DaveLister Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Spent part of yesterday opening a new bank account online. No problem until it came to photographing the id. New passport has something wrong with it. It doesn't work in e-gates and, on this occasion, was rejected as the software insisted it was a photocopy not the original. Thought I was going to have to admit defeat until I noticed that included in the list of acceptable ID's was a French residency card. Fished that out and now everything's good to go. So thank you Brexit, if it wasn't for you I wouldn't have had to apply for a card that is more use to me than my British passport.🤣 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
menthe Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 DL, if you don't mind saying, which bank is it? Wouldn't mind a new bank account. Of course, if you'd rather not say, I won't hold it against you!😘 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveLister Posted February 12 Author Share Posted February 12 Not at all, it was a Wise account. I want to try out their debit card. Just realised that my title should have read 'At last a Brexit bonus'. Can't figure out a way to correct it so sorry folks for the typo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one of their cards which lets me have an account in Euros, Sterling or Dollars. It also has the very useful function that you can create a virtual card, use it for a transaction, then immediately freeze or delete it. It's useful with any site that you are not 100% sure of.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
