Paid in Euros

clockworksimon

Dear MSE Forumers

I am a UK resident, i have been forever. Recently i have started working offshore in the mediterranean, and i get paid in Euros.

I would like to find a new account that:

- I can get my Euro Salary paid into without any charges
- I can withdraw my Euros for free, from a bank or from a visa debit card for example for day to day use.
- I can transfer fairly large sums of Euros into a sterling account back home.

What can anyone suggest?

I've had a look at Barclay's Euro accounts, but they don't have a card attached to them, so i can't really use the euros.

Many thanks in advance.

The citibank Euro Account is also a good one.
