I heard many have had experiences with their US bank accounts being closed and/or being forced to liquidate their mutual funds and ETF holdings when the institution realizes that the holder no longer lives in the U.S.
I know some people just use the US address of a friend or relative. I don't have any of those.
I am wondering, first, does anyone have any good experiences with major US banks that don't care about living abroad and will let your CD, checkings, savings accounts stay open?
Second, any good experiences with brokerages that allow you to maintain your mutual funds or ETF's? I gather none can let you purchase, but what about hold.
I have called Schwab, Fidelity, and Interactive Brokers and every time I call I -- amazingly -- get a totally different answer. So I've concluded it's better just to ask what people's actual experiences have been.
