My son(filipino) arrived in UK recently with an entry clearance visa..So he could work here am I right? But opening a bank account for him is a bit stressful as they are asking for 2 ID's which only he has his passport..he haven't got any utility bills since he is staying with us at the moment...
PLEASE HELP!!!
tnx
If you are really really struggling and need to get a bank account urgently the take a look here:-

Yes, I know it's expensive at £8 per month but it may be OK for a short-time solution when all else fails. At least you get a fully functioning debit card.
One he starts to get statements at the address he may use those to open a cheaper A/C or even downgrade the HSBC A/C
If you decide to go for it let us know some feedback, pro's and con's etc
Good luck and best wishes
