The good old German regulator (BaFIN) appears to have been asleep on the job.  
 

At least the auditor spotted it....on this scale it would hard to miss!

Hope you get your cash back

Let’s see how long the auditors have missed the problems....it reminds me a little of Enron

Only took Ernst & Young 13 years to spot the black hole, they signed off the 2018 accounts...no problem...NO lessons have been learnt from ENRON...the rich get richer..the poor get xxafted! ☹️

Know a stock trader who has been preaching to me they are a busted flush for years; he tried shorting them because he believed there was more holes in their accounts than a sieve! Ultimately they have been propped up by malpractice and the board are blaming others now the brown stuff is flying around.

There’s an whole thread on ADVFN dedicated to Wirecard being overvalued, without some of the usual internet shorting clowns. This was just a matter of time.

Here is some more information regarding WireCard

I signed up to see if they might be usable for my payment processing, glad I went with Stripe instead.

  Important Communication from Wirecard

Dear Customer

You will have seen the recent press regarding Wirecard AG filing for administration in Germany. In light of this we wanted to update you urgently with respect to the current situation regarding Wirecard Card Solutions Limited (WDCS) in the UK.

The FCA has, today, imposed restrictions on WDCS's licence. Those restrictions can be found on the FCA Register, but we have included them at the end of this communication for you to see. Please be aware that some of these suspensions also apply to our agents and distributors. For the avoidance of doubt and for the time being, you must not accept money in relation to creating e-money under WDCS’ permissions

The impact of these requirements is that WDCS has temporarily suspended its electronic money issuing, card issuing and acquiring business with immediate effect and until further notice. In practical terms what this means for card programmes is that customers will not be able to use their cards and accounts while the suspension continues and, specifically, it will not be possible for customers to load funds, redeem funds, make card transactions or make any other account-based transactions. The practical impact for the merchant acquiring business, is that there will be no authorisation or processing of transactions and no payouts to merchants while the suspension is in place.

WDCS appreciates this will have an impact on you and your customers. WDCS is working hard to have the steps in place which will enable the suspension to be lifted so business can resume as usual.

We will provide further updates to you as soon as we can. Please note, we will also be updating our website so further developments can also be found there.

The wording and format of this notice is to be approved by the Authority prior to its being placed on the website.

5) Wirecard must secure all books and records and preserve all information and systems relating to electronic money and regulated payment services, and must retain these in a form and at a location, within the United Kingdom, to be notified to the Authority in writing by 12pm on 29 June 2020, such that they can be provided to the Authority, or to a person named by the Authority, promptly on its request.
