Just an update. They wouldn’t budge on the need for a RIB and so no dice. I even went to my bank (I am an HSBC customer overseas) to open an account and they refused! So that was a waste of time.

Eventually opted for Free. It may be ultimately prove to be sub-optimal but it sure beats nothing.

Thanks for the advice.
