Life / Opening a savings accounts in a Polish bank [27]

I would advice not to start an account with Bank Pekao. You would hardly find any one who speaks English there or over the phone.

Intermit banking facility is limited.

I filled all the forms in the branch in last week of April and the documents haven’t arrived yet. When i asked, the answer was 'I dont know...how to find it'

I still have not clue whether they have managed to open an account for me or not!

I heard MBank(Millinium) is good.

I've started an account with Citibank. They have given me an account in PLN and one in GBP. They don’t charge for most transactions (including international) via online.

Hi Polanglik

Thank you for the quick response

i managed to find out the big shopping centre. Actually there was a mini shop just nearby where i stay and got a map from a tourist info: centre.

I do have a polish phrase book gifted by my previous work mates from London. I wish i meet someone here to show me around.

Profession wise i am an IT Functional consultant working for Philip Morris. I think i would be here for long. Thanks again
