    Have you tried using a VPN for your US credit union's online check deposit feature? This really is the easiest solution.

    If you want I can give you my login and password for NordVPN. You can download the app on you phone and give it a try. Send a PM my way.

    Most US banks have an App for your phone that will let you deposit a check by taking a picture of it.

    This is how I deposit checks in the US. My mail service scans the check and emails the scan to me. I forward the scan to the bank with the App.

    I have used Express VPN for several years, it is very good for US netflicks and many other sites that block overseas traffic. excellent customer service, if you find you are still blocked from a site the their messaging help is always available and they will work with you till the problem is resolved. Highly recommended, I have used a couple of others previously Express is the best by far.

    NordVPN is the one I have used for years. I've heard good things about ExpressVPN as well.

    Yes, VPN works anywhere on the Internet except China (mostly).

    NordVPN
    https://nordvpn.com

    You can also take a look at TransferWise for transferring money online.

    This is exactly what your bank does when you deposit money in to your checking account. If you put it in a savings or money market account they share a bit with you. This is a product of capitalism, not communism. These types of banking issues are part of living overseas, get a VPN service and use your bank's online check deposit feature (my banks, Schwab and Capital One, disable the service when using a foreign IP address). If your bank doesn't offer such a service move to a bank that does.

    hhaha, well maybe, i don't know not having been around every corner. i do read about the chinese activities in the south china sea that seems to concern all of our neighbors including australia. i read about communist activity on our island of negros and on mindanao. our philppine president called communists the greatist threat to the philippine in a message a couple of weeks ago. my neighbor who is a retired policeman advised not to travel overland to bayawan from dumaguete but to travel around the coast. as far as the philippines goes i really don't need any more that this this to be concerned. as far as living in the US i was and am used to living in a country targeted by at least three communist countries with nuclear missiles (if you count north korea). may i repeat, its not paranoia if they're really out to gitcha!!
