How is it possible an error like….. trying to make a bank transfer from Germany to FRANCE and the site choses itself USD instead of EUROS and you can’t even change…
The worst…. it the amount charged for an international transfer….
a SHAME!!!
If you don’t speak proper German, do yourself a favor and don’t open an account here. Their policy is to not take any inquiry at all in English, not verbal, not written…just saying.
I just called them yesterday and they spoke to me in English and were pretty helpful
Andrea! That’s my (bad) experience!
Dears,

Check if you are using the correct card. It is free in Germany or EU country if you use your VISA card.

Dear Sir, Dear Madam,
We are in the process of setting up a new company in Germany and are looking for an ERP system and a bank. Our preference goes out to the ERP system, Dynamics 365 Business Central, and we are looking for a bank that has a bridge with AMC Banking 365. Can you please confirm that ING bank supports this ERP system application?
Many thanks for your fast reply on this!
Kind regards,
Sylvie
