Q: If I open a bank account in distance(online) then (whenever) do I have to go to the bank myself one time so I can use it
I mean is there a need going a bank personally. Name of the Laws or codes please
A: No there is not, many banks are online only or allow you to bank from a distance, a couple that come to mind right off the to top of my head are BBVA and Capital One, I am sure there are an abundance of others, the only reason anyone would request an in-person visit would be if some specific document/s need to be signed in person (adding someone to an account or similar need) or if some sort of fraud is potentially suspected, otherwise there are numerous banks that would allow you to open an account without a personal appearance at the bank.
