After months of being paid into my Pockit account by my company they suddenly froze my account and won’t let me access my money. Won’t reply to my emails and after sending of all the documents to prove the payment including wage slips they still have not released it… avoid this company and before you think this won’t happen to you read reviews on here and trust pilot everyone saying the same can’t all be lying Reviewed on: 19th April 2023

bad bank

very unproffessional bank. they asked me for my selfie and id etc. but still closed my account. they say i fall outside of their risk appetite. this is a lie because ive never gone into debt. my account had always been in debit. these small banks are not very good. thats why they have so many bad reviews.

I am a single mum of two children who is desperate to sort her account due the negative affects this is having to mine and my childrens life's then today POCKIT have told me if you send more than one email they class this as SPAM.. Please avoid yourself this Heartache and stress this bank really doesn't care. I have asked my email be changed this was not done, so now they say my reviews are fake. I can see there's endless people having these problems. I have asked my account either be unlocked or closed and funds immediately be transferred to another account. I have also spoken to the financial Ombudsman and also the FCA and provided them with all the evidence to support my complaint. They are extremely keen to hear from people in the same position. I have tried to contact pockit for over two weeks sent approximately 58 ticket requests in excess of 79 chat messages and also in excess of 51 emails. To have no response..... I have explained in detail my situation. They have all the information they requested this has been sent on three separate occasions. They have also authorised my benefits payment. So clearly they are still accepting payments. I have been recommended to continue emailing etc and the two separate investigation departments will honour my complaint Maybe by writing this they might sort this out. I have also been advised to share this to as many platforms as possible in order to make people aware. Reviewed on: 9th December 2022

Shocking Bereavement Team - Poor Customer Service

1
Trying to complete a bereavement process, every obstacle has been placed in the way, including excuses of fuzzy documents that every other bank seems to be able to read fine, to outright lies of not receiving emails. There is a very good reason they do not have a customer phone number, as they are able to control traffic in by ignoring communications. Reviewed on: 5th December 2022
