I tried to open an account there last week. They said they have a problem‌ with their correspondent bank and do not accept any new applications.
 
I'm sure they don't run away with your money however that's what⁤ we try to claim all the time - there is no point nowadays banking with⁣ old "new school" offshore banks popping up 20 years ago - in fact there business⁢ is dead and they were already using a correspondence that were again using Western Union︀ Business Service with shared account as correspondence so it's not only technical in practice very︁ hard to work in daily business but even such correspondent networks will dry out in︂ the next months / 1-2 years.

Look at Euro Pacific Bank they just need to︃ loose there last correspondence bank and then they claim to have technically issues as well.︄
 
I was about to start an application today for a client and I have been‌ informed by our associated banker in the bank that they are undergoing a major software‍ upgrade which is currently experiencing a disruption to the wire process. They expect this to⁠ resolve soon, however, sometimes these issues can take longer than expected she said.
We will⁤ be notified as soon as the issue is resolved and will update you accordingly

That's copy/paste from the email I received from the bank in response to my request to wire funds.
Well, at least they are not trying to pay out old clients with new clients' money.

Yes indeed the response is a⁠ copy/paste in order to be as objective as possible.
 
Each time I read such statements I⁠ run and look for a solution somewhere else, it always ends bad!
 
A software problem‌ doesn't cause these kind of problems unless something very tragic happened like they got hacked‍ or something. I'm gonna say its something else, probably lost their correspondence bank or something.⁠ Deal with caution!!
 
Yes like said once they loose Novo Banco SA‍ your funds are stuck.
 
Banks normally will inform you upfront about the updates or technical issues they expect. A‌ Bank what will send this as an answer on a question you have, I would‍ not trust them as in most cases there is something else going on. Software may⁠ never beetje cause of delays in service !!

I was caught out by a boiler room carbon credit scam in London some years ago. The business was run by a certain XXX who fled to Dubai; no idea if there is a Hamilton connection here...

No connection. They recently rebranded the bank as Hamilton from Alexander Hamilton, a founding father of the USA, who was born in Nevis.

After 2 months the bank is not returning my money I have instructed counsel to start a lawsuit. Let's see how it goes. First step is applying for a court injunction.
