cheap offshore debit card (Usa and Euro)

58

By marklatson

Hello!! I want to share my experience with debit/credit card sites...Two months ago I was looking for a new offshore debit card for withdrawing cash from my Paypal account, because I'm an Ebay seller...So I visited many offshore consulting web sites: I was scammed 3 times!!! (keep clear of capitalgategroup.com, globalcard-services.com and first oceanic bank !!!! Never pay unknown people by western union, e-gold or similar programs!!! I lost over 700$ !!!! :( They are only SCAMMERS!!!!)

When I became desperate to retrieve my money, I found a web site (www.migliorprivacy.com :I think they are italian because they speak only english or italian) that sells only debit cards...Initially I was suspicious but they have low prices and accept only secure payments (Paypal, moneybooker and wire transfer): so I ordered a card from them (an Usa atm debit card)...

What's happened? Only 9 days after my payment I received my new debit card!!! :)

It works very fine with Paypal and at ATMs, low fees and good assistance (also by phone) and more other good services...What I Think? GREAT, GREAT GREAT!!!!! :D

What is the morale? When you are looking for something don't stop in a web site only because it looks good or because you find the advertising on google...If it looks too good to be true, probably is a big big scam!!!! :) My advice so is: before you pay a service, you should take a look if someone has tried it and what he says about...

The website he references where they spoke only Italian and English is now full of links for related searches - it doesn't seem to be a company at all.

First off. Having an offshore account is not TAX EVASION.

So the red state tea bagger doesn't have a clue what he/she is talking about. You have heard about international commerce? Probably not- unless you look at the made in any country BUT the USA labels when shoopping at Walmart.

There are US citizens that live overseas permanently and require offshore accounts to manage their daily financial requirements. These are retirees and employees of multinational corporations.

The poster was talking about conducting transactions in other currencies to lower the transaction costs US banks charge for foreign currency transactions.

HSBC, Citibank, Everbank are three right off the top of my head that offer Expatriate financial services. Meaning they provide FDIC insured deposit accounts that can be based held in the US in foreign currencies.

They are geared for small businesses trying to hedge against currency fluctuations in international commerce transactions.
