I'm interested too - am considering HSBC for their Euro Dollar accounts (in Canada). They seem to be one of the few banks with outlets in Canada which can accept Euro Dollar wires (without any fake fixup pretend conversions - eg -> Euro -> USD/CAD -> Euro).
Some billing processers overseas can send Euros (converted from other currencies) at better rates than first converting to US.
As most Canadians know, a US money wire is routed through Bank of America first (and they take their slice), then, in some cases (pretend US accounts) converted to Canadian dollars (taking a slice) and the converted to US dollars (taking a slice) - not to mention when you try removing the funds.
Is anyone in Canada using HSBC for Euro Dollar accounts?
