Experience with a no-KYC BTC-funded debit card service (Goblin Cards)?

Yes, will report those details, happy to share.

The communication so far over Simplex has been good, the card was posted today, and I have the Fedex tracking details.  Should arrive in a week or so I guess.

Hi,
I haven’t used Goblin Cards personally, but I’d be cautious with any crypto debit card that claims no KYC and high limits. Usually, cards without a clear issuing bank, card network, or jurisdiction can be risky — they might work for a while but could get shut down or freeze balances.
I’d suggest checking if anyone on other forums or crypto communities has verified long-term experiences. Also, small test amounts first are usually safer.
Curious to hear if anyone here actually used it and how reliable it was.

The card arrived today.  It came with a letter which said to visit a link, which lead to a bunch of questions (name etc).  I contacted support on Simplex and was told that they fill in that part.  So I just confirmed my email (for 2FA) and the last 4 numbers of the card.

The card is Mastercard and there is no name - just a card number and valid-to.  It has security chip / contactless, and looks otherwise like a regular card.

Awaiting next steps from support.

Thanks for the update - can you tell me how long the card is valid for and if you have to pay the same amount again after that if you want to continue using it or do you have to order a new one? Regarding ATM usage, even though they say the fee is 0%, watch out for what will be shown on the screen if you withdraw cash, because some banks offer automatic conversion, which they charge a lot of money for.
