Anyone using Cater Allen for personal use? (not private banking)

[RedMade]

I'm really interested in the USD account they're offering here:

US Dollar Bank Account - Cater Allen

$2500 min deposit, i've read some bad reviews from 8 years ago, are they good/fast today?

The banks is 75% owned by Santander bank. They are a private bank.....not a retail‌ bank. Unless you need specifically private banking services just apply for an account at Santander‍ bank instead.

Santander international is at least 75k GBP minimum deposit. I'm looking for offshore non-resident options‌

I don't have any experience with caterallen and won't touch santander group, but let us‌ know how you get on.

What (more known) bank that accepts non-resident remote opening would you recommend with fairly low‌ deposit (up to $10k)?

charles shwab international requires $25k
barclays international requires $25k as well‍
