I set up the account to use whilst travelling. It's great because you can chose whether to pay in sterling or the local currency with no 'loaded' exchange rates. It worked like a dream. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Quick and easy

It is so fast to set up! I didn't have to wait for an appointment at the bank or spend ages at the bank watching useless videos and listening to info I didn't need. It took less than 5 minutes to open my account on my mobile and that was that. All important documents were emailed so no wasted paper Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

So far is a good experience.
