What country do you live in?
Oops, thought it was obvious - France.

It's not quite a matter of starting over again. It depends a bit on your bank and the banking system in the country you're in. When I moved to Germany (from the US) I was controller of a small plant. Opening an account in the same bank where the plant had its accounts was a real ego trip. The bank manager fell all over me - so a "letter of introduction" from your employer isn't a bad idea, either.
Cheers,
