Any review on Capital Security Bank Limited?

[rey skywalker]

This Cook Island bank been around forever. They seem transparent with published financials and showing of management. Compare that to banks like EPB and its a much more transparent bank.

You can trust them they are a real legit bank that I remember from back in the day.

i had an account with csb , terrible experience i wired in funds, but to wire out was impossible, be aware
i wrote to financial commission , not a single answer

Any way i start to understand who is try selling what , all our experts i am sure they are introducer of this bank.
The cook island is lost somewhere ,is not for sure a good and stable jurisdiction
Do not expect too much from them

Sent them 2019 back in the days my passport and never heard back from them. Wanted to use them for a Foundation and asked for pre approval. They confirmed and wanted me to sent my passport. the answer from @Taylor well always the same. new registered user with one message realted to a service provider or bank. big red flag for this bank!

Been waiting for 11 months for feed back. Not even a rejection letter!!!

Awesome, do you allow for accounts to be opened for corps or just personal accounts? specifically say a New Mexico LLC operating as a holding company. Account would just be used to store some savings.. might also be interested in some of your precious metals services.

This is a fairly common complaint I've heard about CSB, which is unfortunate given the bank's otherwise good reputation. You simply stop responding or take months to reply. I saw an example a few months ago where you responded to a nearly six months old email out of nowhere. The person had long since moved on and wasn't interested anymore. If you aren't already, I'd suggest looking into using some form of CRM software that makes it easy to track and follow up on tickets/emails, and for supervisors to see whether tickets are being replied to.

Looks like they have changed strategy, maybe @Admin should move this into the mentor group gold!

it is definitely an advertising thread and they are not even mentor group or have advertising here any longer!
