Looking for an easy way to send money back home to pay those bills? Well, I have news for you that will hopefully simplify your money transferring woes. Simply walk into a KEB bank branch office and ask to open a special remittance account.
You need to bring your Arc, Passport, as well as the banking information from your bank by home including bank account number, routing number, bank name and address. With your new KEB remittance account any money you put in is automatically transferred to your account back in the states. It’s so easy your cat could do it! You can even do this online rom the leisure of your own home on your desktop computer. You also need a regular bank account to link to your special remittance account just in case the money you send comes back.
The process took about forty minutes. I also ended up getting what I thought was a high interest savings account but really the rate is so low that I will be looking for another bank for that. I have my eye on Tomato Bank and Prime Bank and will let you know how that goes.
