Hi Steve, thank you for your replies. Card2card transfer can be an option. On the other hand, I do not really trust blackcatcard any more. But, they provide a debit card with a vanity name on it. I think I will try a small card2card transfer after 5 month of inactivity. If that fails, I can...

Yes, it is six month. But I emptied my account, when the problems with SEPA transfers started. So I cannot fund my account and I cannot use my card because I have a zero balance. Does the cashback work for you? I have never received any.

I hope they don't charge the Dormancy fee while SEPA transfers don't work and the account is almost unusable.

Hi there, I intend to open an account with HSBC Jersey and invest a larger part of my liquid assets there. In the EU, there is EU Directive 655/2014 which allows the blocking and seizure of accounts within the EU under a simplified procedure. Does anyone know if this will also apply in Jersey...

For me, SEPA transfers to HSBC UK have always been free. Are you sure you're not confusing HSBC UK with HSBC Expat (Jersey)?

For me the website and mobile app are still working.

I guess all of them. Even if you go to a branch, you have to scan a QR code with your phone and submit the application online. After you have completed the online application, you hand over the necessary documents to the bank employee and do the identification in person.

Bangladesh? Last time I checked, there was a ban on cryptocurrencies in Bangladesh. Anyone who owned even one Satoshi was accused of money laundering. Has that changed?

What is the 6000 km rule about?

Does anyone know, when they credit cashback for card purchases? The cashback for my debit card purchases last month are still missing. I hope the interest will be paid more reliably.

What about your passport? Do you have a passport from the country, that asks for the 150K? Some countries can revoke your passport if you don't pay the tax. (I'm curious: is the 150K an exit tax?)

You could open an account with an EMI that is crypto friendly and accepts NZ residents. zen.com comes to my mind. Maybe also blackcatcard. They have a crypto exchange included.

AFAIK you cannot revoke your only passport and become stateless. You first have to get a new citizenship.

Have you tried it? Is it trustworthy?

Can you legally renounce your citizenship? I think, if you acquire a Caribbean passport and renounce your original passport and citizenship, the Caribbean country is not allowed to revoke that CBI citizenship.
