Read stealth and still not getting how to open enough bank accounts
 

Excuse me if this is wrong forum, but I just subscribed, read stealth and not sure if I should be discussing it contents on main forum. After looking through stealth and threads I am not getting how to open sufficient bank accounts (16) and amazed at how people have created hundreds of ebay accounts to sell to other users. How can they possibly open up that number of bank accounts for the ebay/paypal accounts not to be linked ? OK perhaps that’s a trade secret

…at a more regular level I had been looking at 16 accounts at least. 10 for trading in 6 differing markets and 6 backups, preferably more backups. So there are what I can make out 4-8 Uk banks I can open a paypal approved account with. How is it possible to open so many accounts from a limited bank pool. ? From what I head read I was getting it may be along these lines ?

1. Some UK banks allow you to have multiple current accounts, by going online and opening more ?
2. Register a whole load of limited companies and have a business account for each one ? That’s presuming paypal is fine with business current accounts.

i am wondering the same thing :pop2:

OK i found a thread which is giving an idea.

You go to bank and open sub accounts under the main account. Its very simple and fast, it takes the bank teller about 1min. You get a new bank # with the same routing #.
I also like to always use the same teller for all my transactions, with making new accoungs or other things. I also tip them an extra $100 for the trouble of making 3 or more sub accounts or $20 when withdrawing or transfering money into the main account. The idea is too build a relationship with the bank, i also only use credit unions and not big banks.
Hope this helps or gives someone ideas.

Yeah, I'd like to see you give a banker $100 to do something like that. lol.. Okay.........

If you were to tip a teller where do they put the money?? They have a camera on them all the time. they cant reach into their pocket and they cant put it in the drawer. what would they possible do with your generous donation. ha ha.

Write a check in the teller's name? Certainly not cash.

When they receive the tip they call the branch manager over to their window. I explain the tip to the manager and they always arrive it. I don't know what they do with it or how they send it, I don't work for the credit union. The only bank I ever worked for was Morgan Stanley (stock analyst). And yes I do tip them that amount when she opens all those sub accounts.

I don't mind, when she sees me coming into the bank and her window is closed, she opens it and I don't even have to stand in line. I know her work schedule so I know when to come in on certain days and certain hours. I am in and out before other people who do complex transactions.

I don't do that right now because my real job takes a lot of my time but within next month I will restart everything again and have multiple accounts, all stealth.


Oh and you dont have to give the teller a $100, a $20 will suffice, but keep going to the same teller. Find one that you like and find friendly. That teller will save you tons of time in the bank.

True same teller has its benefits.

[QUOTE=yotano211;252530] I also tip them an extra $100 for the trouble of making 3 or more sub accounts or $20 when withdrawing or transfering money into the main account.

That's being a little cheap where I come from. I like to tip the teller about a 1000$ for just being so helpful.:suspicious:

My Daughter works at a credit union now and has worked for a large bank chain in the past. I asked her about that tip thing and she laughed saying that they would be forced to refuse it as well as warn the customer. As It is unethical to give a teller a tip for any reason. She even said its a huge deal in their employee hand book not to accept them due to how out of hand they could get.

Its the banking industry where money is involved, Tips would only lead to mistrust, etc.

Im thinking you are wasting your money and they can do the accounts anyway.

Seems kind of odd to me and anyone I mention it to. just sayin.......

Instant dismissal for anyone in a UK bank to accept anything like that - would not, no, could not happen
:pop2:

Same in Canada - invitations to supper or drinks is an alternative...

I dont know in other states but in Vegas they do accept the tip. But they have to call the branch manager every time. I will look in to other ways to say a "thank you" in the future. A good idea from another forum member is an invite to dinner. I don't want to teller to get into trouble.
Thanks rsot for the supper for drinks idea.

I have never heard of tipping a teller, but it seems they expect tips for everything in the states.

maybe you can tip the teller if you bank at red lobster....just open up the seafood lover's account and be sure you have lots of clams...hahaha :bounce:

Is this plausible to tell my branch manager that I usually deal with? I already have 3 bank accounts with them.

I dont see why its any of their business why you need it.

Christmas savings, etc. people have tons of needs for different separate accounts. saving for a new fridge, anything. I would just tell them its private.

Its Vegas baby! Anyone would take your money there! ;)
