Hello, I am from Indonesia and going to study in Saxion starting in August this year. I was wondering if you could give me information regarding what banking service you use here? And how does it work? Thank you

You can simply open a student account here, most students use ING or Rabo Bank. To open an account, come to the bank with identification, acceptance letter from school (get it from student desk at school) and your BSN number. Your BSN number comes a couple of weeks after your arrival, so you can tell them that your BSN number is on progress and you can give it to them in a couple of weeks. That's it! Then you have a bank account. It would be very handy to have since people here pay everything using their cards instead of cash.
