This is ultimately why a lot of content creators stay on Twitter. Viral on Twitter vs viral on Bluesky. Pound for pound, engagement is easier on Bluesky, but the reach on Twitter is huge. I’ll update this thread in a day

Per Reddit: Steam adult developer in the UK is sitting on a USD equivalent of six figures, can't find a bank to take his money because the developer creates adult games
Tried 36+ banks, no luck.
I develop adult video games on Steam. I can't find a bank that will actually let me withdraw my money from Steam. Can I get some advice?
Game has sold quite well on Steam. I've got almost £90,000 ready to withdraw after Steam's cut + VAT taken off.
However, it's been 2 months now and I can't find ANY hank in tha lIV whn will Int ma waithdrai mu mannu fram
You tried 11. Just go in branch across every bank you can find, and check their response.

I've tried a whole handful more. I think it was 36+ at the last count, but l've left my folder at my accountant's today so I'm trying to remember a list off the top of my head.
I was hoping somebody on here could signpost
Nationwide
Halifax
Barclays
Lloyds
RBS
It always comes down to, "Where did you get this money from?"
"It's coming from games I sell on Steam."
"Can we see the store page?"

Rejected by HSBC too. Sorry, I really should update the original post to include all the ones people suggest.
I've basically asked every major high street bank from Halifax to RBS to Lloyds TSB; AND every major phone banking app like Revolut/Monzo etc.

If you live in these states make damn sure to not give a second of peace to them, make their phones ring and their mailboxes bloat daily.

What the hell am I supposed to do? I've pretty much exhausted the whole banking system. I just want to be able to be paid for products I've sold.

I had to actually go for a face-to-face assessment in HSBC for my business account. That was a really awkward meeting Total_Scratch8198

There were around 260 banks on UK and 900 payment institutions.

You tried 11. Just go in branch across every bank you can find, and check their response.

Wanting to focus more on your local area or your State is just as good as wanting to try and turn things around in Congress. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a bad actor with a malicious goal in mind.

Granted I should mention there's a lot of people who aren't running for re-election next year.

If you, or someone you know, has had thoughts about running for ANY kind of office, then please do it.

I'm serious. Mid-terms are coming up and it's better to throw your hat in early than too late.

And I cannot stress this enough, ALL electable positions matter.

This is "debanking", and its a problem that has plagued sex workers for decades. It isnt right when its targetting sex workers and its not right when its targetting game devs and creators either.

Give paypros and your givt reps your grievances and demand that debanking of adult content stop

There's a UK adult games creator on reddit who's been rejected from 36(!) and counting UK banks and unable to process the earned £90,000. Debanking for adult creators continues to be a real threat.

Denmark wants to ban social media for anyone under 15. The rest of the EU isn't biting (EU is 13+ to use social media). It's not clear how Denmark would accomplish this goal. Age verification measures?
