and it can take a long time to recover those costs
Exactly. To get break-even costs for personal account opening takes around 1,5 years. So they for sure don't want to close the accounts when they don't have to.

Thanks for your reply.I have both personal and corporate
YesThanks for your reply.

Hello P3p386,Awful service. I've been waiting more than a month for level 3 verification (personal account). I supposedly have level 2 (1000 Eur a month) verification, but I can't send any money. I have 1000 Euro locked and their support just can't seem to help. Do not recommend.
It's probably your case was not acceptable by regulations. What is your activity? In such cases as HK companies and similar I always advise to speak with lawyers before going to banks. @Gediminas is quite good advising opening account. You can ask him!After wasting 7+ weeks back and forth with their compliance and on-boarding customer service, just trying to open a basic business account for a newly formed HK company (no negative history of any sort), they have come back and said the application doesnt meet their "eligibility criterion" and they will be keep the 450 EUR application fee.
Their tagline of "banks complicate things, we don't" must be a joke, their application is worse than any bank I've had to deal with before and in the end, was pointless and got nowhere.
Waste of time, waste of money, either an outright scam or just a terrible company. Useless either way.

Also interested on this, since it didn't get replyHi,
anybody knows if Bankera accepts business accounts for US LLC with sole member being a non US resident? Company deals with software apps.
Thanks
Hi there!
For the purpose of getting an Iban account where I can withdraw crypto earnings and send them to brokers like Interactive Brokers or DeGiro - and maybe the other way around too-, does it make sense to open a a personal account with Bankera, or is rather preferable to open an account at Spectrocoin?
It seems to me that using Spectrocoin instead of bankera I would get same benefits, but will avoid one step, the one of withdrawing from crypto exchange to bank.
Thank you
I am writing this post in the name of unbiased public interest, because I see "some strange activity" by few people in this topic.
1. In general, quite a few people are complaining about "random practices" of Bankera closing accounts left-and-right with and without reason. Read up the previous pages of the topic, also read reviews on TrustPilot too (Bankera is rated "Great" with 4.1 / 5 on Trustpilot)
2. The user @Gediminas (who very actively replies to "unfortunate customers" and always highlights what could have went wrong) - by his own words in a previous post - is indirectly related or at least - acquianted - with the team of Bankera. So, his opinions should not be taken for unbiased ones.
