my question revolves around bank accounts and renting a flat (if I am coming without a job)???
Any feedback from anyone who has gone through this would be great.
I have cash to open the account but it seems like the rules are very stringent......

Hi Bingo and welcome to the forum.
Up until two years ago, there used to be basic bank accounts and I remember my foreign students being able to open them. It might have changed since I left and as you say Banks have become very stringent recently.
