"After the introduction of the US Patriot Act, opening a US bank account as a non-US resident became almost impossible (unless you fly to the US) but, after weeks of research, countless phone calls (too many to count) and some luck, we found a way for non-US residents to easily open a federally insured US bank account. All you need to do is send a photocopy of your passport. We guarantee you will be able to open a US bank account or we will refund you in full. No questions asked."
