Hi heard alot about you I know your busy but after some advice.

Partner currently banking through metro with only a current account he’s self employed /sole trader turn over 50k a year has no ccj’s or bankruptcy went into branch yesterday with all documents to open business account but was unable to because needed a hard credit check and as he doesnt have a good score.

They did not do this he has since opened a business current account online with tide and deposited a few hundred pounds so do you know what the time frame and criteria is in order to get the bbl with tide as we are really struggling financially and any advice would be gratefully received thank you keep up the good work

Ok looks like currently you are stuck with Tide, just a long waiting game and no way of speeding it up sadly
