Is that fair that we should start paying for a standard bank account?

Yes but you have to open proper accounts with banks in Singapore, Singapore Exchange (SGX) and Central Depository (CDP).

It is a good thing for you to see what your getting, but I agree it is a ploy to strong arm you!\n\nI would find the place you like and name drop about the other gyms. Since it is done on commision, I would wait until the end of the month and at the end of the day so you have an advantage because they need to make quotas.Same for buying a car!\n\nYou should ask people what they are paying as they enter and leave the gym to get a feel for the cost. Good luck!

If not, bring your account to Barclays. Our equivalent account is called a Cash Card Account. On which you CAN have Direct Debits set up, but not standing orders. Pop into your local branch, its very quick and simple to set up!

No.  It actually shows that you be a bit more wise as to how you spend money because you have different accounts for sifferent purposes.  You could have 1 for everyday expenses, while another is actually your money market which you use for emergencies, and home improvements.

You can go to any bank.  If you go to a bank where you have an account, they'll probably do it at no charge.

i hope not. it would screw small busness who get charged a standerd rate for card charges. pluss how would you pay taxi drivers? or the plumber who tightens a nut and call it £3 for the petrol.

No.\nThe US is particularly bad at managing transactions in anything other than dollars. The recipient at best will have to pay a large fee, if their bank is able to cope with it at all.\n\nGet a bank draft made out for them in dollars. Any high street bank in the UK will do this easily.

I agree with the "idiot" answer.  People figure that banks have plenty of money, so what's a few bucks?  They should be glad that they are only getting charged 20 pounds rather than being turned over to the authorities for fraud.

ask them to pay for it

Yes it is.  All countries in the EU have similar identification requirements, although the forms you have to sign will be slightly different.  They cannot refuse you a bank account just because you're from the UK.

yes you should pay it, and if you cant afford to pay the full balance then you should pay the majority (You should pay over the minimum amount due).
