Very good for international students

4
Very good for international students. However, there might be a little better communication within the bank. I applied for my account online, and when I came to finish it up in the store, I had to do it all again, and provide data I already did online. But overall, it feel very reliable, and app is very helpful. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
