What is going on with First Choice?

[best999]

they answered again on same question:


Trust you are well.

Further to our email below please note that the Liquidator is unable to make a few payments and will send one final payment to you. You will be provided with payment advice, which shall include the details of your claim, that you would be able to provide to your bank.

Please note that all of the payments are being made in US$ and therefore, there is no option to receive the funds in Euros.

Kindly advise if you have any further questions.

Thanks & best regards
Liquidation Team

at least there is hope that banks will not reject transfers...

That is strange that they answered to your question about providing documents, I have sent them the same question at the end of August, but never received any answer back.

I also have a very very big amount of money to receive.
Today I received a call from my bank asking me if I expect for a big amount of money, as they said they have received a wire transfer to my account, said yes, and they said that they would need justifying documents for the transfer.
So today I emailed back to the liquidator, asking him for justifying documents for the transfer, I received am autoresponder email saying that on 10 of September they are under National Holiday and will be back on office on 11 September. No other reply since then.
My bank informed me that they will reject the transfer if they don't receive any justifying documents by thursday next week.

Telling they will send documents and will they do it are 2 different things.(i think they meant only on putting the description within transfer, not on real documents) The only thing we could do/send are mails, screenshots from fcp and link to the website of choicebank in liquidation. At least the bank called you and gave you the chance, they could rejecting it without notice since it is very questionable transfer and not previously announced

 

[best999]

Yes, you are right.
In the end the liquidator answered to my email, but only after I emailed to the cblliquidator@gmail.com email, previously I emailed to cblliquidator.claims@gmail.com and got no answer.
He replied back saying the same, that will send me a payment advice notification, which relates to my claim against Choice Bank Ltd.

Provide any document you have to the bank including a copy of the payment schedule and wire forms on the liquidator's website, statement of your fcp card if you have one, qnd explain what happened exactly. At this point you can no longer hide that money, but if you can manage to receive it in your bank account , with the available documents, which should be easy enough since this is a well documented event by the media outlets. So send everything you have and tell the whole story.

i received first mail ,they say will trasnfer money and i have to complete that claim,,they again send me a mail on 2 september ,say is a storm and will late with payment,and to not be worry they will send the money in a short time in order how they receives the mails..but i send again the claim and the pic with prove from first choice..honestly,didnt expect i will get money back...good luck guys,i recommend to send again them the claim completed and the pic with prove from firstchoice..maybe everyday is better if you insist to them

 

[avantgart]

Let me know if and what he send you...nessma is right about hiding...but the fear is for receiving, since many banks in many states are old fashion and do not requgnize anything but documents with stamps and signatures...

 

[danyelles]

Hi I have a question for ASSS45 ,can you please say the name of the bank where you received money in Romania ,if you can give details what it says on your transfer paper ,where is sent from which country and what represents this amount? I asked my bank in ROMANIA Alpha bank and says it does not accept transfers from Belize ,for that please if you can give me these details

 

[soulcams]

Hi guys,im romanian.Im made account to tell you,i received the money...had 6200$ and they give me 5600$ ,im super happy,i hope all of you take the money back

Congrats! May I ask if you had a personal account or a business account with FCP? Thank you

 

[candy_warxol]

So, do they send a notification to email before making payment? So if there are empty in my email I shouldnt wait for my payment...

 

[asss45]

personal account...revolut card i received the money..

 

[Nata_]

I think Revolut doesn’t ask for papers when is about receiving any amount of money. But I asked the liquidator in the past (when was that problem with ‘banned’countries ) if I can send my Revolut account to them (living in Romania) to receive the money, and they said the bank has to be in my country, physical..

 

[avantgart]

I believe he cannot make us receiving it in our country only, because some country wont accept this transfers. The problem with virtual accounts except they also ask for documents, is many of them can give you "joined" name for swift/iban transfer only not the personal one on your own name as the regular bank does. This said to me support from epayservice.

guys who have just recieved money, how does it appear on yr acct? what is the description , designation of the transfer?
this is what my bank asked

 

[Agnesss]

I am from Romania and my usd account I made with Banca Romaneasca. I called them to ask abt the money transfer , considering I have to get around 49k (in total), and they said they dont need papers as long as in the transfer details they write a justification as what it represents.

the question is if the write sufficient notification. my friend got paid in February. They wrote nothing. but she was ok since she had only 1k. I m trying to figure out what they write as justification to show my bank

 

[avantgart]

@Agnesss you had very luck with your bank! If someone have a sum below 15 or 10k...you would even need no explanation...problem is with those with bigger sums...

 

[Nessma]

They use an US intermediary bank, and the sender name is usually the appointed liquidator. So it won't show up coming from Belize.
In Europe any transfer above 10k requires justifications, in other parts of the world its a bit more relaxed but you still have to come up with proper reasoning for the transfer.

btw i think every country uses intermediary bank for transfers not in local currency. my bank uses us interm bank for usd and german bank for euro

I still havent received any sum of my money, but good to hear a few people started receiving it! Does everyone need to submit all First Choice Pay documents and Objection forms all over again, or only the new Wire Transfer form?

 

[AnnoyedPerson]

I have just been asked for my payment Instructions again even though my payment details have not changed and were submitted in March 2020. I suggest anyone sitting waiting like I was just to fill in the payment instructions and send it to cblliquidator.claims@gmail.com

 

[Dill]

i resent only wire transfer details too

 

[best999]

Today my local bank returned back the transfer
I sent to my local bank the links for schedule of actions, claim, wire transfer form on the liquidator website, also I sent them the claim and wire transfer form completed with my own details, the ones sent back to the liquidator in the past. Also I sent them Loads from my FirstChoicePay account, where it shows who I got the money from; Account statements, showing my running balance; screenshots from my FirstChoicePay account showing my personal details and my last balance there.
I explained to the bank the whole situation. I also got a Payment advice document from the Liquidator which I also sent, which shows that the money from the wire transfer received from the paying agent to my bank, are connected to the liquidation of Choice Bank.
None of these were enough to accept the transfer, the bank still asked for proof of funds.
Now I will contact the liquidator to tell him what happened.
