It's a bit amateurish alright. Someone said their main site is more professional but this "German" version to attract other EU residents is slapped together pretty shoddily. Not even english version when you're set up to check your balance etc, only German!I signed up to this and was approved but am extremely unnerved by both their sign up and lodgement processes.
After emailing them your sensitive personal data, you just get a plain email with an IBAN for your deposit. It all looks so...amateur.

I will add this to the best buys thread but make it clear that it is a promo short term rate.

I did the same test, and it worked without issue.To test things out with advanzia, I transferred €1 into the account. The 1 euro showed up on their website. I tried to withdraw the same 1 euro and it didn't work.
Retried second time and the euro is still in the advanzia account.
Did anyone get to withdraw money successfully?
On balances above €5k otherwise no interest. The rate after 6 months is under 2%{{getTitleForCurrentLanguage();}}

They eventually transfered the €1 to me. Slow.I did the same test, and it worked without issue.
I think someone told me that you can re-register i.e. click on "mein.konto - Registrierung" and start again with your account number and set it up.Anyone have problems registering for the online banking?

Advanzia lost both my (electronically submitted on their system and confirmed by them) application and the identity documents sent to them by registered post. After a lot of time spent chasing this with their so-called "support" I came to the conclusion that I wouldn't trust them with with the small change needed when going to the shop for messages, nevermind a five or six figure sum of euros.Has anyone successfully withdrawn money back out of Advanzia and received the monthly interest etc? They say the minimum deposit is 5k, I'm hesitant to risk 5k to an entity who's online operation seems so amateurish and out-dated.
I have done this without any issue. I withdrew money and it was back in my Irish bank account within 3 hrs. Interest statements are available on the portal after 2-3 days. I've had no problems in the couple of months I've dealt with them.Has anyone successfully withdrawn money back out of Advanzia and received the monthly interest etc?
