Are we talking two different languages.
I have a current account. I have a credit card with a different supplier. This doesn't in any way make me unusual.

I also have an account in France because we have a house there and it's got funny forrin money. Again ... this isn't a radical or particularly inventive way of managing money.

I called you a lazy Luddite because you're seemingly incapable of getting photo id or a credit card in 2013

I could get photo ID if I wanted,
but I don't really need it, so I don't have it.

Fairly sure normal people in the 21st century don't juggle their finances across two countries.
