I don't see anything about them being a licensed bank -- they talk about using a bank in Tazania and Cyprus. Thier corporate accounts require lots of paperwork -- what's the advantage?

of course they are licensed, check central bank's web site and do due dilligence
That's nice to know -- still requires a tremendous about of paperwork for a corporation to open an account -- you might as well use a BIG BANK that has been around for 100 years to jump through these hoops.
Well, out of hundreds of customers with accounts at FBME you are the first one to ever complain about the bank -- I assume you used the account for something illegal.
Why don't you explain what really happened with your account.
1 of 100?!!
I believe you must be somehow earning a salary from the FBME bank to be able to say such a wrong thing.
Anyhow please read this:
How can you explain that a bank is accusing its own customers of money laundering when MOKAS (Anti-Money Laundering Unit in Cyprus - Government linked) is saying this is pure speculation?
Whether there is ML or not where should the bank stand in this situation? I believe in the same side as MOKAS, you not???
No, the bank does not pay us a penny, although they do pay some introducers some sort of fees. Your experience is extremely isolated, even searching Google there are no other cases of this happening. However as the above poster stated your "friend" should just fly to Cyprus and they will resolve the issue in person.
LightBlue, I think it would be time to stop ranting about FBME on all the threads about it. You said your side of the story on your thread, it was noted and people will take that into account.
You are a bit too fired up about this "experience that happened to a friend".
Your friend can always try to go to Cyprus and sort the matter out if there is absolutely nothing illegal in the middle.
By the way, what was the amount that was seized by the bank?
