Lloyds TSB account caters for Polish people in the UK

Wed 25th Apr 2007

Lloyds TSB has announced it will be launching a new current account catering specifically for Polish people living in the UK.

With a top banking priority for Polish people being the ability to send money back home, the group's silver account allows them to do this with ease.

Possessing a money transfer card, family members or friends will be able to use the card for cash withdrawals and purchases.

The Lloyds account also brings with it a Visa card and a European travel insurance package which had previously been unavailable to people recently arriving in the UK.

Caroline Brady, head of segments at Lloyds TSB, said: "The rapidly expanding Polish community is having a major impact on the UK current account market.

"In the past 12 months we have experienced a surge in the number of new accounts being opened, with over 100,000 new current accounts opened by Polish customers last year alone," she added.

Polish serving branches will also make it far easier to set up the competitive Lloyds TSB account.
