Dear Granny,

I want to pay my rent by Direct Debit but haven't got a bank account, can you help?
 
 
Dear Anonymous,

The staff in our local offices have lots of information on Basic Bank Accounts, including an introductory letter that you can take along to the bank of your choice to help you open an account.

They will then help you to set up a Direct Debit to pay your rent...and best of all, if you make six consecutive payments in this way, you will receive a £10 High Street shopping voucher!
