Default Opening a bank account

Hi

I'm going to be moving to and working in Indiana from January and I'll need to open a US bank account when I arrive so I can have my wages paid into it.

Is this straight-forward to do? Do I need anything other than the usual ID?

I'd be interested to hear from other BE members experiences and any advice that they can give me.

Thanks

Adam

There is a good thread further down the page that should help.

anyway, search the forums, plenty of threads on the subject, also a very good wiki covering many of the basic questions on getting a bank account, credit score, getting a car etc.
