Hi guys,
I'm in need of a Bunq Bank Account, personal or business.
Issue with personal is that they use onfido, and even if there seems to exist solutions to bypass Onfido verification, it seems maybe a bit harder than opening a business account.
Sad story is that they don't accept UK companies, which seems to be the easiest company to open really.
Is there anybody in the mentor group specialized in that EMI or who could give me some help about it?
Thanks in advance for your help guys.
Why specifically do you want to open with Bunq which is a bank and not an EMI? Also why does it not matter if its a personal or business account that seems an odd thing to say?
Sorry maybe if you explain what you are trying to achieve someone can help. I banked with Bunq for many years but not any more as its become a garbage bank.
I just need a Bunq account, both business and personal cover my needs.
The subaccounts are what I'm interested in. No massive amount of money will flow through it or anything.
I don't know if you can open a business bunq account without opening a personal one beforehand, and looking at their document requirements for business accounts, it might be easier in some cases to open a business account instead of a personal account. (Not an expert in bank accs opening with darks again so I might be wrong)
as martin already said. Bunq is a BANK not an EMI for that reason you will find it difficult to find anyone who can help you with darks or other documents to open an account there.
Your best chance would be the homeless model which got discussed a hundred times here already.
Short explain:
you find a homeless guy with a passport, fake the utility bill.
put an iphone in his hand, ask him to do the verification with his passport and other docs required in the hand and done deal.
you give the homeless guy €50 for his time and go
That's the easiest part of all.

Forget about Bunq and try somewhere else.
Last time I checked you could only open a business account if owners are resident in the country of the company also.

They offer business accounts for Italy, Ireland, Netherlands, Spain and France I think and that was it if I remember. I would look elsewhere.

Read about it and might give that a try.

Germany is also part of the list but might just focus on a personal acc there.
Thanks for your help guys.
