Hello Keron. You are an amazing person from point of view!! It is because of you sharing your knowledge about opening a JMMB account so that I could transfer the US funds from my e-wallet in Preply where I teach English online to PayPal and then to JMMB. However, this recent video just blew me out or the water. I have had a WISE account for a number of years and I was completely unaware of its power and what it is used for. Also, my Mom and I are US Citizens and we desperately want to get out of Trinidad. When I read your LinkedIn article about not being able to get money out of Trinidad once we sold our house, I was completely depressed. Now, there is a way out!!!!!! Many thanks to you Keron!!!!!!!! Best wishes, Light, love and blessings!!!! Karyn.
@@karynrudd thank you ...we still have a major bottle neck to get money out of Trinidad when you sell your assets. There is currently no way to move large sums of money unfortunately. But I am glad this video has helped shed some light in terms of what else you can do.
@KeronRose Thanks for your response. When I read the LinkedIn article about the lady who sold all of her assets in order to move to Canada to complete her studies; she was shocked that she could not move her money out of Trinidad. KERON: Isn't that situation called, 'A DICTATORSHIP'?
@@karynruddI would love to buy your ticket to Cuba or if you wanna travel a lil further to Afghanistan maybe even North Korea so you can experience real dictatorship. Please ah beg, hurry up and leave my imperfect country....
Hi Keron , Nice video however I wouldn't be surprise if the local TT banks will now try to cut out the loop-hole you pointed out especially the one with PayPal
The road to hell was paved with good intentions .. i dont know if he deliberatley or acidentally PDIDDY Trini Asses to the proverbial cross . Because he has presented no new Information that is not publicly known with 5 miniute of READING any google search. Hopefully this video is not seem by Mr Imbert and banking execs. The presenter mr rose does not have a "Horse in the race" nor does not reside in trinidad ....THIS video can do more Harm than Good . Hopefully he may realise the fcukeries of his endeavours and remove this Vain attempt at finacial advise without due qualification , which by the way is illegal in the us and trinidad espicially as he does not have any disclaimer at the start or finish of the disinformation video. God help us All
@@jasonbest7042 It's not really a loophole...whether you spend 1000usd on Amazon or SheIn or send that same money to Wise...we are still limited to only doing what the banks allow with our USD allocations. Atleast with Wise, you can build up your forex over time and you don't have the embarrassing restrictions you have when using your local Cards.
they will have to block PayPal entirely to block that loop hole because they don't have access to know what you do with the money from your secondary PayPal to your primary PayPal
All new Trinidadian Wise accounts are subjected to a waitlist. There is no timeline for this either. I don’t know why Keron is still suggesting Wise as an option right now.
I meant for business accounts not personal and why would a Trinidadian Wise account require proof of a Canadian utility bill?? Maybe you created a Canadian account??
@@Sweetpeajolz Tbh Keron been suggesting wise MONTHs before all this started to happen and even back then when a lot of sign up back then a waitlist started to happen. It just unfortunate that a lot of Trinis like to wait till last minute when the sh*t hits the fan. It's the harsh reality if you didn't got in when the info was there then you just have to find another way.
Thanks for the information Keron , much appreciated. It seems as though Wise has temporarily stopped taking on Trinidad Business Accounts unfortunately. Hoping that this is resolved soon.
I connected to wise today, 2nd Nov 2024 in T&T. Wise is not allowing for holding of funds in their account. Only transfer of funds to others from a connected bank account, , debit or credit card , wire transfer. There is no option for holding money in the Wise account. 3:21
I did the same. TnT nationals have limited features it seems. What he is suggesting that we do, is a bit on the sketchy side in my opinion; don't register under Trinidad and Tobago but to register in a different location. It's ok for him I guess, he probably has dual citizenship or something like that...and also......he's in Thailand. But for the rest of us who live here and only have ties here, I think technically what he's suggesting isn't allowed....but hey who knows right....if wise looks the other way....
Very informative kerron Question for you - what country did you set up your WISE account as I know there may be possible future limitations as a trini business owner and yes I do foreign business and local transactions Thanks and good luck out there!!
Hey Keron thank you so much for this info, I saw this video after I already setup my Wise account and now I'm trying to order my card but my JMMB card keeps declining when paying the $20, can you tell me how to do that part please
Hi Keron, this info is amazing. I read ur article and attempted to create a wise account. I used a UK address and it still asked for proof of address. Can I use my tt address, show proof and after the account is created, change the address to request for the card?
