Affirm VS TransferWise Debit Card

Well, I thought of that, too, but it was 100% through https://affirm.com as I can see the loan through the app and have viewed it through their website. I dont believe that brintoro couldve gotten my information as the loan is directly through their service, not brintoros. Itd be the same on any service like amazon, id imagine.

Unfortunately, I can't help much because I keep all of my development devices updated to their latest version. If I were you, during/after all this, I'd hit up affirm.com, and buy myself a new MacBook. Or maybe ask your employer to upgrade for you because it's obviously important for development.

You can get a European bank account with Wise and transfer the money to your SA bank account at much lower fees than PayPal or whatnot. You will also get much better conversion rates than having the company do SWIFT payments into your SA account. Source: 11 months ago

Have you looked into a Wise multi currency account? I believe you can setup SEPA (euro) direct debits with it as well as send SEPA transfers in euros with low fees: https://wise.com/gb/multi-currency-account/. Source: over 1 year ago

If not, I would also recommend Wise. It's a great service, especially if you are going to need to fund the account with both GBP and EUR. Not only can you use Wise to move GBP to EUR, you could also use it as a multi-currency bank account. Source: about 2 years ago
