Pls Help

• Hi
  
  I am looking forward to start a savings account in with a bank in switzerland but i am not a swiss resident (I reside in London). Can anyone suggest good banks (preferably with an online banking facility). I contacted Swiss Post but they said I need to be a resident of Switzerland/France/Germany/Austria to do it... Can anyone help me in this regard, pls...
  
  Many thanks

• Credit Suisse

• UBS

  I think the best bank will be UBS since that's the biggest bank in Switzerland (not Crédit Suisse) with an office at Bishopsgate, London.
  
  All the best.

• UBS was somewhat arrogant

  I have tried to open a regular bank account with UBS in Zurich last week. I had my employment contract, ID and several 1000s CHF with me, but no work permit (yet) and only an address in Germany as I am about to move, i.e. have no apartment yet in Zurich.
  
  They requested CHF 25.000 Security Deposit!!!! Not funny! (I did not apply for a mortgage!!!) Welcome to Switzerland! I am looking for other bank options now.....)).
