Was using for gambling all was going okay then I was waiting for £100 and before I got it they put my account for review and are withholding my funds, to add injury to insult rather than helping me they’re referring me to the small print in the t&c that says they can take your money no questions asked. Be aware !!

Hi! Thank you for your review! We are glad to hear that you have enjoyed our services!
Got major issues with there system
They are a good bank if you want to use PayPal or get wages, but as soon as you try to transfer money in, they hold it,
No matter the amount, I have emailed proof of the payment and reasonings etc, but they don’t release what should be an instant transfer. It feels like they want to hold onto your money. Don’t boast on your website about instant transfers if you don’t do that,
No fca approved bank takes 2-3 working days to approve an instant transfer of £35.
If you call they answer and immediately hang up - feels like a bit of a scam

Please be informed that the amount was sent to your bank account on 04-07-2023. In case the funds were not received, please contact your bank for further information, as the payment processor confirmed that the withdrawal was successful on our side.
Your charges are astronomical
Your charges are astronomical.
From trying to withdraw R1250, I was only able to withdraw R1000, because of your charges.
Then to top it all off, when the money came into my account, I only received R875
Beyond ridiculous!!!!
