Ratings and reviews

Stay away! I would give 0 stars, but that option does not exist. From my perspective, these people are running a scam : It costs money, which they promise you "will get back". Don't believe them -- you won't. Unfit for any purpose: can't transfer money in or out. Can't pay online with it. It is simply a money hole. Their customer service hangs up on you 1:30 after saying "your expected waiting time to speak to an agent is 3 minutes". If you value your money, use other services. My 30€ is gone.

At first I thought maybe I lost my 25 Euro, then after waiting for a few days they activated my account. I contacted them on Facebook, they responded immediately and told me to wait for their email. I also send them an email with my ID for ID verification. At first I was a bit harassed, but they finally activated my account, which I liked.

worst experience ever: i was trying to find a bank agent for 2 hours using their map (because it doesn't show actual data), paid 26 euros, and on my first try to log in the app i got my acc closed! i contacted support 4 times by call and 2 times by email and got ignored!!! please, do not use this awful service
