Let’s see what to say at a bank. Going in, ask, ‘I want to open an account, what’s needed?’ To withdraw, ‘I want to withdraw some money.’ To deposit, ‘put this into my account.’ If asked to fill a form, ‘what should I write here?’ At an ATM, never tell anyone your PIN. Wait patiently in the queue. Know this much and bank work is easy!
