Hi
I think that any business account will be hard to come by.
You can use a personal account such as Think Banking. You can pay direct debits and you get online banking. I think that the cost is £12.50 per month.

With careful separation of your business monies from your personal monies, there should be no reason why you could not operate your business through a private account - unless you have a trading name.

Keeping your records in order and using your personal account is fine (even if you have a trade name for your business). A little messy but not insoluable.
