Then it doesn't matter what bank you use in msia,...at any time you want to transfer a sum, convert into GBP and then either TT it over (expensive) or get the bank to issue a draft and carry over, or post it over (cheap)...

No matter what bank you use in msia, you cannot open a UK account easily from msia, will need a letter from your uni before any UK bank opens an account for you....post 911 and London bombing, they are very strict...

Which bank you choose in UK, I would just advise the nearest to where you stay or with ATM in campus...
