Where should I setup a bank account in Aberdeen?

Answer this Question

We asked expats in Aberdeen what banks they use and there advice about banking. They advised...

"Before retiring in Aberdeen, expats should know that the city is known for its rich history, stunning architecture, and vibrant cultural scene. It's important to understand that the cost of living can be higher than in other parts of Scotland, particularly for housing. Expats should also be aware that the weather in Aberdeen can be quite cold and rainy, especially in the winter months. Aberdeen is a city with a strong economy, largely driven by the oil industry, and offers a high standard of living. It's also worth noting that the healthcare system in Scotland is excellent, with many services provided free of charge through the National Health Service. However, private healthcare is also available for those who prefer it. Expats should also be aware that Scotland has its own legal system, separate from the rest of the UK, so it's important to familiarize oneself with the local laws and regulations. English is the main language spoken, but the local dialect, Doric, can sometimes be difficult to understand. Aberdeen is well-connected to other parts of Scotland and the UK by train and road, and the city's international airport offers flights to many destinations. The city is also known for its beautiful parks and gardens, and its proximity to the stunning Scottish Highlands. Finally, expats retiring in Aberdeen should know that the city has a strong sense of community and offers plenty of opportunities for socializing, volunteering, and joining local clubs and organizations," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Aberdeen, Scotland.
