Avoid this company at all costs.
According to Times of Malta (June 24, 2024): - The firm was at the center of a large-scale investigation into an alleged Russian-Eurasian criminal network. - Customers of Blackcatcard, speaking anonymously, reported being unable to withdraw funds since the investigation began. - Police conducted searches of the financial entity as part of an international investigation into alleged money laundering. Unfortunately, I wired €1,000 to my Blackcatcard account at the beginning of December 2024 without first researching the company online. The funds were not credited to my account, nor were they returned to my original bank account. From my sending bank's perspective, the payment was processed successfully. However, Blackcatcard appears to have retained the money. Despite their claims of issues with SEPA changes—a story they've repeatedly used with customers since the start of the year—the funds were not refunded, as would be expected if such issues were legitimate. I plan to file complaints with the police and the Maltese Financial Arbiter financialarbiter com mt and strongly recommend others do the same if you have also been defrauded by this company.
