BFI and BICSA: Specific Bank Details Surface as Donors Bypass US Sanctions to Fund Cuba
The discussion centers entirely on actionable, specific financial vectors for sending money to Cuba, bypassing US sanctions. Outlier insight from user Swinging6917 provided concrete details: account numbers and SWIFT codes for both the International Financial Bank (BFI) and the International Bank of Commerce (BICSA).
Users expressed significant frustration regarding funding, with 'sexywheat' noting the Progressive International donation link returned a 404 error. This failure led to accusations suggesting external pressure, likely linked to sanctions. Another key argument noted was the pledge by Spain, Brazil, and Mexico to increase aid amidst perceived US threats, cited by 'schizoidman'.
The practical consensus is that while the official donation channels appear blocked, the community is circulating direct, tangible banking instructions. The primary friction point is the mechanism for actual transfer, with the specifics provided by 'Swinging6917' becoming the most concrete point of focus.
