Moreover, some users complain that it’s the second time their accounts have been frozen in the past two weeks. As the pressure grew, the HKMA directed the online bank to respond accurately to all its users and ensure that customers’ concerns were handled properly.
According to the local news report, Mox Bank said the accounts are currently under review while protecting customer rights.
“Customers will continue to be able to use the account after the review is complete. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused to affected customers, and thank all customers for their patience and understanding… Also, this incident has nothing to do with data breaches.”
