Wise closing my business account need new EMI or bank

[ayousupply]

Ok, guys so requested refund from Wise to 3s Money. They confirmed the documents are‌ ok (they cannot guarantee anyhting regarding the transfer but say the documents are fine)

Wise wrote it can take up to 40 business days until I hear back from them.‍ What a bunch of assholes if it really takes that long

 

[Marshal]

At least you know that you will get your money back. That's one‍ of the good things about Wise.

 

[FDS ADS]

You can open an︃ account with Mistertango, Payset and/or Paysera.

 

[ayousupply]

Yes. I mean nobody guaranteed me‍ that I will get it back. They say it may take up to 40 days⁠ until I get a reply. So fingers crossed everything is fine and they will give⁤ me the money back soon

 

[Clank]

For me it took only 3 days. I recently got my wise account deactivated,⁣ made an appeal and got my money back.

 

[ayousupply]

Wow nice, this‍ gives me hope. But another member whose account was closed waited also 1 month.

Did you appeal or asked for refund? Because appeal means you would like to get your⁠ account reinstated.

And also, how⁢ high was the amount? approximiately

Another question, maybe I should start a new thread for︀ that.

But can I get in trouble because of Wise? I mean the funds coming︁ from an offshore company ( Gambling company) But I provided only marketing (SEO and Linkbuilding)︂ services.

My company is in Estonia and I am in a country where gambling is︃ strictly prohibited.

So will I get in trouble for that personally?

 

[Clank]

You need to make an appeal︁ to ask for a refund.

 

[ayousupply]

Yes I did that.

What amount was your sum? And why did they close‍ your account? Because a transaction?

 

[Clank]

In my case low 6 figures‍ but it was a personal account.

I don’t know why it got closed, I just⁠ used it to send money to Thailand (real estate).

 

[ayousupply]

I guess you were on of the lucky ones. Hopefully‍ I will have similiar luck as you but somehow I doubt it. Because I need⁠ the refund urgent, otherwise the seller of the digital asset might sell to someone else⁤ 🙁 really worst timing they could close my account

 

[ayousupply]

Just an update, Wise refunded the money from my personal account (200$)

But not yet‌ the money from my business account (400,000$)

 

[jafo]

I wonder if‌ it's because of USD. Anyone know?

 

[Clank]

For personal accounts they are quite fast

 

[ayousupply]

Sorry, I wrote it in USD but the account is in EURO actually

 

[bandanna]

In addition to EMI and all the good suggestions above, how about you put it‌ in Kraken? … fully or partially.

In Kraken you can hold USD, not USDC… USD.‍ Or other fiat currencies, benefiting 4.75% APY on it, for which capital gains are not⁠ taxed in Estonia.

You can open a corporate account for your Estonian entity.

Might be⁤ a good interim solution until you fix the EMI situation.

 

[ayousupply]

I want to buy a digital asset with the money. But yes it is quite⁢ a good idea when I will have money again to put it somewhere to gain︀ APY. On Nexo I can get 12% APY on USDT so maybe I split between︁ them. Will never put all the money in 1 account again, no matter bank emi︂ or exchange

 

[Clank]

I wouldn't trust nexo, all of the platforms⁣ with the same business model have already gone bankrupt.

 

[ayousupply]

Yeah true, i have money now with them,‍ but because they have credit card you can use it as credit card and debit⁠ card which is quite nice.
But certainly not park a big amount of money in⁤ there

 

[ayousupply]

Guys the impossible happened. I got finally the money from my business account in my‌ 3s Money Club account.

So on Monday I will transfer the money to buy the‍ asset. Let´s see how 3s Money is. They have the docs already so I hope⁠ it will be smooth but I highly doubt it

 

[bandanna]

Agree big time here!

I prefer 3.85% on‍ Wise (which they withhold tax 30% on so it’s just 3% ish) or 4.75% on⁠ kraken than 12% on Nexo, especially using USDT.

I opted out of Nexo a while⁤ back, and minimized my USDT holdings to none unless there a necessity.
