That's what I was saying and nobody was listening .. A bank in Switzerland told me they can't send SEPA to Gibraltar anymore .. So maybe transfers are going through now, but that won't last .. And yes they already transitioned to 1k per year .. I'm still waiting for all these new features they...

I have GPB, EUR and USD with wise .. Obviously USD is the most useful and the one I use most to receive from time to time, I never send from it (Unless it's to my own bank account). And for years, if I'm not sending that money to my main bank directly, I convert it to EUR .. So 99% of the time I...

I swear to god if this is what they call "new features" to justify the $1k fees I'm withdrawing everything and cancelling my account on the spot lol. Payoneer offers a better service ACH wise, at least you can deposit from different companies not just your personal accounts. I was thinking...

New how? Is it different from their usual Bridge ventures ACH where you can only send from your own accounts to Xapo?

This reminds me of the Louis CK bit, "you didn't pay for the movie, you paid for the ticket" lol

I haven't added any money to the account for a while now, I'm basically spending whatever I have there. When the card expires I won't be renewing probably.

There is a "coming soon" Union pay card, global, same description as the visa card, but the fees are way lower (lower limits though). To be honest, I like volet for what it is, send bitcoin, load it in your card and spend. Card is unreliable though, their issuer is viacarte.com, sometimes you...

Xapo offers both plastic and virtual for many non EEA countries and exactly what you described. Thing is they are going to $1k per year fees soon. They don't offer SWIFT payments, just SEPA / ACH basically, but even then some banks in Europe will say they don't send SEPA to Gibraltar. You...

I don't think anything BUT the dollar is allowed to be a reserve currency. And to be honest I don't know what would the plan be. What I know is when interest rates start coming down, and we are in a similar situation to a couple of years ago when treasury auctions start looking a bit sus...

I think your bank is just saying they need to make more money out of you, stop perusing and buy something kind of deal. I'm pretty sure that time is coming very soon, looking at banks like xapo that is backed by money from endeavor, that blatantly convert EUR and GPB to USD immediately, offer...

I don't think that's the case anymore, the new card they introduced a few months back (their only option) seems to be EEA only. Check Revolut or Xapo.

If UBS goes "bankrupt" you will have more serious problems to worry about, like idk, checking if you have enough food in your bunker or smth.

:p

They used to be ok when they were moneybookers, when they changed to Skrill which is a cool snappy name, I thought, maybe something that can compete with paypal (which is what you should compare it to not an EMI) .. Here is my review in 2021, go to some black hat forum that sells crypto or...

Sounds good, I'll open an account there and see what's up ..
