As a founder outside USA, I have had a tonne of trouble getting a bank account in the US. I finally manage to convince one to open an account with my ID details. But they won't let me use a virtual office/virtual post as mailing address for my company. They want a 'physical address which is not a mailing service'.<p>Anyone here from the US willing to be an 'adviser' so that we can give your address to the bank? Don't worry, we won't need you to do anything with the bank. The account will have my ID details. You might receive some mails. But we can pay you to transfer those.<p>I know this is unusual but really, I'm out of options!! Its been such a struggle. We're ready to make money but this banking crap won't let us!! Startups are super difficult as it is, but on top of it we have to deal with this 'red tape' everywhere. Hope we get some help.<p>Thanks for reading guys. I will let you know about who we are when you contact us. The email is in my profile.<p>Wouldn't mind some helpful tips on US banking for foreigners either.
You have a law firm, right? You can use your lawyer's address. Or give them Regus. Regus addresses are semi-permanent, not a PO box. A bank should accept that.
