I am afraid that I will end up the same as with Skrill, It was fine and great, luckily, since I also read all the negative reviews, with deep mistrust I almost immediately transferred to my European Bank Account all available funds every time I received them.
The relation was all going along well until I got an email with the following wording:
"Unfortunately, weĆ¢ve had to place restrictions on your Skrill account.
Hopefully, this will just be a temporary measure. To help us get the restrictions lifted, please could you provide us with a few details:
- What are you mainly using your Skrill account for?
- What is your relationship with the recipients of the payments you make with Skrill?
- What do you mainly receive money for?
To send us the information, please reply to this email.
Please be advised that if we do not receive any update from you within 48 hours, your case will be closed.
We look forward to hearing from you soon."
At the time I only had 15euro in the account (very lucky)
I answered al questions properly and truthfully and got a reply a day later that my account was closed, additionally they will withdraw from my bank 150Euros to cover administrative expenses.
(I was so upset that deleted the mail without saving). Of course, immediately electronically, entered my bank to make sure no monies were withdrawn and were not. My Bank doesn't not allow any transaction without my ID's certificate and respective pins.
Neteller seem to be worse still, to confirm account supposedly a small token deposit made by them is to be confirmed thus verifying the existence of your account. So far nothing happened to that effect and the possibility of doing so disappeared.
Next option is to deposit monies either by Credit cards, bitcoin or bank transfer.
After all that you will have to go through the whole process of verifying ID's, Addresses and so on.
Who is to guarantee the successful acceptance of all documentation and eventual business relation with these people hiding in Cyberspace.? Scary very scary...
I did get a token amount in my bank to verify my account, and indeed verified but still they require another deposit. So it seems to be like as if they are fishing, giving you crumbs until enough money comes in to apply and or close your account.
By the way, just read somewhere the the parent Company is the same as Skrill. Closing the account and no harm done.
