ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND银行 以前给MASTRO DEBIT CARD还不错,现在只能给SOLO卡。服务越来越差。没有最低额度。我有朋友开卡过了2个月才收到卡。申请信用卡也不给。有的话也说LIMIT好象因为是学生,也不给升。网上银行感觉跟NATWEST一样,毕竟是一家。RBS目前在迅速发展中。最近经济不好对RBS打击很大,很多人担心它会破产关门,目前还算挺过来了。就是觉得它的BANK STATEMENT挺小。(NATWEST也是小的)。在PRICEINT CENTRE和OXFORD RD都有分行。
You can try. But normally HSBC only accept applications when you have your account for 6 months at least. I dont know what the situation is this September as each year the policy may vary.作者: charlie 时间: 2007-8-7 09:34
Some misapprehensions here about Barclays, just go and open the Barclays Bank A/C (NOT the Student Bank A/C), you will be charged NOTHING for your a/c maintenances from the bank, there's no surcharge for your account balance belows £2K. Besides I personally don't believe Barclays provides the most terrible services among those banking companies in UK market, according to my own experiences, HSBC is actually becoming the worst British Bank for its bloody offensive customer services. (NatWest and its parent company - RBS are actually making improvements...although they are still ways behind the Llyods-TSB, the one owns brilliant reputations among the international students.)
However the standard of providing services in your local bank, including opening a bank a/c, is greatly depends on the city or town which you currently living. If any difficulities occur for dealing with your bank a/c in your local bank, just change to another place, try to avoid wastering your time on totally useless communications. -_-
P.S: All personal ideas, no offence at all, your understandings are greatly appreciated! ^_^作者: sam 时间: 2008-9-11 14:18
