Blackcatcard migration - difficulties with incoming/outgoing SEPA transfers

[Forester]

Crypto service is working, I successfully withdrew my balance

Congrats!

Do you withdraw to blackcatcard's balance? Are you able to transfer funds away from backcatcard?
I sent test transfer on Friday, money not returned, but to balance didn't come as well

Fiat to crypto using their service, then successfully sent to external wallet.
Under €10k so no big deal. Never keep much more than that on any bank!

Words of Wisdom, right here!

Transfers still don't work. On feb 19 payment I received, but on feb 22 transfer was canceled.

What they say:

De-banked like Advcash.

Yikes! I'm so sorry about this. This is horrible! No wonder you like Bitcoin so much. Nobody can "trap" it

Why not more?

Sounds like i will move to crypto world soon banks and EMIs are really scary these days

 

[JohnnyDoe]

Why not more?

That’s what I’m comfortable to lose and I don’t have any reason to keep a higher balance. Whenever I need to send a bigger payment, I convert from crypto and immediately send fiat out of the bank.

 

[expatasia]

I agree 100%….more than 50% of these EMI cowboys fail at some point and mostly with a bang. Keep your balance low and swift into crypto or real money = GOLD

 

[JohnnyDoe]

Thank you to the OP for informing of the situation and to OCT to exist!

At last they are busted. Bastards stole money from a colleague of mine and deserve what they got.

Blackcat is Papaya, also Gekkard. A quick internet search will tell you all you need to know about Maltese banks.

Nemea Bank
Pilatus Bank
Satabank
The Qatar-owned bank Banif, changed their name to BNF when people started asking too many questions.

Re. Blackcat, this is interesting:

Oh look!

Top-up your Blackcatcard account using a Top-up code. Buy a card with a Top-up code of any denomination - 10, 20, 50, 100 or 500 EUR. Just enter the Top-up code in the mobile application and replenish your Blackcatcard, wherever you are*.


Top-up can be purchased here: Карта отделений

I love KYB and due diligence. You learn so many things!

we all know that Malta belongs to the ‘Ndrangheta. So what? I just need a decent bank for using fiat converted from crypto.

So open a Post Office Bank account.

It's run by Lombard Bank, but at least there are always plenty of witnesses in the P.O.

Don't you help people to convert their fiat to crypto ?

Sure, but that’s done at corporate level.

So do you guys reckon it's safe to use? I want to deposit weekly 5k euro into BlackCatCard and convert to crypto. But after this I am a bit more skeptical to use them. What might be a better alternative?
