You have to live in germany to get a Fidor Bank account(at least a private account).

Why not ask the banks directly? BTW afaik no banks are against bitcoin in EU.
I heard about problems with sending money to exchanges via an Austrian Bank(I think it was Raifeisen)

Hi Folks

Is there a white list or black list of banks who have been known to just shut accounts because of bitcoin related commerce?

We are about to launch a bitcoin only business and want to have a bank account to use with bitpay and don't want to wake up one day with account suspended simply because we only accept BTC.

What banks are recommended by people that are bitcoin friendly and won't just shut my account 1when they get funds only from bitpay.

To get you started:

Plenty germans had the same problem with their personal bank accounts and praise the fidor bank[1] now, but I personally have to experience with them and I was unable to find an english version of their homepage.
