No form, no payment
A conversation with a real adviser, not a chatbot. Here is exactly how it unfolds, step by step, and the deadlines we commit to.
Which bank, the reason given for the block, the date it started, the approximate amount. Three or four messages are enough — no documents are requested at this stage.
Timeline · Reply in under 5 min (9am–9pm)
Your adviser tells you which procedure applies to your case, your estimated chances of unblocking and a realistic timeline. If your case stems from a court order or a tax seizure, we say so plainly — we don't take it on.
Timeline · Same day
You get the list of useful documents (statements, proof of source of funds, your exchanges with support) and the schedule of actions, with the date of every follow-up.
Timeline · Within 24h of the diagnosis
We draft your written complaint with you — first to customer service, then to the firm's complaints department — citing the regulatory references that oblige it to answer.
Timeline · Bank's reply due within 15 days
If there is no reply or an unexplained refusal, we prepare the referral to the competent ombudsman (Financial Ombudsman Service in the UK), then the report to the supervisory authority (FCA in the UK, ACPR / Banque de France in France).
Timeline · Triggered as soon as the deadline passes
A progress update in the same WhatsApp conversation at every stage completed, with a copy of every letter sent on your behalf.
Timeline · Continuous, for as long as it takes
Administrative assistance, not legal advice
We help you build and follow up your complaints. We are not a law firm, not a payment institution, not a public authority, and we do not represent your bank.
No guaranteed outcome
No intermediary can guarantee that an account will be unblocked: the decision belongs to the firm, the ombudsman or the regulator. We commit to the procedure and the deadlines, not to the outcome.
Personal data (UK GDPR / GDPR)
Your information is used solely to handle your case, is never sold, and is deleted on request. You have the right to access, correct and erase it.
What we never ask for
No passwords, no SMS codes, no access to your online banking, and no payment to “release” your funds. Any such request is an attempted fraud.
Free routes stay open
Referring your case to the ombudsman and reporting it to the regulator remain free and available to you directly, at any time, with or without our help.

The conversation starts with the free diagnosis. You decide what happens next.
Hundreds of thousands of accounts are frozen every year across Europe and the UK by automated checks. Behind every block is a rent payment, a salary, a business's cash flow. We put the process on your side.
Every reason for a block has its own lever. Here are the typical cases your action plan is built to handle.
Salary payment frozen pending proof of the source of funds that was never clearly requested.
Account closed by the bank with a balance of several thousand pounds not returned for weeks.
Selling a car: the buyer's transfer triggers an automatic account freeze.
Access suspended overnight, live chat silent, nothing beyond automated replies.
PayPal or Wise balance held for 180 days after activity flagged as unusual.
Documents submitted three times, rejected without reason: the expected format was simply never specified.
Funds from an inheritance frozen pending notarial proof that no one is explicitly requesting.
Client payments blocked on an online business account, activity at a standstill.
Account frozen after a change of address abroad, verification that never completes.
Complaint left unanswered beyond the legal deadline: the case moves to the ombudsman.

Frozen for two months with no explanation and no reply from support. The case was built in 48 hours and the funds were returned in 11 days. Flawless WhatsApp follow-up.

£14,800 frozen at Monzo after a business transfer. Formal notice, then an ombudsman referral: account reactivated and transfer released. I had no idea I had those options.

The diagnostic said 10 to 15 days, it took 13. Every step was explained, along with the legal deadlines the bank had to meet. Nothing to fault.

Balance held for 180 days by PayPal. Letter sent, reply within 9 days, funds transferred to my account. For £59 that's fair given the time I'd already lost.

Most often: an automated anti-money-laundering check (an unusual transfer, an expired document, a large incoming payment). The bank sometimes isn't allowed to give you the exact reason. That doesn't entitle it to hold your funds indefinitely, though.
The diagnostic is free, instant and with no commitment. You'll know within 2 minutes whether your case can be unblocked — then we call you back for the next steps.
