Savings I find the easiest to open. It's almost natural that people have more than 1 savings now.

1. Sometimes BoA will do this to customers. I would check your other accounts to see if they closed them. BoA closed my accounts without any indication because I had 8 savings accounts with them with thousands of dollars going in and out. Not that BoA isn't good for stealth but just watch out with them with opening/closing accounts and large deposits going in and out constantly.

2. For the reason above. Some banks don't like it when you "account hop". Also I am testing out a lot of banks and compiling a list to help other users know some good banks to use with stealth.

I agree in having a few accounts (savings preferably) per bank but if you have 20+ stealth accounts like me one bank isn't going to cut it.

Sorry for the double post.

Just wanted to give another update!

Sent 2 payments of over $1000 to my Bluebird AMEX card it they both went through fine! This is one of the best cards I know of! Completely incorrect names on both the deposits!

As for Suntrust Bank I have verified that both checking and savings accounts work with incorrect names and can take $1000s worth of deposits at a time!

It's not just BoA. Any bank will review accounts that are high risk.

Looks to me like if you don't have a business account, they tend to close without asking for any documents from you.

If you have business accounts they will ask for a lot of stuff.

do you guys think opening a business account is better than opening and using a personal account with stealth or it doesn't matter?

Business accounts tends to have higher fees - factor that in

If you have a registered business then by all means, business account it up for fiscal end review and tax declaration

What matters is your plan.

You use whatever bank accounts that suit your selling.

As rsot said fees might be higher for business bank accounts. I prefer them for the practical side of business & access to funds.

Just wanted to update,

I have also tried a SunTrust Bank Savings Account. Completely incorrect names $1000+ transfers fine!

I am loving this bank. Paypal always completes bank transfer in 24 hours and its in the accounts the next day!

Nice one, Claise.

Keep the info coming.

Happy Stealthing

Quick question, did you just sign up for the Bluebird Amex card on their website?

PS This thread is amazing, extremely useful information.

Nice Claise - going to see if this SunTrust is accessible by Canadian citizens abroad (e.g. online with documentation sending in) or..like some US banks, have to go into branch for registration.

Yes, I just went online and got the card by filling out the info on the website. I did not get the starter pack from Walmart.

Canadian citizens can have SunTrust bank accounts but go to branch in person to signup - confirmed

Anybody out here in California use any of the regional banks out here? Wonder if anybody has had success with OneWest Bank and California Bank & Trust. Might try em out and see.

No but do keep us informed. California Coast Credit Union is good. Union Bank is good. I have a rabobank nearby and just got a checking account there. I'll post here after I confirm it.

Rabobank - first time I heard that - checking it out

:thumb: good bank. Should check out OK.

Not used Rabobank for months. Hmmm, there's a thought.

:spy:

Sounds likes exclusive to certain states

And Canada.

It's out here in OZ as well.

Known for agricultural lending.

Not great for banking but yes, agricultural venture capital application.

@rost

If you are not using the bank, why would you say this?

I am saying this to clarify for other Canadian and international users here - there are quite a few

Thanks for helping build the list everyone.
I will be trying out the suggestions that I can and report back on things like incorrect names, deposit amounts, and so on!

Hey Everyone,

Just wanted to update you,

I have tried both a savings and checking account at Chase Bank.
Both transfers were over $500 and completely incorrect names!

Also I have found out if you have Suntrust online banking you can open another savings or checking online in under 3 minutes for free with no opening deposit and you get the account number the next day!!! Great for stealth!

Suntrust should give the Acct number instantly, I believe it's in the signature card that you print. I could be wrong, but I have about a dozen suntrust accounts, it's been a few months since I've opened one, but I've alway's gotten the numbers instantly.

Has anyone tried using Wells Fargo with a different name?

Actually the only signature card I ever had to fill out was the one I got sent in the mail when opening my initial Checking account.
After that it has been an open instant online. No need to send in anything!
Weird haha

BOA does act up once in a while. I had security call me for odd things...not to be trusted. You never know if they notify Uncle Sam about large money so I'm getting smaller there.

They all do that. Do not be fooled into thinking otherwise.

Certain procedues according to the amount.

:spy:

Lot of posts around that indicate that Wells Fargo is hit and miss - has worked for some, has failed for others...both on Az and on PP.

Guess I should wait until couple month or so and close my account with them.

It has worked for me so far, have you tried linking your account?

Nope, didn't link any of my bank accounts yet.

Won't do so until sales starts coming in.

I have 4 accounts with WF. Never a problem.

Avoid closing accounts. See what happens in a few months.

Wells Fargo has been going OK lately. Can sometimes be trouble. But that has been more the fault of the account holder.

:typing:

Has anyone tried suntrust or key bank with AZ?

Key Bank & SunTrust both work for PP withdraw with completely incorrect names.
I recommend SunTrust, opening an account is easy!

I tried Suntrust and Keybank, Because I am in California it appears I am out of their service area.

I am testing GoBank and BlueBird right now for PP

Anyone tried TD Bank yet?
