What's everyone else doing?

I'm with a bank that has branches in Dubai - so would I be best to set up another account with them there? If people do have it put straight into accounts in the UK - do you get it transferred in AED's or pounds?

Many thanks,
Helen
I opened an account with Emirates Bank without any problem. You can have a VISA Electron card and internet banking which allows you to transfer your money to any other bank account. Highly recommended!
