10 days ago, in @TheInterceptBr, I showed how Nubank protected one of BP’s current directors. A guy who, like @agenciapublica revealed, created a hate forum + pic.twitter.com/QBMfVYdHrw

Other people started asking for recommendations on digital banks for their opening a new account, faced with the possibility of abandoning the “purple”. They recalled other problems faced by the company, such as card cloning and the difficulty in finding a solution.
I’m glad I no longer have Nubank after problems with card cloning that I had a few years ago, now I only use inter (pay on debit and large pix) and Mercado Pago (pay on credit and small pix) and Bradesco for deposits

Does anyone have a good alternative? @nubank ?
I have money invested there and at the end of nuinvest, is there any other cool bank for individuals that facilitates investment like this?

There are also posts asking for the company’s position after the post made by the co-founder, the allegations related to the former employee and the alleged relationship with the producer. Until the article closes, Nubank did not comment.
@nubank I am an old customer and this type of association with this historical revival company is a very serious fact. I would like a clear positioning of the company. Thanks
