Default Re: Help me move to the US! Some basic qs re. cellphones, bank accts.

It's generally cheaper to buy a cellphone from the company website as opposed to a random shop on the street. Also, if you're working for a big company, just pick whichever one you can get a discount on.

As for a bank, they're all the same, so find one near where you work and/or live and just walk in. Lean towards national or superregional banks over local ones. Again, if you work for a big company there will likely be a preferred bank that you can get like a checking account with free checks or something like that with.
