One of friends recently advised me that the only way to get love from Citi, HSBC, or Heng Seng in Beijing is to tell them you will be making a 6 figure (USD) deposit in the near future; apparently, they don't bother to follow up when you forget to make the deposit. I will say that the aforementioned backs are considerably less crowded than the Chinese banks. My Heng Seng friend walked me over to ICBC after she told me she didn't want my business and was taken aback by the throng of humans.
