Hi Smokey!
The easiest way to get a merchant account is througj Worldpay, but I dont know how indepth they go with regards directors histories.
Once you have been running that for a year you and you can show merchant account trading history you may find it easier to get a merchant account.

Also consider going to other banks, saying if I move my account will you also give us a merchant account.

No, Worldpay is all online so you'll need to take payments through your website or a web interface.
