Used to be good but since WeSwap 2 app came out (which is unusable) and website access was removed, it's become completely useless.

Fortunately after a lot of fiddling around I eventually managed to get my quite large balance refunded & the card is now binned.

If you have money with this company I suggest you do everything in your power to get it out before they go under with it.

As a side note, as a professional software developer with 41 years experience, I have never seen such a crap piece of s4ite as the WeSwap 2 app even get past unit testing, let alone into the live environment. WeSwap, you should be ashamed of yourselves.

I used weswap for years and would recommend it to friends but not anymore. After all the hassle of getting the new card that never worked I closed my account. If you follow the guidelines and email IDF with your bank details they do pay your money back in. It's not the bedt rate but I got back over £700 which was a relief. It was paid back within two days. Weswap card now in bin.

A company that has gone off the rails and will no doubt go under. Excellent initial idea of matching currency swaps. Recent woes from the transition to WS 2.0 are well documented and it was a shambles, personally it took nearly three months to get my money back including absolute non-communication for more than two months.

Exchange fees in the new entity are not remotely competitive; 2.49% standard for a swap although I was offered 1.7% (up from my previous 0% to 1.4% prior range) that is still hopeless. Not sure I would trust them with two bob anyway.

After my old weswap card stopped working and my funds frozen, I sent emails to them requesting them to deposit my fund into my bank account, this hasn't been done but they send me a email addressed to a Mr Mahoney stating that they had deposited in funds into his account. I sent four more email and have had no response, I think there might be some underhanded dealings going on as this is no way to run a business , so my zero rating is justified.

Used this company a few years ago and experienced no issues whatsoever.

Today would be a different story. I've loaded my card throughout Covid as a way of saving for my next trip abroad. Given all the negativity, decided to withdraw some money today.. computer said no!

All four ATM transactions declined. I have over £500 on my card that I would like back, yet there is absolutely no response from their customer service team. They take months to respond to emails and do not answer the phone. They ask you to leave a message and then you pray they contact you back. All be contacting the Ombudsman first thing Monday. However, I am fearful I have been screwed over quite royally.

Two month after requesting a card, no card no communication, no change of my adress as requested. This site is untrustworthy and a stranger to any form of customer service. One star us too many stars for this site
