Postbank (Постбанк) анулює рахунки українців у Німеччині
Останніми роками Postbank - Постбанк привертає все більше критики з боку клієнтів та організацій із захисту прав споживачів. Багато клієнтів скаржаться на довгі черги у відділеннях і телефоном, неналежне обслуговування та технічні проблеми з онлайн-банкінгом.Нещодавно стало відомо, що Postbank все частіше закриває рахунки громадян України, які втекли від війни в терористичній державі Росія до Федеративної Республіки Німеччина та отримують допомогу від центру зайнятості, відповідно до абзацу 1 пункту 19 Загальних положень та умов Postbank. Це положення дозволяє Postbank розірвати ділові відносини з клієнтами за умови попередження за два місяці без пояснення причин.Захисники прав споживачів та постраждалі клієнти висловлюють занепокоєння щодо прозорості та справедливості такої практики. Вони критикують той факт, що несподіване закриття рахунків може призвести до значних незручностей, особливо якщо воно відбувається без детального обґрунтування. Для багатьох клієнтів закриття рахунку означає не лише організаційні зусилля, але й потенційні фінансові втрати.У зв'язку із закриттям Постбанком рахунків українських громадян у журналіста-спостерігача виникла підозра, що Постбанк, вочевидь, хоче позбутися так званих збиткових клієнтів за допомогою такого закриття рахунків. Дискусія про практику анулювання рахунків «Постбанку» негативно висвітлює важливість чітких і справедливих умов у банківському секторі.
Postbank terminates accounts of Ukrainians in Germany
Recently, the Postbank has increasingly attracted criticism from customers and consumer advocates. Many customers complain about long waiting times in branches and on the phone, inadequate customer service and technical problems with online banking.It has recently been revealed that Postbank is increasingly terminating the accounts of Ukrainian citizens who fled to the Federal Republic of Germany from the war waged by Russia, the state of terror, and who receive benefits from the job centre, in accordance with No. 19 (1) of Postbank's General Terms and Conditions. This clause allows Postbank to terminate business relationships with customers by giving two months' notice without stating reasons.Consumer advocates and affected customers have expressed concerns about the transparency and fairness of this practice. They criticize the fact that unexpected account closures can cause considerable inconvenience, especially if they are carried out without detailed justification. For many customers, the closure of their account not only means organizational effort, but also potential financial disadvantages.Regarding these account closures of Ukrainian citizens by Postbank, the journalistic observer is led to suspect that Postbank apparently wants to get rid of so-called unprofitable customers with these account closures. The debate about Postbank's termination practice casts a negative spotlight on the importance of clear and fair terms and conditions in the banking sector.
