    Are there any banks still

    As far as I read in this and other forums (not personal experience), unless your counterparts are ultra well-known global companies (Amazon, etc), they are quite unreliable if you transact over 2 or 3K a month. They freeze accounts, hold the funds for 6 months, ask tons of paperwork for small...

    Bank account suspended

    Why would the bank want to suspend your account all of the sudden? Did you do any suspicious transaction? How long had you been banking with them?

    Credit Card to Wire Transfer

    Hi @auric. Thanks for you comment. Yes, I'm considering AdvCash but they have two downsides: high commission for credit card (almost 3%) and I think the outward transfer is not in my name. I'd like to know if someone here know a better option. I found that SwissQuote or Dukascopy provides a...

    Hi All, Does anybody know about any EMI, PSP, etc that provides affordable credit card funding (2% commision approx) of the account and then allow wire transfer? (preferably in your name). Notes: Own credit card / Own bank account / No EU residence. I know LeuPay does the trick but I've read...

    Hi again @Arthas . Hope you found the solution you were looking for and are still reading the forum ;). I have one more question about SQ. Are they easy going with funds withdraws?

    Offshore bank account - Medbank in Malta

    @John2784 No, I haven't. It seems they don't provide any debit/credit card as they are mostly an investment bank.

    Alternative to Sq bank

    Thank you @Arthas! It's good to know that about SQ. With regard to your query, I was about to suggest you the same alternative that @Milky Moon just did moments ago (Dukascopy). I think they have the same business model than SQ. I haven't tried their services either.

    Alternative to Sq bank

    No @Arthas Does SQ allow third party deposits in your account or just transfers in your name? Is it a shared IBAN or one of your own? (No references codes, descriptions, etc) Thanks!

    Offshore bank account - Medbank in Malta

    As far as I know, in order to open an account online you must be EU/EEA resident. I don't know if the same requirement apply if you pay them a personal visit.

    List of EMI and Digital Banks

    Hi again @zarn . Thanks for the detailed answer about Leupay, it seems they are becoming a platform intended just for micropayments. About the loan repayment, Was it a considerable amount or something under EUR 10,000? As you live in Europe you can try Wirecard Bank from Germany and Bunq from...

    Looking for ewallet with unique Polish Iban

    Great, thank you @Milky Moon ! I'll e-mail them to find out if they accept South American countries. I was a bit afraid to place my funds in a bank where I have to rely only on Google Translate to try to understand every single step. I found that a bit risky though I love the stability of...

    Looking for ewallet with unique Polish Iban

    Thank you @Milky Moon ! Probably they only support EEA/EU . Months ago I registered with another German bank, completed the whole sign-up process (entering phone number, address, country, etc), went through the identification process through PostIdent, sent the opening fee, and weeks later they...
