British Citizens and US Bank Accounts for DVC

[Cathydisneynut]

Can anyone help? As DVC only take US bank accounts for direct debits, does anyone know how or where a Brit can set up a US account? I'm really struggling with finding info on this!

Thanks!! :)

Hi, is this for finance payments or maintenance?

[Cathydisneynut]

Either or both Ollie. it would be great not to have to fork out for the maintenence fees in one go!

We have started saving £80 per month in a high interest account and will then pay the maintenance bill by Virgin Credit Card for double miles at the end of the year. We will then clear the card with the savings. I don't think I will need a US account to pay them. Ian

Good idea Ollie! Earning a bit of interest!

And Virgin miles:wink: I don't know if this info helps but next time you visit take ID and visit a bank in Orlando to open your account. Maybe you could contact a bank for what info they would need from you.

I believe Slowhand has a bit of experience in setting up US$ accounts but he is at the wedding right now.
