There are bank accounts in the UK which are suitable for homeless people.

It’s a very difficult problem. But a mix of using a homeless centres as their home address and also new services like ProxyAddress[1].

It’s an issue that regulators like the FCA are keenly aware of, and are pushing banks hard to find a solution to.

It’s very common for people to just fake utility bills for this purpose, the banks do not verify them.