I opened my WISE account May, 2024. I did reach out to them via secure message and they did responded saying, 'I will not able to receive or hold any funds in this account.' I was directed to where I can open a WISE balance link. Also, you spoke about opening a US bank account using a legal USA address, are there any specific documents I would need to have this process done smoothly?
Hey Keron, I'm a barber from Trinidad. I use a free scheduling app called setmore which allows payments from square and stripe but they require a ssn to activate. Any work arounds for this?
No work arounds...you need to register your business in the US to access square or stripe. You also need a US bank account...only way to use any of those payment options.
I opened a wise account in TT recently using a uk address . But wise is telling me that I can only send money to foreign countries not receive in my wise account
But bro in case u didnt Kno there's a particular bank that already picked up on the usd sharing and guess what ? they literally put an entire block on using the card on Paypal. So u literally have to call the bank everytime for them to temporarily remove the block, then soon after the block comes bk
Hi @fazeedkurban7674 - Now I'm not saying to change your location to Canada and then use some random Canadian address because wise does not check, as that would be highly unethical 😬, but I used my brothers address canada address, and then the mailing address for where the card should be sent, can be your TT address. Hope that helps
It asks for country of residence and then the address information which matches that. Soo do you use Canada as residence and then a relative's address ?
Hey Keron great video brother. I currently have an online business and receive payments from this business to my wise personal account. But I am looking to take this business to the next level soon where I would be receiving more payments. Would you advise that I open a wise business account for this or continue using my wise personal acc. Also your wise account displayed in the video is wise personal or business acc?
Its an informative video but from reading the replies throughout...it appears that the methods noted do not work for Trinidad. Some details are incomplete. Apparently if you're a foreign resident and open a wise account...anywhere ..it can work but once you're in TnT you are unable to place funds in the account for any purpose
I tried to create a wise account with a friend's UK address. When I tried to apply for the digital card wise is asking for a proof of address. Did I do something wrong? How do I proceed?
Looks so. I was in the process of setting up an account, selected USA as the country and it took me to a page that listed the features for the USA and access to cards was not one of them
Please excuse the long comment. According to my AI the IBAN represents the bank and the account holder, the bank of the sender would see that IBAN and automatically enter any Swift details necessary to complete the transaction, the customer doesn't need to deal with Swift personally. When we make phone calls we enter a phone number and we don't really care what the phone company does in the background to facilitate the call as long as the call is successful, this is a similar principle. I am used to the Swiss banking system where IBAN is standard. When you have a Swiss account you have an IBAN. If TT banks were made to use IBAN you would just make a transaction in your banking app without Western Union etc., and the system would change TT dollars to whatever currency that you want to send or to the currency of the receiving account, the bank would collect a currency conversion fee and a transaction fee for international transactions but no fee for local transactions and no fee for bills with few exceptions, and of course if you already have USD then you would just send that. No begging, no praying, you just scan a QR code or whatever and make the payment. I love T&T but I am often annoyed when dealing with the T&T banks, it has been difficult exchanging Swiss francs by TT banks, they always say bring USD, Euros or Pounds next time. If I want USD in Switzerland I can go to a major train station in Zürich and get it changed immediately in cash by paying with my card, Swiss francs etc. or I can contact my bank and tell them in a private message in my app "I am ordering amount X in USD" and three days later I have an envelope in my mailbox with a bill and my money (in some cases the mailman might make me sign for it), I can even tell them what denominations that I want and I usually get it that way. There are many ways of currency conversion here as we are at the heart of international finance and business. I have an untested theory about the USD issue that maybe you could test for us just to see what would happen, let's say your TT bank refuses to give you your USD from your USD account, what would happen if you then say "ok, in that case I am closing my USD account, cash me out in USD right now", could they actually refuse to give you your money? That would be lawsuit time. Probably a civil matter but damn near criminal if you ask me, that is after all your money. If possible please try that and give us an update on what happens. If they give you your money back in full and in USD then you have literally defeated their system. The cashing out when closing the account tactic should work because they cannot force you to be a customer.@@KeronRose
Hi does the direct deposit through western union only work through bank of America? Or can it be done with any bank and credit union bank account that's US based?
