So far this is the best fintech bank we tried for business (we tried many). Best support in banking field I have ever seen. It is like you have a personal banker, but you are just a regular customer.... See more

Good Bank Experience

Had a fantastic banking experience thanks to Angie, my account CSM. Altery is definitely worth the time, and their app feels very stable compared to other banks on the market.

I never ever had any issue with them

I never ever had any issue with them. Faster payments are instant. Regulatory checks are made very quick( if necesary) I recive my wages on this account and I use it as a main account. The only minus I would say is that you still do not accept BACS payments,and BACS is usually used for wages,benefits or student loans.

Extremely Disappointed! Transfer Rejected, NO REFUND After 1.5 Months!

Update:
After two months I received the tracking code and now I have contacted my bank to confirm the whereabouts of the money and he is finally back in my account

I am furious with Altery. I transferred money from my own bank account to my Altery account on September 18th.

The transfer never arrived. On Sep 23rd, they asked for proof, which I provided. A week later (Sep 30th), they REJECTED the transfer.

It is now November 5th. It has been 48 days since I sent the money and 36 days since it was "rejected." I still have NOT received my refund.

Customer support is useless. I've contacted them 4 times.

First, they said a "team would contact me" (they never did).

Then, they asked for my bank statement (I sent it).

Then, they asked for two months of statements!

Their latest excuse is they are "waiting for refund proof from their provider." This is unacceptable. Altery has been holding my money hostage for over a month after rejecting the transfer.

Avoid this company at all costs. They are holding my funds and provide zero solutions.

Hi Fran,

We’re sorry about the inconvenience and appreciate your patience while this matter is being reviewed. As a regulated financial institution, we must follow strict compliance procedures, which sometimes means certain transactions require additional checks before processing.

Our team has been in touch with you directly and will continue to share updates by email. Please be assured that we’re doing our best to bring this to a close as soon as possible.

Practical and flexible approach

Our experience with Altery has been very positive. The team has a practical and flexible approach, always ready to help with our business needs, which really sets them apart from many others. As usual, we needed the account opened “yesterday,” and the team quickly stepped in. We successfully completed the process efficiently after a few rounds of KYC verification. The company is developing rapidly, offering new services and simplifying and making processes more convenient. We are pleased to work with them and look forward to continuing to grow together.

Zero customer focus and total suspicion.

No fintech service has ever requested so many confidential documents for verification! Endless requests for more and more documents, bank statements, etc. As if I'm some kind of scammer. They'll even get into your bed. I absolutely do not recommend them; there are plenty of other services where compliance and KYC identification are simpler and more trustworthy. Two of my friends, who live in different countries, also had their accounts suddenly blocked, and they were unable to get their money back for two months.

Hello,

Thank you for your review and for highlighting this point. We understand your concern about the number of documents requested.

As a regulated financial institution, we’re required by law to verify customer information and, in some cases, request additional documents to ensure compliance with anti–money laundering rules. This process helps us protect our customers and maintain a secure platform.

We’d be happy to proceed with your account once the remaining documents are received. Please contact us at support@altery.com, and our team will assist you further.

Very bad experience! Stay away from this bank

I’ve been waiting for more than three weeks and my account is still “under review.” Every day they ask for more and more documents without giving any clear reason or progress. Extremely slow and unprofessional service. I do not recommend this bank at all.
