I can confirm this. I used to have an account with them quite a bit back when they were just starting out. They used to be much more relaxed with following international card-related policies and the American KYC regulations, which allowed me to get a card with ease. Now it is even impossible for me to access their website. They block access from IPs outside the European Union so that they don't have to deal with any legal complications that may arise from knowingly or unknowningly offering service to someone in a restricted region.
