While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

Dear Zoltan,
Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry to hear that your experience with Genome was not pleasant. Sometimes our identification system may reject the document if it doesn’t meet standards. Plus, according to Lithuanian legislation driving license can't be accepted as an identification document. We would be happy to help you with further authentification. Please, could you write a request to support@genome.eu and specify the problem so our managers assist you.
If you would like to find out more about our services, you can always contact us and we will gladly answer your questions.
Best regards, Genome.

THEY WILL LOSE YOU ONLY FOR 1 WEEK

If you are a company, do not use this bank because it always asks you for new documents every day ... As far as I am concerned, my experience with this EMI has been bad ... Once all the official documents have been sent out and certified by public bodies and also in public registers they continue to make new requests for documents and when you give them all the documents their answer is FOR US NOT GOOD. All the documents provided have been accepted by all banks as they are official and they are not good for them ... If you don't want to waste time don't use this bank (EMI)

Dear Mr. Bernardo,
We are sorry to hear that you had trouble using Genome services, but we assure you that Genome is a regulated EMI, thus we don’t have access to our clients’ funds and cannot use them. We are not able to charge any fees that are not covered in our pricing policy, which is clearly and openly stated on Genome’s website.
If you believe that you were charged for something that does not fall under our pricing policy, we highly recommend you contact our technical support team.
Best regards, Genome.
