I know that it is possible for non US residents to have a US account but I can not tell you wether the site that you posted is genuine.
You could ask them for references from existing clients and the like.

I opened my account with only about 6 bucks that I had on my paypal and got my visa card fedex.
The 1000 is recommended but you dont need it.

Interesting, Most U.S. banks will require citizenship and SS# to verify deposit account holders, so if getting a Visa card is your main concern, then Paypal or eTrade may be your better option depending on what country you do reside in. Good luck to all, MIke

A part from the mentioned options it's really really hard to open a US bank account being a non-US resident. Especially since the 9/11 events things got much stricter.

If you have this requirements you can open an account in US without being a US Resident. note: this is not etrade account, tomato bank, accent card, well cargo and VMI card. Requirements: - Copy of Passport(e.g. Your Country Passport) - Copy of National Identity Card (e.g. Driver's licenses) or Address Documents - Utility Bill (e.g. electricity, gas or water bill, or tax bill) - Bank / Credit Cards Statement for last 3 months or Reference letter from current banker (must state that the account is in good standing)" or - Lease Contract - W8 Ben (if applicable) [ Each applicant should complete and sign a separate form for the following circumstance For info: http://usbankaccount.xdownx.org/Thanks
