- mikeash 8y agoI semi-regularly shop around for the best interest rate on a savings account and open one if I see one that’s sufficiently better. I’ve never had to visit one in person, and don’t believe I’ve ever had to send a scan of my ID. For a concrete example, I opened a savings account with Capital One 360 about a year ago. I did it at home from the comfort of my computer and it took me just a few minutes.
