Yes, probably because you have been a client for this long. I know what bank you use and they don't offer this any longer. If you have small activity, then it's a maybe for new customers but otherwise, yeah.EliasIT said:
My account is still open and has been for the last 6 years, if not more. The bank asked for some documents a while ago, they received them and I haven't heard anything since. And no, I will not disclose which bank it is! That would be foolish and asking for trouble.
But of course, you might be right regarding new accounts being opened, if that is at all possible.

I definitely don't have the same problems with banks as many here do, so no, I don't believe that's the case for everyone.
Are you reffering to remote opening only? Or in-person one too?JohnLocke said:
It is definitely certain that one cannot open a bank account in the Republic of Georgia the way things stand now and today - you will be rejected already at the first phone call. It is possible that if you set up a "real" local business and live there, you might be allowed, but for all the rest of us, it's a huge no.

Don't worry it's just a matter of time before you encounter some banking problems, unfortunately. Like all those naive wise fans 😉EliasIT said:

There is a lot of offers for remote bank accounts opening with both TBC and BOG. Agents they require POA to open up an account. POAs had operation and closing of accounts power in them too. I was like hmm. That's a big No NoJohnnyDoe said:

Nope, POA had clauses which had closing of accounts permissions included in it. So you can loose your entire account by signing it off.lory said:

I was wondering if you open the account remote and after account opening make an appointment with a bank manager if that would keep the account open?

Try looking at their POAs first. Some of them are not evescottfox said:
Well, except if you are American (or US resident), you can always open a Solo Bank account in Georgia, remotely... it was an excellent option - I haven't checked lately, but they seem to be legit.

That's harsh, better stay away from them. Do you know of a bank in Georgia that does not have such clauses ?Davis123 said:
