I'm having same delays on getting responses from BNY Mellon. Re fuzzie's q on US bank account, I was previously a US tax resident with social security number etc and it was hard enough then to get an account up and running. I haven't tried since taking up Aust residence again, but I can only imagine how much of a pain it would be. Unless you're looking for significant vol or value of transactions, I'd expect probably not worth the effort.
