More and more we hear lots of stories of various online banks freezing accounts, blocking bank accounts, ignoring customer emails, and live chats are useless as well. And there is no ceiling on how long you will be waiting.
For example, in the last case, where our barristers helped our customer to open a Court case against Revolut (one of the leading UK online banks), clearly shows that a person was waiting for 10 months for the bank to finish their so-called “account review”. Only after the case was open – Revolut returned the money immediately.
Our barristers have helped already several customers to recover their balances from the following online banks: Revolut, Monese, Starling Bank.
Now we have 3 open cases against Starling Bank, and we will be informing you how Starling Bank freezes accounts and doesn’t answer to the requests of their customers for months.
On the top side, you see a screenshot of 1 Court Case against Starling Bank (one out of many Court cases).
Our customer, and our barristers are waiting for the Defence letter from the lawyer Mrs Emily in this case, that will be published here for your inspection and information.

I lost £2,200 to a summer who used revolut account and defrauded me. This person acted as AirBnb agent who claimed due to the lockfown he’s renting out his property in Clapham which I was interested. He asked me to pay the amount before the agent can meet me at the address given to hand over the key to the property. He ceased communication with me after the amount paid. I’m now sharing bed with a friend since March till. I contacted my bank they’re yet to receive a feedback from revolut. Please I need help get my money back as life is taking a toll on me.
Thank you.

Good morning Dorothy, please go to https://www.actionfraud.police.uk/ and open a case against a scammer who defrauded you. We don’t deal with cases like these – this is a 100% police-related case. Best wishes, TIG team
Revolut account is “being reviewed” – getting nowhere. They have threatened to block me on their Facebook page – but I can only contact them through trust and their app. All replies are similar but tweeked slightly “we are still reviewing” – most time they are not responding. A lot of money I cannot access. I’m a Revolut client over 2 years – I sent them tax returns, bank statements etc and still no resolution. Mortgage due next week which I told them but they don’t care
Good afternoon Richard,
We are not alone – this is a normal business practice for Revolut. This is their business.
Sending documents usually doesn’t help – after receiving them Revolut starts ignoring the restricted user.
We have found that the most effective way is to take Revolut to the Court. It does take some time – but we haven’t had a single case when the monies haven’t been returned.
You can try taking Revolut to the Court yourself, or we and our barristers can help you with it.
If you do need our help, please send us an email to contact@thisisgambling.com
Best wishes,

I’m in a similar situation with Starling bank. I received a remittance from the company delivery our goods abroad into my starling bank business account. They flagged the transaction and asked me to produce a list of documents in order to verify.
Ever since then, their response has been we are reviewing. They have no idea when the review will be completed. I’m a new startup and this is already affecting me as I can no longer run ads.
Please help.
Good morning Daniel,
Yes, Starling is also known for blocking accounts and taking funds of their users. This is their scheme of how they make the money.
Please contact us via email.
Best wishes, the TIG team

Monese blocked my account for no reason. I don’t answer emails, on the phone or on Facebook. These mobsters must also pay damages to customers. I am a seller and I have orders to ship. Because of them, my business is also suffering. I am wasting time , money and clients. I am becoming unserious because of Monese is ,,mafia”.
