I would like to open an account with a bank or building society (so that I can make some interest on my salary). Which building society would allow me to open an account quickly without a credit check?

Believe it or not, UK Banks do make some effort to reject individuals with poor credit records (or those currently Bankrupt).
So all UK Banks WILL check your Credit record before deciding to offer you an account - however you can insist on a 'Basic' account (no Credit Card, no Overdraft) and most banks will provide one (typically it will come with a Debit Card).
You may find it easier to go into a high street branch with your Passport, Birth Certificate and something that shows your current address (Driving License, Utility Bill etc), together with you latest wages slip.

I know NatWest are easy, 'cos we opened an account with them after being turned down by 3 other banks.

You write: "I won my non everlasting go away to proceed to be in uk ". for this reason i assume that at some time in the previous you travelled to the united kingdom. For that commute you needed some form of id rfile, like a passport. do not you have a passport out of your place united states of america? it may be effective in case you pronounced your nationality.
