Opening an account
A: Good morning, can I help you
B: Yes, I'd like to open a deposit account.
A: Certainly Sir. Would you like a Silver or a
Gold account?
B: What's the difference?
A: You can open a Silver account with just £5.
The account comes with a cash card so you can
withdraw your money at any time. The Silver
account currently pays 5% interest. For the Gold
account you need a minimum of £500, and you have
to give 14 days notice to withdraw money. The
interest rate is 6.5%.
B: I'll go for the Silver account.
A: How much would you like to deposit
B: £500
A: And we'll need two proofs of ID; telephone
bill, driving licence, credit card statement
etc.
B: I'm sorry, I
don't have any of those on
me. I'll come back tomorrow.
