I opened a Metro bank account about three years ago as they were crypto-friendly and at the time Natwest wasn't. I then, after about two years was told that their stance with buying and selling crypto had changed and they closed my account. I had to remove and money that I had in there. I then found out that Natwest was now supporting crypto purchases so I went back to them. So now Natwest is back at it again with "for my protection" banning crypto purchases to Binance. They are running so scared as they know their days are numbered. They can't stop crypto and realise this so they are making the on/off ramps impossible!!
Love the video, Makes so much of a difference to have someone actually just talk about crypto in a level voice instead of schilling, shouting, and screaming about things.
Nuri - In 2013 I was in a position to put £80k into bitcoin and the only reason I didn't was because the portal was called 'BitWala' and it just sounded dodgy, like your money would got to a middle eastern warlord and that was it. If it wasn't for that I'd have over 300 BTC now. Branding DOES matter!!!
I love how Binance has been around and operating in the UK for years, and now suddenly we need to be protected. Glad the banks have our best interests at heart.
The banks decided crypto was terrible the moment they realized Defi meant they are likely to lose a lot of fees, commissions, and interest in the near future. They also hate that transaction throughput is being exponentially improved and people are in a position where they may start to genuinely use crypto for transacting actual business outside their feifdoms.
@@youtubecensorwrongthink5914 how do you manage to withdraw and transfere from and to exchanges and convert into fiat to live from. I find it all a bit daunting and diffecult to get my head round.
Another great video Guy! One point to make - First Direct is part of the HSBC Group, and Halifax is part of the Lloyds Group. Whilst there isn't anything about Lloyds in this video, it is likely that both banks will follow the approach of their overall Group. This means that First Direct will probably soon take the same approach as HSBC. If Lloyds decide to take any anti crypto action it's likely that Halifax will do the same. I've spent the best part of a decade working in similar organisations (in conduct risk, trying to keep on the right side of the FCA as it happens) and these sorts of things usually come from on high and are applied across the Group, so just one to bear in mind if you're a customer at either of these
I agree. My money will stay in crypto forever. I will only withdraw the amount I need at that moment, and leave the rest in crypto. Crypto is my bank account now...
To be clear, close your accounts in those banks that do this to us customers, there are alternatives. united we can force them give up on this stupidity.
Lloyds and Halifax are pretty good with Crypto, family and friends have never had any issues. They’ll do a security text at most but that’s good they’re doing their job.
Hi Guy, thanks for your analysis. Do you have any opinion regarding Plutus? It seems promising to me but I may have missed something. Thanks for your lights.
Starling bank seem like a good option, they apparently have lifted their ban on 23rd June...and ban only affected payments to the exchange, not withdrawals
Whatever on-ramp you use, I would suggest you check if you can buy XRP and then transfer it to Binance - it is really quick has almost no fees.... (about 0.01 XRP = $0.006 approx ).
In Canada, I have gone through all the same hurdles. BMO, RBC, TD, Scotia and CIBC all gave me the finger, even my ethnic credit union. However, there is (for now) Binance peer to peer exchange with zero fees. You etransfer sellers and Binance handles the trust component. Just keep it under your daily limit so you don’t raise any red flags.
Your research continues to be amazing! Thank you, Guy, for everything you are doing for the crypto community! “I’ve got you covered!” is so reassuring!
Swissquote is a very reputable small digital bank in Europe, working closely with Bitstamp and you don't need to be resident to apply. They also have crypto exchange with more cryptos than Nuri as well as world wide stock market and currencies.
Keep up the absolute wonderful job your doing, you have the best content out there and I just love the logic of it. By the way, the fact that you have no adds is AMAZING ( not sure if many noticed that). So a big Thank you for your videos. Is there any chance we can have your opinion over the pulse chain?
Top tip: Use Nexo where you can simply make a bank transfer (with no fees) in fiat. Nexo can just be used for high interest savings on £, $ and Euros, but they have an exchange where you can buy the major cryptos, and again, you avoid any fee swapping your fiat to crypto. I also use Uphold and Halifax have not given me an issue about it.
I have entered the Crypto space since April this year and found this RUclips channel is the most trusted and informative channel for the Crypto market. Well done.

You can use Paypal as an intermediary. Transfer from your exchange to your paypal account, and from paypal, transfer to your bank account. This avoids the red flags.
@@ThisisFerrariKhan Don't worry. I'm constantly buying high and selling low, so you probably owe me money. No, seriously... be aware that no money is created. For everything someone gains, somebody else has to loose. So I'm happy with all the rich pumping their money into crypto. I'm swiss, but I'm not rich - thanks to everything being expensive in Switzerland.
So I have heard, my Ally account has been frozen twice in the last month with simple Coinbase transactions and the reset process is a PITA. Chase was worse and I had been CC customer with them for 20+ years.
FSCS protected up to £85.000 per banking group - not per account - AND -if you check their reserves you'll find that the fund has approx. £43.60 reserves per £1000 insured. Just think about that for a moment.
