BANKING
Opening a bank account is one of the biggest frustrations for newly arrived teachers. To overcome this ADR can facilitate the opening of an account on your arrival in the UK. Our UK representatives will provide you with the procedure and documentation on the day of your induction and introduction. It’s that SIMPLE!

We also advise taking recent statements of your Australian Bank account.

If you are interested in opening a UK account prior to your departure, HSBC Australia offers a service in conjunction with Thomas Cook travel agents. Minimum deposits and charges apply.

Credit Cards
Any credit card that bears the Visa, MasterCard or American Express 'badge' will be widely accepted in Britain. We recommend contacting your Australian bank, prior to departure, in order to establish the services they provide whilst you are overseas.
