Hi, Trevor P - UK
my new employer in Kuwait is paying me by cheque as I can't have a bank account until residents status.
1) Can I exchange for cash at any bank?
2) How do I stand for International bank transfers?
thanks, TP

Hi,

My reply isn't going to be of much use to you, but here goes.
I have been here since 01 Sept and I am paid into my UK bank account - could your employer not make international payment/transfer?.

Cheers
Harry

I can confirm the same was done by my employer until I got the residency sorted out.
