We bought a restaurant last year. All the big banks in Finland: OP, Nordea especially refused to open a bank account for us to operate the restaurant. We don’t have any credit marking - me and my wife... See more

Avoid them at all cost

Avoid them at all cost - no reliable business partner. Sudden price changes - last one by 50%!!!!
Holvi has been a nice bank for small businesses - having a free account with just those little functions someone might need for a small business - SEPA-transactions, credit card.
In 2021 they changed the smallest account from free to 6EUR/month, probably calculating that most free users would try to avoid the hassle of setting up an account elsewhere.
For 6 EUR I can get an account at a "normal" bank around here - with empoyees I can talk to, with atm around the corner and not "just online"
Today the they dropped the bomb that they rise their prices from 6EUR/month to 9EUR/month by Jan 1st 2023 - thats a 50 % increase.
I don't need that new "features" - I just need an account with SEPA and creditcard - exactly what there has been in the beginning.

So no, thanks - this is not how a reliable partner acts around its customers. On my way to the trustful bank around the corner again - I'll get an account there for way less than 9EUR/month!

Of course, we’d love for you to continue using Holvi. But we know that running a business is a numbers game, and our new prices might not work for everyone. Take your time to prepare the next steps. Your current plan is still valid until the end of this year.

If you don’t agree with the new pricing and wish to close your account, please get in touch with our support team for instructions. We’ll do all we can to make this easy for you.

Highly recommended

Highly recommended, though the service prices are high for given services, but I prefer it over other banks for ease of use. I have Pro account and I find it easy to use. Several services can be added like LC operations like inbound& outbound, trade insurances but I think it's a long shot for them to go to such extend.

Great service

Great service, fast transactions, reasonable fee, prompt and useful assistance when needed. What I would ask to add - the SWIFT transactions.

Amazing service

Amazing service. Is a great way to keep the business numbers in place and get economic structure. As a freelancer this is an invaluable tool. Also very easy and fast support in English. Even if they don't have a call line, the chat and email work very very efficiently.

Not what they promised

Not what they promised

The holvi account I signed up for was supposed to be free and then they started charging a monthly fee to keep my money with them. Kinda ridiculous given that they don't pay any interest on the cash they hold (clearly keeping interest as well). Mistake to setup a holvi account. Would recommend against it.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are sorry to hear that you feel this way about our service. We've stopped our free account in 2021, that's right. But with Holvi you actually get more than just a business account. Starting with 6 EUR/month you get a service that helps you keep business finances effortlessly under control. That’s why Holvi exists. Here’s what you get with us:
Business account for the self-employed
Unlimited free transfers in euros
Holvi Business Mastercard® included
Scan and store receipts
Keep an eye on your business numbers

Lying about the terms and conditions

Lying about the terms and conditions; they claim you can open an account in several countries but they discriminate against customers (cannot live in other EU countries). Extremely rude and incompetent customer service. AVOID; AVOID; AVOID!!

Happy New Customer

I made an urgent request for the customer service, and got excellent service. The service was friendly, professional, patient and quick. They fulfilled all my expectations and gave me a good first impression of Holvi and its services. I am a happy new customer.

I would recommend to stay away from Holvi.

I was using Holvi for my Investment vehicle (UG). I am certain that I filled out all required information when I signed up 3 years ago. They recently sent me an email inquiring about a lot of information about my account, investments, etc. Because I don't use the account very frequently, I didn't read their email immediately. They have now terminated my contract and are closing my account.

No other bank has ever asked me this many questions about the activity of my company or holding.

major functions are missing

major functions are missing - like datev exports etc.
makes it a nightmare for GmbH to do the bookkeeping.

There are no plans in changing this - we changed to a different bank
