Just like with the people below me
Just like with the people below me, Blackcatcard has requested additional information regarding a transaction and my funds are now stuck. Please take a look, else I will have to escalate this further. The In-App Support only gives Copy Paste answers.
Dear Support Team, what do you mean with providing the information through Trustpilots secure form? How do I do that?

Dear Sandis Muncs,
We are sorry for the inconvenience. Unfortunately, AML checks are a legal requirement, and the process is carried out according to protocols that we can't speed up.
AML checks usually takes from 1 to 14 days. But, the AML checks take longer time in some cases.

Terrible support
Fast registration, no comments here.
Support is terrible.
A few days ago I received a crypto transfer, confirmed it and it’s still on hold “processing”.
When I asked support about the timings, how can we speed up the process or why it’s taking so much time (never had such an issue before)
They give 0 information and copy pasting previous answers.
Read a few comments here and already scared that I’ll be waiting for the issue to be resolved much much more time :(
Update in 5 days.
They requested my info - nothing happened.
Support in the app still gives me copy paste answers and my money is still processing and I cannot access it!!!!!!!

Domency fee.
Domency fee.. bcc says in theyr webpage, that they will inform when your acc is inactive. So they not iformed me, now bcc asking 330eur. Balance always was 0, not -330. So bank just hides these fees. Interesting that, they say you no need to pay now, but later if you create acc, domency fee will be transfered. Ok no one going to create acc in that place ever. But i guess later they will try anyway to get that amoun in court, am i right?

Upd. Dear user, dormancy fee occurs if a client has a Blackcatcard account, but it’s been inactive for over 6 months. We do our best to provide the best pricing to our clients, and you know the maintenance of your account is free for a client. However, when an account is inactive, its maintenance costs us money, which is unsustainable for us in the long run. If you don’t use your account — there is always an option to close it. In this situation, we don’t force you to pay a dormancy fee.
You can find more about dormancy fee here:

Best regards,
Blackcatcard team
Dear user, we believe, that you are writing about the dormancy fee that occurs on accounts, that had no single transaction in 6 months. The dormancy fee is 15 euros per month of inactivity. The dormancy fee is presented in the Blackcatcard app in the 'My Tariff' section, as well as in the price list on our website (https://blackcatcard.com/pricing/). Please provide us with your personal information through a secure Trustpilot form, so that we can look into your case.

Racist Approach in Verifications
My verification was rejected automatically even though I provided all the necessary documents (my Government issued ID, address registration etc. and they are all valid, I successfully opened an account with their close competitors such as Zen.com) My application wasn't even reviewed by a human which makes it obvious it is about my nationality. If you don't accept clients from specific countries, you should write it on your website and don't waste people's time. This approach is highly unprofessional and disappointing.
Edit with regards to the reply : I am fully aware of the regulations you have to follow as a financial institution, it is the standard for most banks and EMIs. You only asked for my ID card and my proof of address, I provided my Government issued ID card and a valid Proof of Address and you rejected me. How is that not about my nationality?

Account creation happened quickly, and customer service was responsive right away. I'm astonished that even in the app, the agents respond right away.
I sent money via Revolut, and it arrived at my black cat IBAN number in 45 minutes.
Wonderfully, there are no fees at all.
Looking forward to receiving the card.
I've been using my card since I got it, and the rates are excellent. I'm satisfied with the card
Time will tell, and I'll monitor how everything turns out.
