Debit Card Finally!

My letter from the bank finally arrived! I went to go pick up my card today. Now I just need to get the visa office to move my money from their account into mine and everything will be all good.

Banking Information

In the orientation package, the faculty recommends that we open an account with the Postbank (which I think is a part of ING). I went down to the main branch to open my account. The line was super long - I guess there are tons of students wanting to open an account. Its a pretty good account too - virtually no fees attached.

To open the account, you need to bring your passport and certificate of enrollment from UM. It is a relatively easy process. Only you need to wait about 10 days before the account is actually open. They'll send you a letter with a place to go to pick up your debit card.

Banks

Just some research on local banks where I can open an account

  • Listing of all banks in the Netherlands available via Wikipedia
  • SNS Bank - The university uses this bank. The site is in Dutch.
