After 14 months of frustrations we are delighted to now have a US business bank account with a reputable bank.

This is extremely valuable to us because most of our clients are based in America and, undeniably the $US is the currency of e-commerce.

Aside from accepting bank transfers to our business name, we can now use Google Checkout as a payment processor and, should we choose to, we are one step closer to being approved for a merchant account.
