I don't know what the problem is, but I wouldn't buy a new phone based on a personal theory, I'd try to understand the problem first, because if the problem isn't the handset then you could waste a lot of money that way. In fact I doubt your theory is correct, because if you failed to install WhatsApp on the phone then you never connected to them from that device and so they should have no record of any connection between the device ID and your phone number (current or previous).
So what exactly does this "banned" message say?
When you say you bought a SIM on return to the UK, did this come with a new phone number or did you port over an old one? It's usually numbers which get banned from WhatsApp rather than devices. Phone numbers are owned by the service providers and are a finite resource, so old numbers do get re-used. The provider should wait some period of time before re-issuing a number from a cancelled contract (can't remember how long, will be several months or maybe a year), but I wonder whether you got unlucky and got re-issued a number that had been banned due to a previous owner breaking the rules? It's just a speculation, but it's not impossible. If that's the case you will need to get through to a human being at WhatsApp to get it resolved. But if by any chance it is something like that then changing phones wouldn't help as long as you had the same phone number. This is why I think what you really need to do is get through to someone at WhatsApp and find out why it keeps being banned: once you know what the problem is you (or, hopefully, WhatsApp) will be able to work out how to fix it.
