    They are both UK regulated and members of the FSCS so as safe as any of the known brands. However, their current accounts may be not suitable for everyone

    gtbankuk - min opening balance £5,000, £100 annual fee. Plus perhaps other charges

    ghanabank : looks less costly than gtbank at first glance but also has some charges that could add up

    I want to book some flights with Opodo and there's a £53 discount for paying with a MasterCard debit. This reduces the flights from £400 to £346 so it's worth exploring.

    Which is the easiest and quickest one to apply for? I can't believe I don't have one already but I've checked them all and they're either Visa debit or credit cards.

    Thanks.

    Clydesdale Bank or Yorkshire Bank will probably be the most straightforward Debit Mastercard to get, unless you live in London in which case Metro Bank is likely the best option as you can generally get the card on the spot.

    From my experience neither of them are particularly speedy, which was one of the OP's requirements.

    Same experience here (as I have said in post #3).
