Saatchi has switched to a new 'hyperwallet' payout system. It stinks.

Rubbish customer service and questionable security (eg they asked me to confirm I had attempted to make changes to my online information, when I hadn't). They also request sensitive personal data from non US residents, and refuse to forward funds owed from sales unless this information is provided. As the former victim of identity fraud, no way will I provide such information online to some - from my point of view - unknown and untested third party. Also, there is no reason I can see for requiring this information.

Saatchi should rightly pay tax on its income in the US; those outside should make their own arrangements.

It has nothing to do with Saatchiart. Bottom line: if you are a non-US artist thinking of selling through Saatchiart, my advice is stay well away, and if you are already a Saatchiart artist, get out now.

User's recommendation: Stay well away from Saatchiart.com.

Hello I have had exactly same issues. I have to fill in the W8Ben tax form yet they say it is 'wrong' every time I send it. Is there a trading standards office this can go to ?

Totally agree just got done by them too. Will withdraw my listings with them and warn my network.
