Verified Reviewer | Los Angeles, CaliforniaIt took me a while to know that bitcoin recovery is real
URGENT!! Pls i need an advice.
I am currently doing a crypto recovery with an agency called refund polici under this email refundpolici (at) gmail (dot) com and we did some transaction validation via their whatsapp +1 ( 65* ) * * * * * * *.
Out of 230,000 USD which we recovered, I have only received only 67,000 USD and its been 4 days already since we started. I am a bit worried, i will like to know if they took the remaining of my money or if it is actually impossible to recover entirely everything i lost.

Verified ReviewerLost funds recovery
I was unable to make any withdrawals out of my initial deposits let alone the gains he claimed I have earned even after meeting the bogus fees and charges I got to know about Marketpeace a Bitcoin recovery web and programmers through research . After a couple of hours consulting with them, all my funds were recovered including my profits.
I cant thank these guys enough for making me not another prey to these scammers. Consult them via: MarketPeace net.
Preferred solution: Full refund

Verified ReviewerDubai licensing and regulations
With thanks and permission from Pensionlife.
UAE Insurance Authority. Licence number 180.Having a licence granted by the IA means that the company has been set up in accordance with their rules.
Pension Life:
Holborn Assets had their licence suspended due to a contract lawyer client working for a firm in Dubai who was advised by financial adviser Joe Capaldi to place his investments in an RL360 insurance bond resulting in a loss of 500,000 GBP and the subsequent successful complaint to the IA.
Holborn Assets has issued an email to all advisers informing them that all future business will be conducted through the Bahamas office until this situation is resolved.
Their licence was re-instated after one month. Wonder why.
Dubai Economy Commercial Licence. Licence number 561405
A licence required to run any commercially run company within Dubai.It is not a regulatory body. Holborn is registered on the insurance broker list, not as financial advisers.
Dubai Financial Services Authority. NOT LICENCED
Only operates within the free zone called the Dubai International Finance Centre. "Proudly enforcing financial regulation as within the UK."
Holborn Assets is not situated within the Free Zone and therefore has no need to be licenced.
The financial adviser allocated to me was self-employed, ferile, and could thus recommend funds from other sources, as he did do. Interestingly, he was listed as a vice-president of Holborn at the time!
A UK based adviser has to have commercial indemnity insurance. This is not required in Dubai in the case (as above) of Holborn Assets.
It is unfortunate that one bad apple can tarnish the high reputation of the UAE.
Good advice from a Dubai resident...... "If you are contacted by Holborn Assets, run away as fast as your legs can go"
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Don't.

HOLBORN asserts £56000 to zero in UK pension lost less than three years after following HOLBORN Assets advice
Hi John Apologies I thought I had come back to you on this, but checking my email I have not. I have been back to both IVCM your SIPP provider and Old Mutual the underlying platform provider.
They have confirmed that the AMT futures fund manager charged a 5% penalty on the original investment amount resulting in a penalty for withdrawing from the fund of GBP2,436, this 5% penalty does not decrease over time (as would be normal for a mutual fund) and was for the whole term of the investment within the AMT fund. This 5% charge plus the penalty charges and already overdrawn position on the Old Mutual Bond resulted in a negative balance on the overall bond of minus GBP2437 which technically was owed to Old Mutual. Old Mutual have written of this ‘debt’ and therefore there is nothing left in the pension account to be paid to yourself (but also no debt to Old Mutual). I have seen the recent press about Holborn but do not know any more information than yourself at this point.
The above is obviously not what you wish to hear but, let me know when you are next planning on being in Dubai and we can organise to meet and I can try and help you in anyway that I can. Kind Regards ( name withheld as case is sub judice ) Wealth Manager

I too have problems with Holborn
Me too
Can anyone help me with some information about what this means. My aunt had financial advice from Joe Capaldi and I am trying to piece together what he did with her investments.
He invested her money in RL360 and also used her money towards funding a company in Dubai called The Dynamic Zone. Is there anyone out there who may be able to shed light on who I can inform to investigate the said financial advice he gave her.
From my experience: If you are not resident in the UAE the regulatory bodies are useless. See above.
Pension Life is as good as a balloon in a hurricane. If you can find a law firm in Dubai that will answer your questions, it would be the best route. Try posting on Trustpilot with a one star rating. Holborn will respond and try to wriggle off the hook.
Capaldi worked for them so they are liable as well. Wish you good luck.
