Question: If Barclays is asking for the customer to provide evidence of a trading address for customers that are using RA, what address are they referring to? Answer:  This refers to their trading address and not their registered office address (which is our address since they are using RA). RA does not provide them with a trading address and must not be used as the Principal Place of Business address for VAT registration purposes. Hence, they will need to provide a POA for their trading address which is most likely their home address.
Question: Does Barclays currently offer Business Bank Account openings? Answer: Yes, Barclays will be opening branches to accept F2F appointments for multiple director/shareholder companies, also companies without any current affiliation to Barclays like a personal bank account or Barclaycard. This will happen staring from the 14th June 2021. Until then, if the customer already has a personal account they may be able to get round this as they would have already been through the identification process . Please ensure we continue to offer CashPlus to anyone querying about Barclays as an alternative.
