Hi guys, I know there is already a lot of posts about similar questions, but nothing that'd actually help me to decide/ learn about my actual options.
I'm in search of a solid bank which I can use as my primary - So preferably not "Revolut" style.
I've heard of Openbank, but their first requirement is Spanish residency, and ING but I only knew the NL branch - and my colleague from the UK had a lot of issues opening an account there even before Brexit.
What I'd expect:
- Account in €
- Low fees for standard banking operations
- Instant transfers in €
- App that is not complete trash (e.g. Unicredit)
- No absurdities like Sparkasse charging an absurd fee of 3% on non€ transactions (at least for EU currencies)
I know some banks like tax numbers - so I have mine in Croatia, Germany, Italy, Netherlands and Slovakia. I'm asking because I travel EU on weekly basis and in my country of residence we have 3 big banks that are milking clients on every occasion and the rest that is seriously doing EUR bank transfers in 3 days without any shame, with Online banking that is like we're in 2002...
Any suggestion highly appreciated.
