Starting in Business? Choose Free Banking
Clear Books, my accounting software company, has up until now banked with Barclays. I signed up out of convenience as our partner Fubra had an account manager which sped up the setup process. For a long time the account was inactive as we were in a development phase and not processing any transactions.
For a while now the account has been active and as a result we accrued bank charges covering the previous quarter including all sorts of items:
- BDC ATM CASH
- BDC MERCH VCH
- DEBIT ENTRIES
- AUTOMATED CR
- STMNTS CEN POST
This was very annoying!
Unfortunately, Barclays do not offer a free banking service so I am in the process of switching to Abbey (or Santander as it is now known) which does.
