Title: Have anyone used Huobi Global aka HBG.com?
Post by: 100bitcoin on June 09, 2019, 09:30:42 AM
- Does it enforce KYC or mobile verification for Crypto to Crypto trade?

- Is there any daily withdrawal limit below which KYC or mobile verification is not required?

First, I think this is not the right section to ask suck a question regarding details about a cryptocurrency exchange. Second, the best to ask those questions is the site of HBG itself am sure they have their own FAQs somewhere.

Moved to the right section.

No. HBG will say everything great about them. I'm interested in people's experience.

I've used them once without issues.

I had to use them as a last resort though given the fact that no other exchange at the time was willing to swap IOST ERC20 tokens into mainnet ones. I was really expecting the worst, but everything was fine. The conversion process was seamless and I wasn't asked to verify myself.

Though, that's just my experience. They most likely have clauses in the ToS stating that they are allowed to ask for KYC at any given moment, so there is always a risk even if there is a no-KYC threshold.

Used Huobi a couple of times (yes, I'm actually one of those who's tried a lot of exchanges) mainly because I wanted to experience all these China-based operations. And yes, also because they gave away a bit of crypto just for a signup (Tron, I believe). Signed up when they were still Huobi Pro and still all in Chinese!

I only did one deposit (BTC) to get myself a small amount of something else (hint, China). I also just logged in now to confirm what I remember, there is no KYC at all, not even phone. You do need an email though.

The limits are updated here: https://huobiglobal.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000074411-Withdrawal-Limits

As magneto mentions though, if there IS an option for KYC, then be prepared to be asked at anytime. Me? I generally complete full kyc if I plan on using the exchange properly.

Huobi  blocked my account. Verification passed, now they require a transaction that was committed 200 days ago. The transaction was made with rahakott.io, which was closed. Support responds with machine text.
you can conclude whether it is worth contacting them or not.
