Jasmine,

Go to www.virginislandsdailynews.com and when you are there you can find a link to the Virgin Islands phonebook. No bank of America there is a banco popular out of puerto rico and some banks from nova scotia down there.

Bank of America would be welcome! No such luck. First Bank is pretty wide spread. They have online banking, numerous ATM's around the islands and one of their branches on STX is even open until 6 PM daily (versus 3-3:30 when the others all close). They have Saturday morning hours, too. That makes them pretty user friendly.
