THIS RELATES TO THE
ACCOUNT PREVIOUSLY RECOMMENDED AND CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE TO SOME US
NON-RESIDENTS:
Opening a non-resident bank account in the USA
Reports or programs are
offered at all sorts of prices for the opening of a bank account in
the USA for residents and citizens of other countries. Some of these
cost several hundred dollars; a few offer additional facilities
such as company incorporation, proxy mailing addresses etc; certain
US banks require a large deposit or minimum balance and charge high
service fees.
For those that want basic current account
facilities, there's no need to get involved in unnecessary expense
for fees, startup charges, minimum deposits etc. when a bank account
can be opened at virtually no cost.
Since the Patriot Act came into
force, American banks cannot open accounts for non-US Citizens
online, via email or fax. Applications can only be made on paper
and sent with supporting documents by mail (or courier).
The bank account can normally be set up and running
within 7-10 days.
There are several easy ways to purchase this
report: by credit card using PayPal or AlertPay
or
ePay. E-gold is
no longer acceptable as it is an
elaborate scam operation which has caused us loss, without
explanation or recourse by closing our account. See below.
Who needs to open a bank account in the USA and
what are the main benefits?
A US bank account is very useful for
internet
marketers and affiliates. Many business owners operate globally
today and need to be able to accept payments for selling their own
or affiliate vendor products; they may need to pay for online
services such as advertising and marketing.
Some affiliate marketers are based in countries
where international banking transactions are restricted by their own
governments, or where the country itself is on a 'blacklist' due to
fraudulent activities of some of its citizens. An example is the
Philippines, where PayPal and ClickBank prevent residents (including
foreigners who are living there) from opening accounts or receiving
payments there.
Operating a US-based
bank account with a VISA debit card alleviates
problems that many businesses have, especially those outside the
USA. One important feature is the ability to draw cash from any ATM
where the VISA (PLUS) network operates. There are now over a
million of these cash dispensers in 170 countries throughout the
world.

and application forms, has lived, worked and held bank accounts and
VISA cards in different countries on several continents over the
past
forty years, and has found no problems with the recommended bank or

otherwise, for passing on this information or recommendation.

recently come to my notice that applicants from other countries and
