I helped a guy not too long ago who was in the UK get a US bank account. I charged him 700. 300 of it was refundable once he got his account card in the mail.

80.00 for insurance and 2 day mail.

He was a success.

The next guy I am helping is causing me a headache. So I am coming to my community and asking am I being unreasonable?

Without giving us a hint under which way you are opening the account... C-Corp, LLC, Partnership or Personal, don't know if the $700 is worth the trouble.

How are you able to avoid the risk of working with someone you don't know?

I'm not sure about US. In UK (if you're an EU resident) such a service would cost between 100 GBP to 700 GBP - depending on the agent.

Did you check your competitors' prices?

I was just opening a basic checking account with a savings account. I was charging 700 USD which is nothing if we are looking in the sense of GPB.

how do you open US bank accounts for non residents? Can they be linked to paypal business accounts?

Easy, and yes that is usually the purpose why the accounts are opened. I have a connection that enables me to be able to open multiple accounts.

My personal thing is that I set the accounts up, then I make the PayPal account for them, call PayPal let them know this is a traveling account. I set up the numbers, etc.

I am interested. What is the best rate you can give me?

I am Also Please pm me

another one who would be interested in this ...

I am interested as well please PM me, thanks.

how can i contact you? i need this too. could you pls pm?

I predict a shitlist thread.

This can be risky.do you use your id and billing to do this?you've got to be careful who you do this for

It's rather simple and pretty common for non US citizens to do what has is being talked about. If the people have a business already, they just expand their business to the US soil.

There will be no shit list and yes you do have to be careful but isn't that life.

Hi there, I don't own that site nor have any claim to it.

You can get this information anywhere you go and don't need to buy it. I will even say that. The reason people would buy it is because they were too lazy to do their due diligence.

wow man ... the contact that is opening these accounts really endangers his life and family as well as yours (FBI + HOMELAND SECURITY) shit ... all the best

no, your information is misconstrued. There are several places that offer services as a registered agent where you are the advocate for the business in need.

It is my opinion and only my opinion the the Op is a fraudster.
I have received PM's regarding this thread.
However I am not a mod and only have limited capacity.
If you couldn't see this was a disguised sales thread from the beginning
then you shouldn't be in IM.

I charged him 700. 300 of it was refundable once he got his account card in the mail.

Yeh! Alright mate. Do you think I'm some sort of fucking prick?
Take your fucking small scammer self and fuck off out of this forum.

This thread is six days old.
I wonder how many fools he's taken already.

I haven't sold anyone my service. I was simply coming on here to get feedback on an existing account. Whoever has pm'ed you is full of it if they are telling you they did business with me.

I have advised and guided some into how to go about making it possible for them to get the accounts themselves.

All it takes is having a Registered Agent here in the states that stands as an advocate.

I think you are a prick accusing me/derepping me of something that I have not done nor was not planning on doing. I don't have B/S/T thread so selling would be against the rules. There is a site that explains step by step how to go about getting an account.

I am on this forum to maximize my profits not from being a RA but from independent sources such as CPA, product development, and whatever else is out there that will make my business life expand.

This is the link that I have referred others to.. Business Accounts for Non US

I am not affiliated with the site but its a good go to guide.

more like misinformed :-) ... now it is clear the accounts are in the name of a Corp or LLC with the Registered Agent acting as the physical address to receive all matters legal. The bank has the Corp/LLC douments naming all Director or Officers in order to open the accounts.

You should be charging more...obvious a valuable service just by the response here. Be careful and protect yourself from Big Government.

So why are you asking members to send you money?

He was pretty confident about the service he is providing. So i contacted him (my bad) . So he first said he can do it at the price. But then 2 hours later he said that he will do it at rock bottom price if i can send him cash instantly. So i was thinking of ways to send him cash. However he then said that can i pay for his hosting which was mere $5. I said i can pay it through the company by calling them. He said ok and then gives me the number to call. Once i called that number he himself picked it up and was asking for my credit card number. I was like wtf. and hung up. I told him that i don't want to do the transaction with him anymore and just want to end this. He gave a lot of bullshit to me and then i deleted him from my skype. I just dont want other members to be duped by this guy. I know he can come back with a different username but then block him now.

Hmmm!
