Another one of my work-related subscriptions failed to renew.
And the response by BML is that it’s not an essential subscription payment.
Amazon Prime and HBO are somehow “essential” but the sub I need for my work is not.
Incredible job @bankofmaldives@MMuizzu
Saabas hama 👏🏽
The level of frustration I have with @bankofmaldives right now is unmatched. Never thought I’d dislike a bank this much. The fact that the biggest bank in the Maldives operates like this is honestly a joke. 😑
Not only ecommerce. BML have included medical and travel foreign $3000 limit in their ‘daily national budget’. Meaning you cant pay for flight tickets, hotels & appointments 🤯
No need to try later bcux the payment will never go through.
Pls confirm this? @bankofmaldives
@bankofmaldives@ibujalyl Y’all couldn’t tell us
- WHAT the daily limit is
- WHEN the limit resets
- WHO is limited
- WHERE the limit is applied
and now we’re just supposed to believe our transactions are being declined for “various reasons”
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VALUABLE INFORMATION YOU DUMB MFS
Maldives to get PayPal this year, but the main bank can’t even process a basic Microsoft office subscription because of USD shortage banks own blanket policy on daily limit for foreign transactions.
The irony is you can’t really celebrate this win neither be too excited, cause what good is PayPal if there’s no dollars to move 🤷♂️.
While Visa, Mastercard, Stripe and rest of the world is moving towards stablecoins, I reckon we’d catch up in fintech in maybe 10 years. Question is, will it still be delta neutral by then?
Our coral reefs, mangroves, marine ecosystems, and protected islands are being stripped of legal protection. The abolishment of the EPA, the reopening of the shark fishery, and the legalization of destruction in protected areas are deeply alarming.
JOINT PRESS STATEMENT: The Systematic Dismantling of Environmental Protection in the Maldives
@TransparencyMV and @ecocare_mv alongside civil society organisations and community groups across the country, are raising this alarm — we cannot stay silent.
@MMuizzu you and your family get unlimited dollars to holiday in UK and Singapore.
Rayyathakah beyheh ganelan, overseas appointment eh hadhan, essential online subscription akah dollar eh nulibey.
Balaa verikamehnu thikuranee?
Not all international transactions are for gaming & shopping! Our survival & jobs depend on it!
The ones that are struggling, people like us, we will never forgive you! Stop trying to limit our lives, fucking wannabe dictator!
The meds started working & I was so happy bc | was getting better physically & mentally!
But guess what? I am unable to make an appointment through the hospital's application & get new prescription or meds BECAUSE WE CANT FUCKING PAY FOR IT DUE TO THIS @bankofmaldives LIMIT!
BML stop lying !
We’re all seeing the screenshots every single day. Subscriptions are getting declined because of your foreign limit. Enough with this “various reasons” bullshit.
You don’t have enough dollars, that’s the truth.
Just admit it.
We have not restricted subscription payments, and such transactions do not fall under the daily foreign spend budget. However, we have noticed that, for various reasons, some subscription payments have been declined by merchants.
If your subscription payment has declined, please contact us directly, and we will immediately provide the appropriate solution.
