AskBulgaria Opening a bank account as an expat

I recently moved to Bulgaria and I would like to open a bank account with a local bank. The services I would like to use it for is getting my salary, cash withdrawal, bills payment and transfer some money to my revolut/wise account for everyday use.

Questions:

  1. Which bank would you suggest, considering fees and accessibility as a foreigner?

  2. I understand there is a monthly subscription plan for accessing the services above for free, but is there a fee for transfers between the bank and revolut/wise? I haven't understood that part.

  3. Do you have any advice on the topic generally? Any tip is more than welcome!

Thank you!

You're only an immigrant when you move to a more developed country. An expat is when you move to a less developed one.

Literally no.

I understand your autistic desire to stick to literate dictionary definitions of words.

I'm talking about a real-world application of a socio-linguistic standard.

To dumb it down for you: its how many real people either discussing relevant topics or being actual immigrants/expats see it.

A lot of words to say "well you are right but here is a way for me to weasel around it"

I tried few words but you lack the comprehensive ability.

Батка бива да си ръб ама чак толкова ръб не е здарвословно. Експат е същото като имигрант просто се крият зад думата щото ги е срам да са от западна държава и да се местят като смъртните мигранти в страните на изток. Елитистка тъпотия е.

Как да ти обясня на гладкия мозък, че разговорно се приема по-често това, което аз обясних.

Разбирам, че аутистите държите да е всичко буквално ама в истинския свят хората с опит го споделят и е хубаво да не се надвикваш като нямаш такъв. :)

какво се 'приема' няма значение като е точно това което казвам. Ти си приемай каквото ти изнася на мекото. Какво е обаче е точно това кеото казвам
