Re: [ANN] Mistertango - Bitcoin friendly European Bank Account + free MasterCard
Found this on another thread and I think it will be good to post it here to inform more users.
And goodbye to this card too..
Dear Mistertango users,
We have some really bad news for you...
Due to the new regulations of "Mastercard" we can't issue card services for clients located outside Europe.
From the 2018-02-01 all "Mistertango" issued cards for non-EU clients will be disabled.
We are working hard to find new worldwide solution as fast as possible.
You will be still able to use your "Mistertango" account to receive and send SEPA and SWIFT transfers.
We are really sorry about this issue!
Sincerely,
Mistertango
On the positive side, they still allow SEPA and SWIFT transfers which means I can still load the account with coins and transfer Euros to my other accounts.
So, as I understand, EU based clients still will be able to use Mistertango card? Because I'm from EU and didn't got this notification. Dear Mistertango users,

If this information is accurate then Mastercard is now only for EU residents,I hope it is not just a matter of time when it will cancel card for us too.Although I do not understand why card issuers have such attitudes if every user must verify account with ID card/passport + selfie,it is very easy to track and monitor every user anywhere in the world.
