Here is somebody on this forum who used this service, posting about it shutting down last month

WEGA Card

Dies anyone else use the WEGA Card? I've used it loads and have 30k points on it. Just been told they are closing down and i will be losing all of my points with no avenue to try and spend them. To say im not impressed is an understatement.

Given the scrutiny we receive, it is essential that our due diligence is top notch. It appears not to be so.

I'd not picked up it was Corbett.

IIRC he has or has had very strong connections with Qatar.

Then there is this as well:

Handing out brochures that provide you with a credit card which is regulated by the financial industry protections makes you a real company, yeah. Tell you what, why don't you go and try to hand out your own branded Mastercard card? See how far you get.

I’m all in! What’s the limit on the card?

Oh and here's their parent company, Truxtun Capital, being listed as part of the FIDO Alliance Working Group

Truxtun Capital sat on the European Working Group of the FIDO Alliance and that Wega cards were active and used up until shutting down 2 months ago?

no one here seems to even try to argue against what he's claiming, just to claim he's not a fair commenter or do whataboutisms.

So essentially the article has been debunked in 5 minutes.

Both @Damocles & @Sir peace frog have debunked his 'investigative journalism' in a matter of minutes. The guy is yet another City detractor trying to sling mud at the club.

I think a business offering that’s gone bust is a legitimate explanation for having no staff or new customers.

The guy just tweeted another article didn't he? Or did he write the Offthepitch article?

Anyway, I wouldn't take any in-depth exclusive investigation seriously that translates Administrateur of a Geneva-based Swiss company into English as Administrator.

You do need to actually read the posts, they're not getting transmitted via radio waves into your head.
