After this pandemic my main way of getting income is gone! I used to be a dancer for years. Aside I had SD and done a bit of Escorting. But I was getting all in cash and was deposit on my bank account.
These days I have to reinvent myself and in the past I have been asked to travel with clients that I turned down because I didn’t want to give my personal details.
I use Amazon and other gift vouchers, as cashapp gave my details away once I am seriously thinking to open a business account on Revolut (have a personal one), but I don’t know how would best to open the account?
I have been paying taxes as performer.. would that be ok to chose as category? I am transitioning anyway and in the future (hopefully no too future) I am trying to move into travelling companion or just escorting.
What did you chose as category? I know many ladies use consultant.
I used to work as therapist for real (few years ago), so I could maybe open a business account with that category and further down the line, when things possibly get’s more stable inform my accountant.

OP go to virgin money and open a business account with Yorkshire (they’re partnered I think or something). Lloyd’s gave me so much trouble despite having a personal account for years and paying tax

Virgin don’t ask me anything. Answered a few questions and bam business account, my accountant suggested them to me. I use marketing consultant

I submitted one yesterday, my accountant helped with some infos, and I put therapy consultant lol, hope will be ok.. it’s currently in review. They also asked for a social media adress where I sell my products and I gave FB that is my personal (basic) one. Hope will go well 🙏🏻🤞🏻

I open it as freelancer, will I’ll be able to have another name on the statements in uk? So I keep my personal details anonymous? I am so dummy on this things!
