J:I'd like to open a bank account please.
R:Certainly. Savings account or current account?
J:What's the difference?I know the American system but not the British one.
R:I see. Well,a way of savings account,you can pay money in and take the money out.and you'll get interest on your money.But you don't get a check book.and you can't hand over the draft.You can't set up standing order then yourself. If you want to do all that,you must open a current account but with the current account,you don't get interest.I'm sorry.Is that clear?
J:Yes,I think so.well, I need to set up some standing orders and I might need a check in the future,so I think I'll open a current account.
