how many bank accounts do you have?
 

HOw many bank accounts do you guys have? I personally have 9 accounts.(6 with one bank, 2 at another, and 1 at another). I opened them all up over the course of about 18 months though. I have a bunch of stealth accounts however with money that is elegible for withdrawl. Was wondering how many accounts I can open safely? Will chexsystems get mad at me?

I have about 60

Ha Fandango - nice. I run around at the double digit range but not all for Net at all.

i have about 8 open presently for ebay purposes only. 4 checking and 4 savings. I usually open a free savings everytime I open a checking. I get 1 debit card and throw the rest away and just transfer all the money to that one card.

Chexsystems is a reporting agency that mainly reports bad debt, or write off accounts.

However, banks are required to report suspicious activity to the FBI, even if you're not doing anything illegal. Keeping a good relationship with your bank will of course prevent this.

And to answer your question, I personally have over 100, and my companies have many, many more. You can never spread out your cash assets too far in my opinion.

alright thanks guys.

However should I close the bank accounts once I am done with them? If so should I wait a while before doing so like 6 months or something?

I'm currently using suntrust bank right now and have several accounts there.

Relationships..... with your bank.............. and then you can pretty much do whatever you want.

can i use my savings account from my checkings to open up a diff paypal? I already have a paypal for my checking but can i open another with my savings account? or will they be linked?

your savings will have a different account number, so if it's been used on a previous paypal no.... if not, then yes

cool thanks i didnt know about that. I was thinking of opening 2 more accounts but since i can use checking I am going to double ebay/paypal accts!

Do you guys open them all the same day? Or do you open them 1 or 2 days apart from each other so the account numbers can be more different?

i opened 3 at a time and all last 2 numbers from each where way different. Like 2044, 2079, 2090

I really don't think the account numbers matter, at all... as far as how close they are. I've never paid any attention to it honestly.

Amazombie started a thread about this regarding amazon limitations, he thinks they're catching onto the account numbers.

I don't have any bank accounts with high street banks, i do have about 200 e-currency accounts in multiple details though. i try to keep my money online and away from me so as to keep anonymous. my offline business is always in cash so have no need for banks. my debit cards are all for online accounts and would fill most wallets and all my e-currency can be withdrawn within 2 days if ever needed.

I'll take some of that money.... My wallet needs to be filled :)

I have a little over 80, but only use 25-30 of them on a regular basis.

I looked at what the minimum deposits where. Nice if you can afford it, if you have 200.

HSBC offshore banking required deposits

I don't use HSBC but yes, most offshore accounts are about £1000 to open. Most of my accounts are not with offshore banks, I don't have that much money,lol. I use most e-currency forms and many of their accounts are free to obtain.

Mmm I have up to 10 and wont go beyond that as im trying to fix my credit history now lol.

:heh:

Is that the sort of thing you are talking about?

Just googling most of what you said and ended up with companies like this. But have not read enough to see what can be done with them.

I do use all of those yes and many more. I trade on many sites in many products and need all forms of currency. A lot of those that you will find are Russian and South American companies that trade in gold stocks, so your money would go into owning part of the store of gold. The currencies are non refundable and can not be charged back like paypal and credit card payments, also most of them are completely anonymous. I also use offshore in Panama, Belize and Costa Rica as they are anonymous and completely untraceable as run through lawyers registration details and country laws do not permit details being given out for any business dealings(these are not cheap). Most currencies and accounts allow people to be scammed when some completely refuse money to be taken back after it has been paid. I prefer the non refundable ones. Paypal CAN be transfered to most e-currency forms through exchangers, thus stopping paypal from ever taking it back, unlike just moving it to a seperate stealth or real paypal account! Some like WMZ(webmoney) can be purchased by credit card and again are non-refundable. So then any attempts for false claims for scamming(i.e. non-delivery,etc) would be useless.
