I opened a bank account at Barclay's in 1996 when I spend a few months in London. No problems at all. They didn't ask for a rental agreement (I wasn't paying rent) or a mortgage statement (didn't own property). Neither did I pay for utilities.
Be careful if you go the barclays route, there have been a few horror stories in recent years about employee's tacking on premium services to new accounts without your prior consent.
