Question

I need to know how to open a bank account in Australia b4 i get there?

Answer 1

contact Australia house.

or look up banks on the net, some of them have branches over here and presumably they could open it for you here.

my sister went there on assisted passage early 70's and here's was opened with help from Australia house but dont know if they still do it.

if you want to transfer money over there to your a/c then use currencies direct who give full rate and no charges. they are on the web
