Give me alternatives to stupid banks (crypto?) + not-so-bad banks (Revolut?) (lemmy.world)

Yes, I did my research. But even my Revolut account requires a damn SMS here and there, and I'm trying to just prep for going off-the-grid entirely for the rest of 2024. Justification: fuck not?

SOOOOOOO Send ém to me, Lemmurs. Revolut= maybe

I want the bank that just opens an account, receives fiat currency, doesn't fuck around with incompetency (stares at a few Credit Unions and Banks) and such.

Crypto I think is being handled by a friend, hope they're right. Banks are on the way out, I know.. I know...

Q: Other than Revolut, which ones are Lemmy approved? Q: Nah, that's it really. I want to open account, and close my other bank. Q: How are you, and why are there beans in my Texas Chili in New Yoawrrk?

Sounds like you're looking for the time honored Bank of Mattress Stuffed with Cash or their counterpart, Coffee Can Under the Sink Savings & Loan.

If you're truly committing to off grid, go full analog.

Otherwise you just sound like a poorly veiled ad for some sketchy unregulated money exchange.

Not the best community to ask.

DKB is a great bank.
