Guest julie2g1b Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Hi all as some of you know we go over to perth nov to validate, was wondering is it worth opening an account before we go then go along to activate. as we could slowly transfer money into it we would at least be set up when we do move for good. prob is do you need an address once there, plus if cant sell the house and decide cant go over would it be easy to close from the uk.............. just an idea i thought off julie :wubclub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JoanneHattersley Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Go and see the bank and ask, thats the best bet. Bankwest are a great bank as they have NO bank charges! I am also getting almost 10% interest on my savings. Worth giving them a look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest christel Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Hey...Bankwest is being bought out by Commonwealth Bank...as Bankwest was underwritten by one of the British banks that is in trouble...hence they are looking for a bail out here too..having said that they are safe but really you just need your ATM card and set it up when your here..you need a permenant address to set up bank accounts you will also need forms of ID which is all down to the international banking laws because of money laundering and fraud etc..x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
