Can we trust tide.co for online banking?

you think it would be possible as a non UK resident but with Swedish passport?

Yes. I am from ex-yu and I got it after answering few simple questions. The only problem you'll have is that you can't change the shipping country but you can just put Sweden in one of the address fields - they will redact UK manually, at least they did in my case.

However please take CFC rules into consideration if you are tax-resident in Sweden. Look into Cypriot non-dom residency if you can afford it.

That being said, I think Tide & TransferWise are a fairly good combo for UK LTDs.

I have applied with my company for a tide account today, will be waiting for them to approve all of it. I also applied for ePayments account today to see what works.

It's a UK company and I'm non-resident and live in a different country.

Yeah sure, they rejected the entire application. Only for UK citizen living in the UK.

Yes and after all this if you pass the compliance, you want to login. BANG it will say, you can only login from within the UK, so you are the smart guy with UK IP and UK Mobile phone! AND BANG it will say again, only for transfers within the UK.

Forget it, if you don't believe me, just go ahead, I will not waste more time on it.

I have used them for a couple of years for a UK business - they dont have the ability to accept foreign transfers - so its only useful for UK to UK transfers.
No issue with using the App when overseas - once you have had it all approved and used in the UK - but you wont be able to do anything if you try and activate it all for the 1st time when offshore VPN "may" work

Let's face it, it is useless for anyone outside of the UK with foreign business.

They are reliable , but as already said useless.
And if you made an error with your IP, your account is blocked.
Too sensitive and limited to bring any interest.

I necromance this thread to bring awareness to Tide.co, they do progressive KYC so at any moment everything suspends even though you have an account. Their support are knowledgable and empathetic more than most, but policy is policy and they are trigger happy.

Policay says nothing even remotely touch crypto, even if you also accept crypto but most clients pay in GBP that's against policy.
