I had begun to worry that I had no chance of getting an ordinary bank account in Switzerland. I am happy to say, that I have found a bank that caters for folks who count their change when shopping, :ie most ordinary people.
I made arrangements to open an account by email, and called in, gave them some money, and in return they handed me some pieces of paper. I now have an online service, and all the necessary access. If I spoke and read French, it would be a doddle.
One of the ongoing problems with "having a Swiss bank account", is that folks who know me, now think I'm really rich. If only it was true.
I'm really happy that one of our hurdles has been jumped, and now all we need is a permit from the Canton, and we can complete the purchase, and enjoy more views like this.