Max out the USD allocation on your card is what he means. Every card has an amount of USD amount you can use on the card each cycle. Every cycle it resets. He is saying just max out the USD every cycle.
Why use PayPal though? I feel like you're losing too much in fees by passing thru PayPal. I use my CC to top up my Wise all the time, no 3rd party requred. It's expensive but like you said, desperate times.
@ I didn’t have to travel I just hired an attorney and they did a power of attorney letter and I got my passport and the letter notarized and I mailed them to the attorney and they created the account for me simple. Best decision so far
@@DanielHBTL how much did all of this cost in $tt..attorney fees, to open the account..and Can the bank of Georgia account be used for social media to receive payments?
@ the Georgian attorney fee was $280USD and the Trinidad attorney notary fee was $200 TTD per document I needed two documents notarized and FedEx fee to ship was about $650 TTD. that’s about it the account is like any other bank account you can receive international wire transfers your money would stay in USD or if you receive the money on PayPal you can send the money on the card from there.
Foreign bank account, PayPal, Wise all which I use these TT Banks don’t want you to elevate. It’s crazy! Imagine going to buy USDZ FROM THE BANK and they tell you you’re only allowed to get $200USD FOR a 10 day trip! It’s insane! There’s no shortage of USD IN THE COUNTRY they just give to who they want to
No wise doesn't do anything with TT dollars...and I never said it did. Wise does deal in 64 different currencies though...and this video I explained how I get my money into Wise. If I want to send money to Trinidad, I can add my Trinidad accounts as recipients like I showed....the money gets sent as USD but the banks convert it to ttd....which is why I said, I keep the money in my wise or bank of America accounts...so I have access to USD.
Lord. Now Wise has throttled TnT signups due to high demand lol. "Due to high demand, we've had to pause new sign-ups in Trinidad and Tobago. We should be back soon - join the waitlist to stay updated."
Desperate times, desperate actions...we shouldn't be in this position but nonetheless...ppl don't have choices when you are financially trapped in Trinidad.
Boss people have things to do. We should not even be having to do all this nonsense to get USD. Citizens are paying for the incompetence of both these parties in Power.
@KeronRose I tried to open a Wise Account with a Canadian Address (a friend) but it still asks for proof of address. Did something change? Or did I do something wrong?

If I want to send money to Trinidad, I can add my Trinidad accounts as recipients like I showed....the money gets sent as USD but the banks convert it to ttd....which is why I said, I keep the money in my wise or bank of America accounts...so I have access to USD.
how if I use a payoneer account?
You can use Payoneer if you get a job and the business pays you through it or if you get clients...you can send invoices to them.
Bro nice tips but I don't know this video might put you in trouble with banks.
Curious...Why would we be in trouble with the banks ?
Lord. Now Wise has throttled TnT signups due to high demand lol. "Due to high demand, we've had to pause new sign-ups in Trinidad and Tobago. We should be back soon - join the waitlist to stay updated."
I take it you didn't read the article as advised in the video or in the caption 🙂
That I did not. I ran to the sign up page after watching the video. More haste less speed.
Nice video but do you have a master class
cool!
US is so much easier to make than TTD. Real talk…
I couldn’t study in Trinidad high school because of “caste”
Cool video. Instead of putting your money on a friend's card, can you send it from your Paypal
No you can't
Wise is saying the card isn't available in Trinidad
You didn't google....or read the caption?
I once considered setting up an Amazon account and selling fake products using the same 2 man strategy. Takes 40 days minus amazon's fees though.
Why you didnt block your western union info?
You need US to trade with other countries😂.
Uncle Sam 😂.
1 global currency is needed.
What do you know about bitcoin investing?.
You do know this is adding to the shortage of US in Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹? US going out and none coming in.
Desperate times, desperate actions...we shouldn't be in this position but nonetheless...ppl don't have choices when you are financially trapped in Trinidad.
Boss people have things to do. We should not even be having to do all this nonsense to get USD. Citizens are paying for the incompetence of both these parties in Power.
BS
@KeronRose I tried to open a Wise Account with a Canadian Address (a friend) but it still asks for proof of address. Did something change? Or did I do something wrong?
Changed this week
Do you have a revised strategy for creating a wise account?
@@emmersondwarika9305 it changed this week ...so no...go open a bank account in another country outside of Trinidad
