My daughter will be starting a 6 month contract with TUI in May in Greece
We have been looking for a bank account suitable for her, she is paid in Euros monthly
We asked HSBC but she does not earn enough to open their overseas account
Can anyone advise?

When I worked for TC as a holiday rep I used Nationwide, I did three years and was able to access all my wages and was easy for my parents to pay money in for me via their local branch.

Accounts with a personal IBAN to receive a salary in euros are available with Fineco Bank UK. TransferWise 'Borderless' and Revolut. They all provide excellent rates for conversion to pounds, Revolut gives the perfect interbank rate (weekdays) without fee for up to £5k/month, 0.5% thereafter.Evolution, not revolution0
