How does one open a bank account?
I tried to open a bank account yesterday. The bank employees wouldn't open it, saying that I lacked paperwork from my employer or something (they could not articulate it well). Is there a bank that will let me open an account with just my business visa? Any idea what actually is needed to open an account?

Same as Jamie's items for Canadia but I opened the account in September 2014. Not sure what there asking for today. I believe you will need more than just your E visa though.Jamie_Lambo wrote:i have an ABA bank account, all i needed was...Riveraffront wrote:I tried to open a bank account yesterday.

I was standing right behind Jamie when he opened his bank account. For the sake of accuracy, let me report that he also informed the bank teller that he was a boxer and asked him if he had already being inside a boxing ring, with a grin that made the bank teller instantly break into a sweat despite the ice cold air con. He was out of there minutes later with his brand new bankbook.
Acleda and ANZ require Business license, WP or employment contract...ABA and Canadia do not.
I highly recommend ABA, especially for their online banking and app.

I'm not a negative person, I encourage people all the time...it's usually to f**k off! But, whatever.

Anywayyyyyyy . . . ABA is 90% owned by a major Canadian bank. Plus I've read a lot of positive comments about its services.

yeah ABA has been pretty flawless, their mobile app is really safe and easy to use, the lady who opened my bank account spent about 10minutes sorting it out on my phone and telling me how it all works,
the moblie app has its pros and cons though...
Pros
It sends me a notification every time money is withdrawn (and the amount withdrawn, good safety feature)
Cons
It sends me a notifications every time money is withdrawn (to read in the morning after a heavy night on the pop)
