Where should I setup a bank account in Weymouth?

Answer this Question

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

"Expats considering retiring in Weymouth, should be aware of several factors before making the move. Firstly, they should research the cost of living, which includes housing, utilities, groceries, and transportation, as it may be higher than in their home country. They should also familiarize themselves with the local healthcare system, including access to general practitioners, specialists, and hospitals, as well as the process for obtaining health insurance. It is essential for expats to understand the UK's tax system, as they may be subject to taxes on their worldwide income, depending on their residency status. They should also be aware of any tax treaties between the UK and their home country to avoid double taxation. Expats should familiarize themselves with the local culture, customs, and etiquette in Weymouth, as well as the regional accent and dialect, which may differ from standard British English. They should also be prepared for the local weather, which can be unpredictable and often includes rain and cool temperatures. Retirees should research the various transportation options available in Weymouth, including public transportation, taxis, and driving. If they plan to drive, they should be aware of the UK's driving laws and regulations, as well as the process for obtaining a UK driver's license. Finally, expats should explore the various leisure activities and social opportunities available in Weymouth, such as joining local clubs, participating in community events, and visiting nearby attractions. This will help them integrate into the community and make the most of their retirement in this coastal town," said a member in Weymouth, England.
