If you have a bad credit score, it is unlikely you will be able to open a bank account with a mainstream bank. You can open a basic bank account online with limited features. That’s why Suits Me offer accounts with all the features you need plus rewards, irrespective of your credit score.
Can you get a bank account with a CCJ?
If you have a CCJ you may be able to open a basic bank account with limited features through a mainstream bank. Suits Me open personal accounts for thousands of people with CCJ’s.
What bank will let you open an account with bad credit?
All banks are supposed to offer basic accounts to those with bad credit. These accounts can be very limited. Suits Me offer much more than a basic account with rewards as standard.
