I often receive payments in EURO so would like a Euro Account.
Today I saw an advert for this bank but i've never heard of them before. Pricing looks very good but information is lacking on their website.
Has anyone experience of using this company?

No experience myself, but they look interesting.
They seem to be protected by the Dutch compensation scheme up to EUR100,000 so that's OK.
They'll only send money to Euro accounts, so you'd need to use someone like CurrencyFair or Transferwise if you want to convert to GBP.
After a lot of digging around their website I found their acceptance conditions - basically any EU resident. Since us in the UK can't do IDEAL or SOFORT payments we have to have a video interview.
There's more haphazard info on their FAQ site at https://together.bunq.com/ but you have to search around it (and some of it is in Dutch).0 -
Would an non EU resident but someone with Euro bank account (say because of owning property) be able to open one?0
