Is there anyway of opening an online trading account with a UK broker without needing to have a UK bank account? A few of the ones I've tried have this requirement which is a bit awkward for me. My own online broker (in Ireland) doesn't give access to all the shares in the FTSE or to any in the AIM. Are there any in the Channel islands or Isle of Man?

Ta, foitek.

little woman, I meant info on tax circumstances.. CGT for companies etc..
