Update on our progress so far

We would like to provide you with the latest update we have with regards to our progress with remediation activities. In this update we will post some information which we hope will help customers run through the process faster.

Our progress on customers contacted

We continue to increase the number of customers we are contacting.
We have already contacted several groups of personal accounts and now we’re working with them in terms of collecting the information we need to move towards enabling access to funds. We will continue to extend the number of customers to be contacted.

We’ve also started contacting corporate customers. There are more steps to take in order to review our corporate customers in comparison to personal accounts so we will need some more time to make sure we process everything correctly. We soon plan to extend the number of corporate accounts to be contacted.

Some stumbling blocks during remediation the process - personal accounts

We have noticed a few areas where our customers struggle during the remediation process and we would like to provide some tips to help avoid these mistakes.

Your personal data

As the first step of the remediation, we will show you the personal data we have on file for you.

Please make sure that:

• Your name is written in latin exactly as it’s written in your ID document (international ID document): no spelling errors and no typos
• Your name is placed correctly in fields: your first name is written in the “First name” field and the last name - in the “Last name” field
• Your address is complete and correct
• Make sure home/apartment number is specified & correct.
  If you notice a mistake during the first step of the remediation, the system allows you to make a change.

Identity verification

• During the identity verification process please make sure you upload a document which does meet our requirements (available in the drop down menu during the verification process)
