Recently (this morning), I discovered an online bank named Monese Bank. I was looking for a way to get a UK personal bank account and found the suggestion.

monese.com

It says that any non-resident of UK or EU can start a bank account with them. I think it's a current account. No need for an address in UK or EU. Of course they'll need our passports. But they say that anyone can open an account via online.

They have a monthly fee. £4.95 for UK account & €5-something for EU account.

They offer a MasterCard debit card which we can use. They also offer a mobile app which is sort of like the passbook of the account.

While this can be a legit service such as Payoneer who offer the same thing multiplied by 4 and for free, I think this has some kind of value for people.

What do you think? Can this be the real deal or another shitshow like PayPal?

According to their description it looks like an UK bank but without UK residence.
I don't know if you are aware of, but in the UK your id is your proof of address, and of course, they accept it only if you are a UK resident. This one seems to be an exception (and that's their marketing).
