont have that. What I have is my passport/visa. Do you know a bank that will allow me to open my own account with only a passport/visa as my identification? thank you and god bless you all.

Hi,

You may check HSBC. They have a 'passport account' for those new in the UK or just about to come and live in the UK.

In that case,I think I`ll give that one a miss. Thanks anyway

Huh? Sorry Fred, but the message is for Pinoyni who just arrived 3 weeks ago so I believe they still qualify for that particular account.
