Opening a Business Bank Account Seems Impossible

Evening guys.

We are trying to open a business bank account since the day we incorporated our business on Companies House, which comes to 2 years ago nearly.

Firstly, we got rejected with no reason given. We said it might be due to the overdraft we used at the time, so we said, let's clear that out and we'll try again in 3-4 months. Tried. Nothing.

Mettle, Anna Money, Revolut, Tide, HSBC, LLoyds, Starling and Monzo.

Nothing bad on the credit files.

They all say the same thing : We are truly sorry, but after careful consideration we decided not to proceed with opening an account at this time.

It's a bloody cleaning company. Domestic and Commercial. Nothing special.

Has anyone encountered anything like this? Could this be a filter out for foreign names?(We're not British yet but have Settled Status)
