Short Narrative
Centrobill seems to have operational offices in Ukraine and Cyprus. According to LinkedIn, this is where most people associated with the Centrobill account are located in these jurisdictions.
On its website, Centrobill offers retail customers the to handle complaints about payments processed through the Payment Processor. This includes subscriptions to porn sites. An analysis by Trust Pilot reviews shows that Centrobill seems to handle the complaints with the wrong approach. This results in a scam rating of 1.5 stars.
We found complaints about Eurobill Tech Ltd, Centrobill‘s Cyprus-based company, and its aggressive (friendly-spoken) approach when trying to collect receivables. German lawyers advice to be careful with this scheme.
The payment processor apparently feels offended by the Orange Compliance Rating of PayRate42 and threatens the cyber rating agency with criminal charges. We believe that in view of the many negative reports on Trustpilot, a “Red Compliance” rating would also be fair. But high-risk payment processors live in a world of their own.
