  • He fought like a lion, and won, against an unfriendly and aggressive bank director. He stayed calm, objective and very persistent throughout. I can highly recommend him, and I would certainly consult him again, any time.

    Close a Bank Account
  • Fantastic service! My Hungarian bank account was closed from abroad, quickly and hassle-free. Communication was clear, friendly and professional the whole way, everything was handled securely, and the process turned out far easier than I had expected. The agent was polite and professional. Highly recommended!
