It could also be useful for small charities and societies. I have acted as honorary treasurer for a couple until recently but out of frustration with the banks have given up. I have a distinct impression that there are at least a number of banks that don't want this type of business nowadays. In fact one bank (that shall remain nameless) even froze one of our accounts and threatened to close it for some insane reason that was completely fake. My appeal fell on deaf ears but when I referred it to the Banking Ombudsman the account was immediately unfrozen and the threat of closure removed!

@andrewwelsh6638 I have lost track of the number of times I have seen enforcement regulations roll out only to find that they are toothless and remain ineffective.
