Hi there - we're very glad to hear that, thanks!
Scammers
all log shhsidbdneeu
I have been using the app for 2 years and everything have been great but a month ago they closed my account without explanation and took my €100. The support team is a bunch of morons who don't give any proper information after asking many verification questions. They promised to send the leftover money back to me. But they never sent it back. It seems they badly need my €100 and they are doing every possible way to not give the money back. It is shame how they treat their loyal customers. Stay away from these scammers.

Nonexistent support
Azvagif
Had multiple issues with international transfers recently. The support takes on average 30 hours (yes, 30) to respond. After waiting for 3 days with no response to the latest claim with all the documented transaction info, I’ve decided to close my account once the issue is resolved. It’s ok while it works but when it doesn’t - it’s like shouting into the void. Keep your beer money elsewhere

Account termination
vwector
They have terminated my account with no explanation. It has been already more than a 3 weeks since they have blocked it. They promise the explanation on the next day of the termination, however, this didn’t happen. The support just a bunch of idiots, who don’t know anything about what is happening. It would be wise move of management to share with the support some more information about clients activity. The worst financial service ever.
To get our app in tip-top shape, we’ve been busy making 4 bug fixes and improvements.
