Bank Account: I have my account with Poste italiane, I have had it for 20 years it was the cheapest at the time and it still is.  I pay  1.08 euro a month of commission and something like 40 euro once a year, but this is probably because it is still an old account (they tried to make me upgrade a few years back and I refused).  I have  debit card only.

Saving accounts in Italy, I find it a disaster. I recently opened a life insurance with Generali because that was simply the best I could find.
