Wonderful @Emily Rimlins . It's great to know such positive feedback about BoC. I'll have a think about them too! thu&¤#
I've been browsing the BZWBK website with the aid of the translator, and in the online opening section it seems you have to be Polish to proceed online. The "Citizenship" field in the form cannot be changed from "Polish" as well as the address form which only allow addresses in Poland. Perhaps, for foreign citizens it's necessary to apply by phone/e-mail.

Thank a lot Emily! It's very kind and helpful from you. thu&¤#
The answers list is great. I think I'll go for a mixture between number 1,4 and 3 with the difference that in #3 my problem is not that much the currency exchange (though is still a problem) but also the extremely high fees the banks charges here to receive a wire transfer. Many of them have a minimum rate between USD 100 and USD 145 which increases with the amount received.

Any personal experience? This sounds really great and like a solution many are looking for!Milky Moon said:

Our experience with Hellenic was fairly negative as well. BOC are much easier but im not sure I would put them on the same "ease of use" list as some of the other offshore jurisdictions banks.Emily Rimlins said:
I understand. But I have nothing but positive feedback for Bank of Cyprus (I use them personally). Hellenic and Alpha are a pain but BoC is great. Have a think, maybe they are a good option too...

I need to open a current account for crypto currency exchange on the basis of biggest FX Broker, so 100% not a scum project. Now I have negotiations with some banks, but it's going hard.
Bunq's support answered me:
Thank you for getting in touch with us.
We are currently not looking into these types of proposals, as we are taking care of this internally.
However, if anything changes, we will surely let you know.
ABN AMRO:
Unfortunately we cannot, we have no policy for cryptocurrency at the moment. We nevertheless wish you all the best in finding a fitting banking relationship for your client.
Fidor asked company's profile documents, but now they are silent for a week.
Mistertango agreed to open an account, but this is EMI, not a bank...
I think with such kind of business it's a bad idea to contact with bank through public support, it will go better if I can contact directly with compliance departments.

Hello!
You can open a current account in BZWBK in Poland. I will get you the Head of Compliance email tomorrow when I am back at my desk, I can't access my emails from here. We open many accounts for Bitcoin exchanges there so we know it works.
Thanks!

I have reported the post for Admit to delete it. You have a strong point.Brutus said:
@Emily Rimlins don't post the email in the public forum like that. The person is likely to receive a lot of request now for accounts (even fraudulent ones) which may raise suspicion and stop the method from working. And the email is going to get picked up and used by spammers. Just saying if the contact is valuable to you.

I am sorry, perhaps you are right. We usually deal with a bank manager but I guess the best thing to do would be to complete a contact us form and explain what you need (and why you need it...answers below) and then they will get back to you.
Why open a bank in Poland?
1. "I am aware of the stability of Polish Banks and want to utilize their safety"
2. "I do not trust Cyprus banks due to the fact that recently client deposits were cut"
3. "I make a lot of currency exchanges and as Polish banks have the lowest fees, I want to utilize this"
4. "Polish banks are classed as some of the best in Europe and I want to hold my funds there"
Hope this helps!
