Things must be really tight in the UK if you are looking to save £20 a year on a second home? Have costs gone up that much??
No matter how hard the past, you can always begin again.

You can pay most utility bills online via website or PaypointCyprus.

Close your account and pay by https://paypointcyprus.com/tr/pay using your account reference numbers. I pay by credit cards.

Maybe not relevant to swallows, but I use my Iktisat bank account to pay subscription fees for Turkish Netflix and Spotify. Even with the bank fees I save over £100 a year on the UK price for the same services.

I have a friend who has moved to TEB because she says they pay the highest interest on her savings account and I am thinking of moving Dollars from Garanti to TEB for same reason. Will have to check on their interest rates again though. . Not too happy with Dollars any longer, ? switch to Euro maybe. ? Sorry, just realise I've gone off subject.

Not good customer service with TEB. Never answer emails so won’t let you know fee has increased, Don’t have enough money when you order it.

I agree with Poppy++1
I found them very hard to deal with and left them. Even closing the account was difficult!!

C'pass