Nice to be at VIP level with BOA. Most of my friends are hard working regular joe just trying to get into crypto so they can get to vip level, but BOA charges them international bank fees. Not so they are not friendly to small working people.
@@behappi2371 I don't see any? I pulled $1k out the other day from Coinbase, and got $985 into my bank account in 2 days, with Coinbase taking $15. So far I don't have any complaints. It's pretty funny, I'm aware of all the shady things banks do, and BOA are for sure creeps, but they've always been pretty good to me, and I'm not even a valued customer.
Revoult do not transfer to Binance! I have used nationwide, they block it every time. Have to waste my time, to unblock my money. It really pisses me off.
I got a Nuri account after watching this video, and they have been a terrible experience so far. 2 money transfers did not appear from my UK account, I gave them the benefit of the doubt and hoped they would resolve the issue, however its been well over a month, one payment has come through now with no explanation of the delay. They have refused to liase with my UK bank to get to the bottom of the issue, have been slow in any correspondence and not answered my concerns effectively. I'm hoping they come through and will sort it out, but no sign of that yet, hopefully the missing funds may arrive, but not holding my breath. avoid!!
Trading seems a bit too clouded to me with all these figures going around plus my busy schedule, an hour in a day was just all I needed, now my equity earns for me even more than the time I dedicate it at work. Elizabeth cuts it for me.
There was a point that Starling tried too. They were blocking my payments for a week, saying they needed to investigate it first. After several complaints I made, they apologised and restored. No issues now!
Last week Citibank Hong Kong finally completed my transfer after 16 days, in the past it has taken 2 days. I had to call the bank on multiple occasions, my first transfer was rejected the second attempt went through successfully.
like watching your videos, explain stuff really good and some nice sarcastic jokes, by any chance have you done a video on ( CRYPTO and TAX in the UK). Im a 6 month newbie but worried that i found out not long ago you have to pay tax on profits (not that theres much of that today) maybe also stick in the video, how to dodge the taxman. :))
You’re right about DEX and P2P Smart contract banking. It’s only a matter of time until those apps are more user friendly. Remember only 25 years ago, configuring your computer modem for a dial up ISP to download email from port 43 was a 20 minute process. Today, we don’t even think about that stuff anymore.

@@julianunderwood6615 soon but for now our government is only focus on election only politics is always shown in media.. but i wish them to regulate it now so binance will comply it..
The death of Binance just means some other exchange will take its place as the go-to centralized exchange, and when that exchange gets targeted, it too will be replaced. You can't stop the free market.
Changed to Monzo after seeing this video back in July, but made a large deposit today and tried a withdrawal of that same amount, today, account immediately frozen, no reason given, account released within the hour but Monzo will close the account in March. Watched this video again and wished I had remembered the comment by Guy about keeping under the radar, I certainly was a large blip on the radar and no doubt the reason for losing the account.
Yes I've had no issues. I wondered if it was because account holders are the ones that they care about rather than just a bunch of management suits? We get to vote on who we want on the board of directors.
I had a crypto transaction stopped by them too but I gave their fraud office a ring and they were sound. I really like Nationwide, they have good fraud prevention teams and are always very easy to contact and helpful. They do tend to be quite cautious, so I have had my account frozen before, but I feel like they are trying to provide good protection, rather than trying to interfere with my banking.
I’ve been sending money to Cash App, buying BTC and sending that off to convert if I need to. Kind of a hassle, but worth it to avoid issues until I get another bank for crypto.
Same dear...I had 1btc. I was doing okay but I lost my job due to the virus. i began mine with prof elizabeth. I have made over 6.9 btc using her services.
N26 is also a good alternative. Almost similar to Revolut, although you need to be a European citizen. Therefore Revolut is my preferred option whilst in the UK.
As an American I had a big problem with Chase earlier this year. Bank of America still doesn’t have a limit. I really wish BlockFi would have full deposit checking and savings accounts. Great video Guy!
A big thank you for your tips. Really useful. I also wanted to mention that so far I have had no issue sending separate withdrawals from Bitstamp to HSBC bank, nothing has been flagged over a great many withdrawals, so I was surprised to hear you mention HSBC.
It’s not just the banks, I tried to sign up for CelsiusNetwork only to find that they have relocated to America and are no longer allowing new sign up registrations from the UK citing issues from the FCA 😩🤬
thanks guy, i have been waiting for this one. I have been using nationwide for my crypto transactions. But i have just set up a monzo account just in case. thank u for all you do. keep it up, u are a legend :)
I use revolut since years. Yes its expancive, I buy some cryptos wait till I have profit and exchange to fiat. This works very easy and I cover the fees with Profit.
I'm worried about the big wallpaper in the back being a big ass subliminal message regardless of the context of the video. Starling and Monzo are dope for now until they get flipped
The ban applies only to Binance. So it should still be possible to send/withdrawal from other crypto exchanges.. So are the banks really crypto unfriendly or just want to bring the crypto exchanges to follow regulation?
