Hi All, perhaps someone has some advice / comment!

I am having to have some USD payments made to my Vietnam local account (Vietcombank), which have to be done through an Intermediary Bank based in the US. I can choose from the following:

IRVTUS3NXXX - BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON

CHASUS33XXX - JP MORGAN CHASE NY

CITIUS33XXX - CITIBANK NY

BKTRUS33XXX - DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST CO AMERICAS

MRMDUS33XXX - HSBC BANK USA

SCBLUS33XXX - STANDARD CHARTERED BANK NY

PNBPUS3NNYC - WELLS FARGO BANK NY

BOFAUS3NXXX - BANK OF AMERICA NY

I am going to try and research charges - but any knowledge / experience / comment is welcome! (FYI I am not US citizen or have any account there)聽 Thanks!

Hi,

Recently I had difficulty to receive funds from USA via an intermediary bank. But I received it easily into by account using the Swift code of the ACB bank.

Other alternative is receiving via Western Union.

Best.
