Dear Aussies
 

I need help with couple of issues.

1) I'm using Telstras dongle, paying 50$ for 60 days and only 5gb. Do you know any better, cheaper alternatives?

2) Any banks that can help me opening a US bank account? any bank account in Europe?

3) Any banks that I should stay away from? Currently using CW and Westpac.

4) Any alternatives to L&G cards? already got like 9

5) Where can I get a good cheap US/Europe VPS?

2. HSBC can do it - internationally

Re: Dear Aussies
 

Thank you rsot, I hope it works.
Here is a link in case anyone interested. Branch Locations | HSBC Australia

Re: Dear Aussies
 

HSBC has a habit of asking for a high deposit to allow international accounts.

It's not that good if you can not make that.

:pout:

Re: Dear Aussies
 

How big? 4? 5? they can't ask 6 numbers.

Re: Dear Aussies
 

What's this can't?

If you know nothing about a bank, dont be saying they cant do something.

:rolleyes:

Re: Dear Aussies
 

True about HSBC requirements but they may have other options available these days - look at both chequing and savings

Re: Dear Aussies
 

No, they do not.

They never have in Australia. EVER.

Try to avoid suggesting them for any country but Canada. You give phake hope to users.

Re: Dear Aussies
 

Just called them, the requirements for opening an account in Europe(France,Malta) are 35k+ euros and a good reason(travel,family,study,investment...)

Re: Dear Aussies
 

How about a Load and Go Travel Card (they hold up to 5 currencies).

Re: Dear Aussies
 

Yep. I did try to advise you.

But rsot knows better NOT.

:pout:

Re: Dear Aussies
 

That is a big amount of money to have sitting around in a bank account doing nothing. WOW

Re: Dear Aussies
 

I guess it's to prevent poor people hide taxes or some other fraud issues anyway, could anyone please recommend Israeli/Australian VPS? what would be a good price for 1 and for 10? I know I can get it from here for like 15-20$ per VPS but i prefer to try cut the middle man and deal with the actual supplier or to learn create them by myself, could anyone please help me with that?

Re: Dear Aussies
 

HSBC invest that at a fairly good rate.

Their International arm is like a independent state.


With the right amount of funds, you can get 'deals'.

Mind boggling what they can offer if all the boxes are ticked.

Re: Dear Aussies
 

Are you looking at other sources for this info?

If not, why not.

Re: Dear Aussies
 

I am googling and reading for hours, contacting suppliers but there is too much confusing, boring, annoying, unreliable information... thought maybe someone can point me a better direction. Here is where i am now x_X Networks of Australia - bgp.he.net

Re: Dear Aussies
 

You need to go to where people are talking about using VPS/VPN.

It's like when you study a topic, you speak to others who have info on the topic.

I would recommend using a couple of VPS forums to start off.

If you speak to a 'supplier', they are only going to sell their product. You need more than that.

Here's a couple:
