April 28, 2014 I saw an add on Facebook about a prepaid card which one could use as an alternative way for payments. I used before iKobo andMoneybookers cards and it went very well. The problem is that when I signed up for an internet account at the VIABUY website to start to know their services before deciding to utilize it. It is the normal procedure with PayPal, Moneybookers, Paysafecard, Western Union and others.

What was my surprise when VIABUY immediately issued a MasterCard and sending it to me prior to any payment along with a piece of paper with their fees. Immediately after getting the card and checking their fees I requested the closure of the account according to the law and their own terms and conditions. Nevertheless, they declined to close the account unless I load the card with €99,70. This is the sum of money they would take as a fee, plus commissions and taxes. Nos they want €119,56.

Actually I pay about €47,00 per year to my local bank to use their entire services. How come I would agree with a card issuing fee of €99,70? Therefore, the amount charged by VIABY is outrageous I am realizing that it must be a money scheme to entrap people and make them paying enormous fees even if they never use their services.

I have called for the cancelation immediately, within 14 days of receiving the card, but they not only didn’t close the account, but started sending me emails asking for money. It is a really easy and dishonest way of making money!

There are many other people facing the same problem with VIABUY, you can read more about this here!
