Share Your Experience
From Phantom
An important goal of the phantom withdrawals website is to allow customers involved in disputes to document their experiences, in order to help others in the same situation, and to provide case studies and quantitative data for researchers working in the field of banking security. You are strongly encouraged to share your own experience!
There are several things you might consider doing:
- Provide details of your own dispute (either in progress or completed), for addition to our case files
- Chat on our discussion forums
- Contact the site maintainer directly
Instructions on how to do these are below.
Add your own Case
It's really easy to make a page on the phantom withdrawal site describing your experiences, whether you have IT skills or not. Choose one of the following three paths:
- Basic Case Submission. If you have very little experience of computers at all, and are uncomfortable even typing website addresses into the address bar at the top of a browser, go to the Basic Case Submission page, and follow the really simple instructions.
- Standard Case Submission. If you are happy writing emails, using bulletin boards and surfing the web, then you should be fine to add your case details too. Follow our Step-by-Step Case Submission Guide
- Experienced Users. If you are used to web collaboration software, it should be no trouble for you to add your own case using the Wiki interface. Just be sure to read the Case Style Guide beforehand for information on what to include.
Visit our Discussion Forums
Welcome to the discussion forums. These are currently implemented as a set of Quicktopic single-thread bulletin boards, which are open to posting by all. Whilst the site remains relatively new, it may be preferable to contact the maintainer, rather than waiting for a response to a post on the forum. If the forums do become particularly popular, a more sophisticated forum system may replace the current forums.
The topics are:
- Discuss Your own phantom withdrawal experiences
- Phantom withdrawals documented on site
- Complaining to and interacting with banks
- Links to more resources and information
Selected Opinions on Phantom Withdrawals
Note: I try to keep all the links on this site up to date and working, but occasionally other sites completely remove information rather than moving it. If you find a link that doesn't work, try looking up the link on the web archive at http://www.archive.org
