Processing Merchant Account

How can i take payments while i wait for my merchant account?

To cut a long story short, any ideas on how i can process payments over the internet while i wait for my merchant account?

Would customers be put off by bank transfer or check?

Note: I ship goods. Not going to use paypal and UK based

I would reconsider the Paypal option. There are plenty of businesses who ship goods in the US that accept Paypal. It is fast and secure and the fees are not unreasonable.

Do you Have more Than one eBay Merchant Account?
