Total scammers will steal your money

AVOID this company Just to give you an update I have been trying to contact Pockit for the last 3 months after they closed my account for no reason whatsoever after 4 years and although they have asked for and been given my details to transfer the balance of £555 back to my bank they have yet to do so 3 times they have told me it will be processed within 10 days and 3 months later still no money They reply to 1 in every 15 emails I send and all with the same excuse that it is being processed Trading standards are now involved and also the financial ombudsman Thankfully after contacting the Martin Lewis money programme they are showing an interest in outing this fraudulent company Check out their reviews on her and other google sites Please draw your money out whilst you still can their annual accounts haven’t been submitted they are obviously in trouble You have been warned Reviewed on: 2nd March 2021

I’ve emailed, called and tried love chat you still haven’t responded to me. I closed this account come to find out they didn’t close it or reopened it! Someone sent money to that account n the bank is trying to retrieve the money but you stupid dimwits won’t respond. I’ve even sent a bloody letter and u fools won’t even respond! I’ve even dm them on instagram! How the hell is your funky looking ass open ? Yall should be shut down by now! I really believe this company is using drug or trafficking money. People I know, online, instagram and reviews don’t rate you! Everything negative. So how u baboons still open ? Run me back my fucking money ! Reviewed on: 13th February 2021

Recepient didnt recieve it yet and money has been deducted from pockit account. And no correspondence on my problem . Its like a joke now Reviewed on: 11th January 2021

VERY BAD EXPERIENCE

I opened an account in this company and I have given all the documents that they will ask me. I have deposited 249 pounds but they will immediately block my account and keep my money I work so hard to get my money and I get robbed by a shitty company. Reviewed on: 10th January 2021

I have Pockit account for quiet a while. I wanted to transfer all my money from pockit to my other bank account. And its been more than bloody 12 hours i havent recieved the money , when its already gone from my pockit account. Bad experience Reviewed on: 10th January 2021

Unprofessional and non- contactable

1
I have spoken to their customer service people in the past but, in these Covid times, their help lines are unmanned. My emails also go unanswered. Best to withdraw every penny before they ‘review’ (freeze and prevent access to) your account. I can’t even get them to close my account - but at least they can no longer charge me for an account that I can’t use. And if they finally contact me I shall go straight to the FSA.

Money goes missing a lot and customer services is a joke and nobody has a clue how to help customers in an efficient manner

1
They have no customer support after 6pm, live chat is the best way to not get ignored but if it gets to 6pm they tell you a bunch of rubbish before ending the chat blaming an automatic shutdown of the system. Emailing them can take a month to get a reply if they bother too that is. Pockit have stolen my money nearly £40 my account shows it go in but then pockit reckon its been processing and can take 10 days but it doesn't, its normally there the next day. Trustpilot is flooded with fake 5star reviews on pockit its a extremely worrying Reviewed on: 5th December 2020
