How can I get help with the card?+
Support runs on phone and email. The bank also lists branches and ATMs in its home market, so a reader who would rather speak to someone in person can go to a counter instead of picking up the phone. Card queries of that kind are handled locally.
How many currencies can I hold on the account?+
The account covers 1 currency. That suits everyday spending from a single balance, and it means there is no second currency to convert against when travelling. Readers who hold several currencies would look at a multi-currency account instead.
