''free cash service"
ATM's spout the same but each time I take £20 out my bank balance goes down by £20

Their website is very evasive as to where the money comes from, but if the comments in this youtube video are correct https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9sp9NZYWwY they're matched betting gnomers, which means they want your ID to open accounts with bookies and take advantage of bookies offers.
There are arguments about whether gnoming is fraud, technically it probably is, as it involves using someone else's identity for financial gain, so I would be very wary of letting my ID be used for this. But I'm not a lawyer. See https://betotg.com/academy/gnoming-multiple-accounts/0 -
Whatever it is stay away and don't sign up.

Have heard of Stratsol before.
The OP saw them on Facebook!
They mention about earning free cash but the website does not say how.
Their website is only 118 days old.
A simple web check showed this:-

Two sayings I always keep in mind are:-
1. There is no such thing as a free lunch.
2. If it looks too good to be true you do not understand the risks.0 -

I suspect you are correct. On the https://www.stratsolsupport.co.uk site, their contact email is shown as docs@evost.co.uk
On the evost.co.uk site it claims to be a "A rapidly growing investment fund focused on the betting markets."

That's an excellent ROI by comparison........"For every complicated problem, there is always a simple, wrong answer"0 -

Stratsol is not a scam as already been said above use other peoples I'd for matched betting.Lots of the people they recruit are young woman who obviously see it as easy money.Could do it themselves but statsol make out it's too dificult.Use pre paid cards to open the accounts and get the client to aend in their images of id for the verification purposes.0
