mate, I'm from Czech Republic and Airbank is pure Czech bank owned by PPF group as mentioned already above. they are not connected at all and links from google showing comparison of bank services and products in my country..
so again, it is not about banking system, check what I already posted..
Hi, I don't want to defend Bitstamp, but it's possible that the international transfers are somehow processed through RB (I remember there was similar partnership between FIO and CSOB banks, before FIO received bank licence).
hey, yes you are right. Bitstamp using some non-RB bank, I'm using also non-RB bank but somewhere in the middle is RB, which is acts as "relay" between us. I was not even aware, that it is working like this, so only fact, that bitstamp is not warning about this remains..
anyway, still is tricky, that is possible to deposit and impossible to withdraw with same bank account.
