Receiving payments in Dollars & Euros

This may be of interest to more people than just me.
I am about to launch some eBooks on the Kindle platform on Amazon.com (and elsewhere).
Amazon.com pays in dollars, and its European parts in Euros. So I have to fill out a form to receive sales income in dollars and Euros either by cheque or EFT.
The bank charges and exchange rates from UK banks seem pretty steep. I saw that Citibank used to be a good option but now is about to charge £5 per month.
Any help or bank recommendations please?

You can avoid the £5 charge with Citibank by having the Citibank plus sterling account, as well as the Dollar and Euro accounts, and just set up 2 unimportant dd's and cycle the required £1800 through the Plus account.Debt free and staying that way! :beer:0

Thanks, but it seems a bit excessive to tie up that amount of money for a fiver.0

Yeah, right!
But then I don't want to pay the £5 either...
