Do you want to relocate to work as a Pharmacist?
Or you already have another job?

Or you want to just gather money, and apply for ‘Relocation’ visa?

Are you a Pharmacist?

Old generation banks are very hopeless when they see movements in your account that is unusual. If I want to do such transactions, they go through my challenger banks.

Erico bros, you have to move with time, you cant afford to be stuck in the dark age. In the last couple of years, we have changed how we shop(Amazon etc), how we listen to music(spotify, souncloud), how we watch movies(Netflix), how we commute (uber, tesla), how we live (smarthomes IoTs). The only thing left is banking.

This is what informed these highly available and resilient new banks. They challenged the regulators that they can build a bank from scratch that can compete with old banks and provide service. And, this is what they have done. Most of the features that make these banks different are being copied by the old banks as we speak and that tells you they are doing something right.

Let me burst your bubble, the hsbc, halifax natwest etc are now using machines in their banking halls. They are even closing some branches down. The ones they havent closed, just try and walk-in to see if they would not tell you to go and make your request online. So, what is the point of your brick and mortar?

Anne Boden, the ceo even said they built the bank in such a way that they can even run it from starbucks

i am planning to work for them

Aphrodite007:


Leemao! Let me keep quiet and be walking since my 5 years financial history is nothing and I’m now JJC.

Someone is telling you about bank that makes life easy; bank that’s close to their customers, bank that’s usi nig technologies you bridge the gap.. but you’re talking about financial history and comparing those archaic banks that don’t know anything about empathy, relationship building and loyalty to challenger banks. LoL

All Barclays had to do was place a call to understand what happened. Why freeze the bank and make the students acceptance get withdrawn. And that’s what you call a bank? Shior!

You don’t know good service even if it hits you.

The problem with the story is that its third hand gist ..... with third hand gist you never really know what exactly happened.

Freezing and then withdrawing funds long after payment and issuing of visa and CAS that really odd. Freezing for future or not letting a payment go yes that one I can understand ...

However I never worked in a bank so I learn new things everyday. So this really new to hear and then Barclays no try at all if this what happened.
