Banks are expensive, check the prices for various various operations before opening your accountoperations before opening your account, normally it’s only free to withdraw money from the cash points that belong to the same bank where you have your account.

There are several campaigns in the beginning of September, because there are many new students moving in, so remember to ask for freebies when you open your account. Normally you have to book an appointment at the bank to open your account.

It may take weeks to get your credit/debit card and chequebook, and it’s quite likely, that there will be problems; you just have to be patient and go to the bank to complain every time something comes up.
