How we helped Jean-Pierre

• As he's highly mobile, Jean-Pierre finds it useful to have a globally accessible bank account. He doesn't have to open new accounts, or close existing ones, each time he moves
• He's paid in sterling and needs both a debit card and a credit card to access his money while abroad. Both are available with the Offshore Bank Account
• Whatever time zone he's working in, Jean-Pierre can manage his day-to-day finances (such as direct debits and standing orders) via the internet. He can also move money between his sterling and euro accounts online
• He also has 24 hour access to our call centre, so he can speak to a real person about his finances whenever he needs to
