<p>[QUOTE=&quot;EWC3, post: 4018429, member: 93416&quot;]Yes, but I think (?) there is, or was, a bigger problem that people in the US may not be aware of (?).&nbsp; From the UK I joined Transferwise a few years back and was immediately given 6 bank accounts.&nbsp; ($, £, and Euro)&nbsp; in two sets (business and private).&nbsp; Now electric transfers in the UK are fast and free, and in much of the Euro zone its much the same - even to £.&nbsp; But the problem remained getting funds from $.&nbsp; So I approached a few US dealers suggesting they open Transferwise accounts also.&nbsp; But they could not.&nbsp; US banks were making it near impossible it seemed.</p><p><br /></p><p>Actually I saved quite a lot when&nbsp; traveling in the US on exchange rates using a Transferwise bank card - so that part worked.&nbsp; And it sounds like people are now getting good access to the Transferwise payment system from the US.&nbsp; Has that happened recently (?)</p><p><br /></p><p>The real deal with Transferwise was however the getting of multiple currency&nbsp; accounts and the ease of transactions that creates.&nbsp; You could stack up funds in $ and then move them out very cheaply once they accumulate and its not clear that is yet being allowed in the US?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
