Correction! The name of the bank is not "Asia-Europe-Americas Bank of Seattle", but "Asia-Europe-Americas Bank", and has its office at 1505 Westlake Avenue North, Suite 125, Seattle, WA 98109. The website is actually www.aea-bank.com, presumably a 'cybersquatter' owns the for-sale 'aeabank.com'. I see again (like other US Banks) they require USD$10,000 to open a bank account for a business! (USD$5,000 for an individual.) ... Likewise, the monthly fees on US bank accounts dwarf the average Australian bank account keeping fees and shows how reasonable the e-gold agio fee really is! I have emailed them for any special rates they might have.
