Default Getting a bank account in the UK

How do you get a bank account in the UK? What will I need to open an account? Do you have to be a citizen in the UK to get a bank account?

Will they pay you the full amount if you have it deposited into a bank in the UK? If so, you could just transfer the money out of the UK after.

Will who the you the full amount?
You can open a bank account in the UK if you live here, but something tells me that you don't. You should contact a bank if you want to know what you need to open the account.
