    Zebec: New Instant Crypto VISA/MasterCard Launched?

    Tried it too. They are using API of Digital Wallet to issue prepaid cards. Zebec just generates a "token", which you then use to provision the actual card at the above website. So once you top-up the card, your money are no longer managed/administered by Zebec. Onbe.com is behind this...

    European International Insurance company for Expat, where ?

    I've used Cygna. Well, never used, but paid for it for several years. Their premiums kept growing and I decided to ditch them for Now-Health.

    Oh, I see.. never heard of that one. The one I mentioned was the first and established since a while ago. I haven't had a chance to use any of them.

    Please convince me. Real advantages of owning a corporation.

    do you speak Spanish or it's enough to get by with English only?

    BVI or Europe? Where makes most sense?

    So I have Wise account for USA LLC, but additional accounts are in GBP and EUR. Would I need to report balances on those accounts then?

    BVI or Europe? Where makes most sense?

    Based on new regulations you also need to report all bank accounts holding over $10k. But all US-sourced income should be taxable? US LLC is only good if you don't have USA customers.

    Rietumu - for all victims of fraudulent account closure and theft of funds

    Martin, Mostly agree. However, there are still ways in which banks could cause invested into bonds/equities money to be lost (pooled accounts, for instance). To update everyone on Rietumu's saga. We managed to have our account unfreezed and we got all our money (more than 100,000EUR covered...

    Rietumu - for all victims of fraudulent account closure and theft of funds

    ak2000 - let's co-operate. class actions doesn't seem to be a vastly popular (or achievable) thing in Europe, but if we hire the same lawyers to serve Rietumu with similar lawsuits, we can do more damage and save on lawyer fees. You mentioned you contacted some law firms in Riga. Have you made...

    Rietumu - for all victims of fraudulent account closure and theft of funds

    If you incorporate as UK Ltd (or even an LLP with resident member) - I am sure it won't be hard to open retail bank accounts. That would automatically make you tax resident, though. The beauty of LLP set up is that it's a pass-thru vehicle. It's taxed where owners/members are taxed. I see no...

    Rietumu - for all victims of fraudulent account closure and theft of funds

    Martin, Russian money flowing into the UK are for storage, preservation and wealth management. If you run an active business, involving Russia, UK banks won't take you on board. I spoke to several UK banks and some US banks - they don't want to take any clients whose business has _any_...

    EMI with Dedicated UK IBAN ?

    ePayments is terrible and work with Rietumu (which everyone expects to be going bust very soon). To look more legitimate, ePayments publish spoofed revenue numbers (extra ",000") and photos supposedly showing their company offices with a lot of staff - but they are "stock photos" =) They only...

    Rietumu - for all victims of fraudulent account closure and theft of funds

    I have relatives in Latvia and visit it often; Moreover, our business required RUB accounts - for that a choice in Europe is limited to Latvia, Cyprus and perhaps a few other countries, which aren't any better than Latvia. This is an exaggeration and not true. In the UK we can't open account...