Agreed....that did puzzle me when he said First Direct were good when I know HSBC are the worst in this arena while being money laundering crooks themselves.
Just to let you know Revolut don't allow you to buy anything on binance. So if you thinking to use this for binance then don't open an account with them.

@@julianunderwood6615 soon but for now our government is only focus on election only politics is always shown in media.. but i wish them to regulate it now so binance will comply it..
The death of Binance just means some other exchange will take its place as the go-to centralized exchange, and when that exchange gets targeted, it too will be replaced. You can't stop the free market.
Bankers will say "FUD" 😆
Great video! Could you make an updated one? Where you also review options for people residing in the Middle East.
HSBC been okay for me so far (touch wood)
HSBC is the organized crime bank, they do lots of money laundering. Look into it.

Changed to Monzo after seeing this video back in July, but made a large deposit today and tried a withdrawal of that same amount, today, account immediately frozen, no reason given, account released within the hour but Monzo will close the account in March. Watched this video again and wished I had remembered the comment by Guy about keeping under the radar, I certainly was a large blip on the radar and no doubt the reason for losing the account.
Nationwide has been fine so far.
Odd they tugged a transaction of mine the other day. Oh well, straight into nexo, convert to LTC and job done.
Yes I've had no issues. I wondered if it was because account holders are the ones that they care about rather than just a bunch of management suits? We get to vote on who we want on the board of directors.
I had a crypto transaction stopped by them too but I gave their fraud office a ring and they were sound. I really like Nationwide, they have good fraud prevention teams and are always very easy to contact and helpful. They do tend to be quite cautious, so I have had my account frozen before, but I feel like they are trying to provide good protection, rather than trying to interfere with my banking.
Never had any issues with nationwide. When cashing out this year I was expecting problems but nope sailed through.
I’ve been sending money to Cash App, buying BTC and sending that off to convert if I need to. Kind of a hassle, but worth it to avoid issues until I get another bank for crypto.
Same dear...I had 1btc. I was doing okay but I lost my job due to the virus. i began mine with prof elizabeth. I have made over 6.9 btc using her services.
India is more crypto friendly than eu it seems, guess who’s more developed 😂
RBI doesn't even allow crypto cards in India.
N26 is also a good alternative. Almost similar to Revolut, although you need to be a European citizen. Therefore Revolut is my preferred option whilst in the UK.
Great advice. And was just the information I needed! You really know how to read your audience!
I’ve been waiting for this video, ace, thanks! I hope guy is stored in a safe deposit box and/or a zip lock bag!
As an American I had a big problem with Chase earlier this year. Bank of America still doesn’t have a limit. I really wish BlockFi would have full deposit checking and savings accounts. Great video Guy!
Blockfi 😂😂😂
Ill give you 50% interest a day if you give me your private keys
A big thank you for your tips. Really useful. I also wanted to mention that so far I have had no issue sending separate withdrawals from Bitstamp to HSBC bank, nothing has been flagged over a great many withdrawals, so I was surprised to hear you mention HSBC.
Fantastic video, thank you. I just tried to open a Nuri account and it was not accepted because I live in Hong Kong. Do you have any advice?
Thanks Guy! Solid advice for UK crypto trading!!
This is simply the best channel out there when it comes down to crypto information.
Thank you, thank you !!!
New in the crypto world, your videos are a great help to understand it 👍
for some reason lloyds bank stopped me from sending fiat to binance
It’s not just the banks, I tried to sign up for CelsiusNetwork only to find that they have relocated to America and are no longer allowing new sign up registrations from the UK citing issues from the FCA 😩🤬
thanks guy, i have been waiting for this one. I have been using nationwide for my crypto transactions. But i have just set up a monzo account just in case. thank u for all you do. keep it up, u are a legend :)
I use revolut since years. Yes its expancive,
I buy some cryptos wait till I have profit and exchange to fiat. This works very easy and I cover the fees with Profit.
First Direct is a strange one as it is owned by HSBC
I'm worried about the big wallpaper in the back being a big ass subliminal message regardless of the context of the video. Starling and Monzo are dope for now until they get flipped
Appreciate the video Guy, these bank recommendations are aptly needed!
I tried to transfer funds from my Lloyds Bank account. They completely declined all payments without any reason, to Binance.
How do you convert USDT to USD inside bybit?
The ban applies only to Binance. So it should still be possible to send/withdrawal from other crypto exchanges..
So are the banks really crypto unfriendly or just want to bring the crypto exchanges to follow regulation?
First Direct is part of HSBC , if HSBC start stopping transactions with Bitcoin exchanges, or their banks, then First Direct will do too
Agreed....that did puzzle me when he said First Direct were good when I know HSBC are the worst in this arena while being money laundering crooks themselves.
Just to let you know Revolut don't allow you to buy anything on binance. So if you thinking to use this for binance then don't open an account with them.
Hi Guy! I think it is time for an informed update of this video! It looks like there is no chance to buy crypto anymore with a bank!
I'm leaving Santander now - they stopped my money and charge me £2 a month to have their pissy account - screw them
