Opening a bank account from the UK - fail story by defectus
I've read here about people opening their bank accounts from abroad using the HSBC overseas account opening service. Trying to get ahead of the game I used that service too - and failed. We relocated a week ago and I started the account opening ...

All right, so I put it on my to do list. I'm visiting my employers offices a week before I officially join them so I use that opportunity to ask about that number. Out of curiosity, is this number in any way related to the national insurance number? Read More
