Sony Bank has apparently launched an English app for streamlining the account opening process.
The app sets you up for a streamlined account opening. You apparently use the app's scanning tool to scan your documents and automate the KYC process; you get your debit card in the mail a few weeks later; sounds great.
Is there any disadvantage of using the app? Like, are you locked into some English-only section of the UI from where you can't do some actions, or is this just a standard Sony Bank account and I am muching adoing abouting nothing?
Edit: Specifically, can you use their built-in investment trust option from the Japanese UI if you signed up from the app? I want to get the Club S benefits, but I'd prefer not to do that via holding cash in the account and instead use their investment trust linkage.
