Avoid this money transfer company. Use Ria, it is more reliable
I made a money transfer through this company with the purpose of humanitarian help for food for Ukrainian army. They asked extra documents to prove income, bank statements and ID. After sending all the documents they refused the payment advising that it is against their T&Cs and ‘List of Banned Industries’ which is not published anywhere on their website and advised that this was because of the reason of the transfer and advised to change it. I have changed the reason, however they rejected the transfer again. Later, I have made another transfer to support my family as they are the victims of Russian aggression and I send them money regularly. Opal asked for more bank statements to "nail" it to the end and waive off questions they may have about my income (even though statements clearly show a lot of savings and they previously cleared questions to my income) and advised lengthy waiting times up to 4 days to get a reply from their manager. Talking to customer services gave an impression they were winding me up with the situation and intentionally were delaying money transfers, even though family help transactions in the past were processed same day. No T&Cs or reference to their ‘List of Banned Industries’ were provided or sent to me via email as promissed by advisor. Will never use this company again. All the good experience I had in years was blown out of the window with this poor customer service and lack of customer care. Lost a client...

Dear Ms Andriy Chemyrtan,
we are so sorry to hear that your experience with our company has not met your expectations.
We understand your stress and the need to support your country in such a difficult time for Ukraine.
Please, be informed, that Opal Transfer must screen their transfers against restricted regions, sanctioned persons, entities and banks, politically exposed persons and prior to processing the transfer, Opal Transfer must ensure that client’s activity or transaction is not involved in any of the Banned industries.
Unfortunately, we cannot send money to any military (e.g. army) forces. However, we are ready to send money for humanitarian purposes.
We would note, that due to the sensitive situation in Ukraine, we are doing our best to send as many transfers as possible, but additional information and/or documentation may be asked from you as a sender and/or receiver as a result of a more comprehensive transaction monitoring.
The list of Restricted regions, Sanctions lists and Banned industries is available on our website in the link below:

Unfriendly customer services.
HERE ,THE QUESTION IS NOT WEATHER THE CUSTOMER COMPLIES WITH THE REGULATIONS OR NOT;WHAT WE CRITISIZE HERE:THEIR MANNER POLICIES AND WORKING MANNER..we have so many OTHER VERIFIED ACCOUNTS IN OTHER FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS,THEY ARE ALSO authorized and supervised by the Bank of Lithuania, and THOSE COMPANIES operate according to European Union laws. THE OTHER COMPANIES help THEIR customers to make fast, easy, and low-priced money transfers across Europe and provide THE CUSTOMERS with a safe environment for their transactions MUCH BETTER THAN OPAL TRANSFER!. Therefore, every client who passes the mandatory verification requirements in the UK easily because of their efficency; ever customer can benefit from THE OTHER COMPANIES services MUCH BETTER THAN THE OPAL TRANSFER SERVICES.THEREFORE THEY WONT CHOOSE the opal transfer,unnecessary, BECAUSE OF THEIR AILING SERVICES AND INEFFICENT SERVICE MANNER AND INADEQUTE POLICIES..
Unfriendly customer services.. INADEQUATE APPROACH IN ACCOUNT OPENING REQUESTS.. IMPROPER POLICIES AND RULES.. STAY AWAY. YOU CAN FIND BETTER ONE ON THE NET

Dear Ismail, we have communicated your account situation to you each time you have contacted us, both in writing and by telephone. And every time, our team answered your questions and concerns professionally and with courtesy, and in the same manner we communicate with every person who calls us.
Unfortunately, you didn't comply with the existing security checks; hence we cannot offer you an Opal Transfer account.
Please, be informed that Opal Transfer EU, UAB is a money transfer company authorized and supervised by the Bank of Lithuania, and the company operates according to European Union laws. We help our customers to make fast, easy, and low-priced money transfers across Europe and provide them with a safe environment for their transactions.
