Santander I think are cheaper but the facilities are not as good and having worked there (3 years ago) it used to be that the business banking people you spoke to were only there to open accounts - any servicing was farmed off to the phone and used to cause no end of problems with clients.
Useful info buddy - thanks. I'm going with HSBC business banking as it's £5.50 a month after 18months free banking and most I've spoken to have enjoyed the services from HSBC. Not to play down TSB and they were right up there in my options.

Thanks.
