Dear F I,

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your account opening experience was frustrating.

To clarify: Satchel is a licensed Electronic Money Institution regulated by the Bank of Lithuania (not Latvia), operating under EU financial services regulations.

Regarding the verification process:

Biometric verification: We use facial recognition technology to verify identity and prevent fraud. If the system encounters technical difficulties, our team follows up with alternative verification methods to complete the process securely.

Source of funds questions: As a regulated financial institution, we are legally required under EU Anti-Money Laundering regulations to understand the nature and purpose of the business relationship with our clients. Questions about the origin of funds and intended account usage are mandatory compliance requirements – not optional inquiries. All licensed banks, EMIs, and payment institutions across Europe must collect this information during onboarding.

These requirements exist to protect the integrity of the financial system and all customers using it. While we understand this level of scrutiny can feel intrusive, declining to provide this information means we cannot proceed with account opening, as we would be in breach of our regulatory obligations.

We regret that our service was not the right fit for your needs.

Kind regards,
Satchel Team

Dear Lyuben,

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your frustration and understand this situation has been confusing.

It appears there may have been a misunderstanding about our account opening process and fee structure. Let us clarify:

Account opening fees: For certain account types, particularly non-EU business accounts, there is an account opening fee that must be paid before the account becomes fully operational. This fee is clearly outlined in our pricing webpage. If you deposited funds before completing the account opening requirements, those funds would be held in your account but the account would not be active for transactions until the opening fee is settled.

Account status: If your account is not yet fully activated, this means the onboarding process has not been completed. We do not hold funds “hostage” – your balance remains in your account throughout this process.

Next steps: We would like to help resolve this situation. Please contact our support team at support@satchel.eu and we can:
- Clarify your current account status
- Explain the specific fees applicable to your account type
- Discuss options available to you, including account closure and return of your deposited funds

We understand that pricing information may not have been clear to you during registration, and we apologize if this caused confusion. Our team is ready to assist you directly and find an appropriate resolution.

Kind regards,
Satchel Team

Dear MithiVayu,

Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed and balanced feedback about your experience with Satchel. We genuinely appreciate your honesty.

We’re pleased to hear that you found our interface user-friendly and our SEPA payment services reliable. We’ve invested significantly in making our platform intuitive and ensuring SEPA transactions are processed efficiently.

Regarding the challenges you’ve highlighted:

SWIFT payment delays: We sincerely apologize for the delays you experienced with international SWIFT transfers. While SWIFT payments can sometimes be affected by intermediary bank processing, correspondent banking relationships, and compliance checks by third-party institutions, we recognize that 3-week delays are unacceptable for business operations. This is an area we are actively working to improve through enhanced banking partnerships and better communication during the transfer process.

Pricing & fees: We understand that our fee structure, particularly for non-EU business accounts, is higher than some alternatives. Our pricing reflects the regulatory compliance requirements, enhanced due diligence processes, and operational costs associated with serving international business clients. We strive to be transparent about all fees in our pricing documentation.

Onboarding process: As a regulated EMI, we must complete thorough KYC and compliance checks, but we are continuously working to streamline this process without compromising regulatory standards.
Your feedback about SWIFT services is valuable and will be shared with our operations team as we work to enhance our international payment infrastructure. We appreciate customers like you who provide constructive feedback that helps us improve.

Thank you for choosing Satchel for your SEPA payment needs during the past year.

Kind regards,
Satchel Team

Dear Sol Relord,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear that our onboarding process did not meet your expectations.

As a licensed Electronic Money Institution regulated by the Bank of Lithuania, we are legally required to comply with the EU's Anti-Money Laundering Directives (AMLD) and Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations. These requirements are not discretionary – they are mandatory under EU law for all financial institutions operating within the European Economic Area.

The regulatory framework we follow includes:
- EU Directive 2015/849 (4th Anti-Money Laundering Directive)
- EU Directive 2018/843 (5th Anti-Money Laundering Directive)
- Lithuanian Law on the Prevention of Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing

These regulations require us to verify customer identity, understand the nature and purpose of business relationships, and conduct ongoing monitoring. All licensed EMIs, banks, and payment institutions across Europe must comply with these same standards.

We understand that thorough verification processes can feel intrusive, but these measures are designed to protect the financial system and all customers using it. We strive to make this process as clear and efficient as possible while meeting our legal obligations.

If you have specific questions about the documentation we requested or our verification process, we're happy to clarify through our official support channel at support@satchel.eu.

Kind regards,
Satchel Team

Dear TOUATI ISAM EDDINE,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand your frustration with this situation and sincerely regret that your experience did not meet your expectations.

As a regulated Electronic Money Institution (EMI), Satchel operates within strict regulatory frameworks that govern our ability to intervene in commercial disputes between third parties. While we facilitate secure payment transactions between accounts, regulatory guidelines limit our involvement in contractual disagreements between businesses, even when both parties hold accounts with us.

We take all customer concerns seriously and encourage any client experiencing issues to contact our Customer Support team so we can review their specific situation within our regulatory obligations. Our team is committed to providing clear guidance on available options and ensuring customers understand our services and limitations.

We continuously strive to improve our customer communication and service delivery. Your feedback helps us identify areas where we can better explain our processes and regulatory constraints to prevent misunderstandings.

If you would like to discuss your specific case further, please feel free to reach out to our Customer Support team directly with your account details, and we will be happy to review what additional guidance we can provide within our regulatory framework.

Thank you again for your feedback.

Kind regards,

Dear Zach,

Thank you for sharing your feedback.

At Satchel, our onboarding process follows strict regulatory requirements, including detailed Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks. These procedures require the collection of specific information and documentation to ensure compliance with legal obligations and to protect both our clients and the institution.

While we understand that this process can be demanding, these measures are standard practice across the financial services industry. Account application decisions are based on regulatory guidelines and internal risk assessments, which sometimes result in applications being declined without detailed public explanation, in order to protect client confidentiality and comply with data protection regulations.

Kind regards,
Satchel Team
