[TurnedToRobot]

You mean this one Fincofex - why would someone need your help to setup the account and get approved?

 

[Nyep]

This must be some kind of joke.

This must be some kind of joke.

why you think so? they look like a bank?

 

[Nyep]

why you think so?

The fees are beyond ridiculous. It's like they're doing a satire on EMIs like Erabanq.

These fees are not crazy at all.
UPaycard charges 10,000 EUR for a dedicated IBAN.
If you want a s**t offshore bank with awful service / no dedicated IBAN than go to Belize, Georgia, etc.

But if you want a real "bank like" experience w/ an offshore structure you will pay for it.

guys, can anyone recommend 1 EMI and 1 real bank for an LLC Delaware business account?

I was not approved in transferwise, the amount is a little high, so I would like something secure

and about real bank, I tried with ICO Services, they told me that banks in Cyprus are no longer accepting to create bank business accounts for LLC Delaware...I would like a safe country with good privacy

thank you

You may open a new thread for that, this is a discussion where people suggest banks and EMI's!

The fees are super crazy for a bunch of Eastern European fraudsters. THE WEBSITE IS RUN BY FRAUDSTERS!!!!!!! IT IS 100% A SCAM BY SCAMMERS. @Admin should ban any new user who is promoting this scam or claiming to use their service as jail awaits anyone who promotes impersonating UK government to rip off clients

The contact number (+44 7537-180501) on their website is a mobile phone number even....lol.

Google the mobile number and you find at least 25 comments on the site below saying they received calls from that number and those Eastern European SCAMMERS!!! BE WARNED!!!!!

"07537180501 "HMRC is filing a lawsuit against you..bla..bla..bla"
This is up on HMRC page with a warning NOT to engage. It's a scam, they seem to be targeting the elderly in particular (I'm 63 cheeky things). My call was a recorded voice, a female and did not speak with an English accent. My advice, put the phone down and get on with your day. "


"Using a computer generated female voice, same message as above "HMRC are launching a lawsuit against you, press 1 to talk to a case officer". Obvious scam, since they had no way of knowing who the 'you' was who had answered the phone. "

"person who had bad command of English called on 07537180501 stating she was from HMRC and that they were preparing to take legal action against me. When asked to repeat her message several times, caller ended call abrubtly. "

There are desperate people who are making desperate decisions so you would be surprised there are many people who do not mind those fees. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

Yes, a fool and his money are easily parted . Especially when the company is a proven eastern european scam being pumped by a new user to the forum....lol.

P.S I would say rather - desperate people always make foolish mistakes.

I haven't even looked it up nor checked their fees, I just pointed out that there are many people who are going for these options in order to execute a few payments, get their money and then disappear. Sometimes the risk pays out, sometimes it doesn't

Electronic Money Institutions (E-Money Institution, EMI) are a new era in banking with a focus on remote services, mobile apps, and streamlines, simple services. The most noteworthy examples are probably Paysera, LeuPay, and N26.

Most of these EMIs are riding on new EU/EEA regulations meant to increase competition in banking, which is why there practically aren’t any from outside this region that offer the same level of services with unique, individual bank accounts (IBAN with SEPA capability for rapid, low-cost EUR transfers within EU/EEA).

Many of these institutions do not hold banking licenses and a few are relying entirely on third-party licensing.

Nonetheless, no guarantees are made for the accuracy or validity of the information presented here.

After reading ALL the topic, I came to the conclusion that there is no EMI without CRS. Disaster....
