Hi all,

Have any try http://www.swissnetbank.com ? They allow you to open a swiss bank online. But they don't seems to provide credit card rght now. They just allow you to wire transfer the money.

Any comments about this bank?

If you're looking for an anonymous offshore bank account, I don't think this is it. :) From a quick look at the web site it's basically an online bank with a very limited product range that allows them to run more efficiently, and thus offer a better interest rate.

Australia has something similar, ING direct - fully electronic, 4.5% interest per annum, NO fees at all, overnight withdrawals to an account at a 'normal' bank. It's just a very low risk way of making some money on your savings, you still need an account elsewhere for day to day expenses.

Cheers.

I don't think this will be much use unless you're in Australia. However, do a web search for "ING direct" and you may find one closer to you, there are similar setups all over the world...

Cheers.
