So okpay was just bought by money polo. Now its seems that they are asking all okpay users to get verified again?? This sounds a little bit crazy! Imagine the work involved!
Was looking for a official thread about it in bitcointalk but could not find any clue. As most members confirmed that they have been acquired by some other company and the rule is for everyone, if you want to use their service you have to comply with the re-verification, I am afraid.
That's seriously funny. I got verified years back and now again to go through all the documents and upload them is such a pain. It's good that their process takes less than 2-3 days for verification else Payza took me over a week to get verified. They also don't charge back transactions.
My Okpay account has now been verified. I went to Yobit.net and tried to send a very low amount to my okpay. Been pending since then. Looks like they have to get verified to!
Oh no... Not yobit again. Pending isn't a good sign at all, they rarely ever process pending requests. Plus, they should already be OKPay verified in the first place because you can only send like 400 EUR a month without getting limited on OKPay if you're unverified, i think.
I've got some spare change on OKPay at the moment and they're asking me to upload my docs, so i'm sure that this new requirement is applicable to everyone. I'm surprised too that nobody else has complained yet.
Now that OKPay is strict on KYC though, nobody seems to want to use them anymore because it is no longer anonymous and transactions will probably more reversible than before. There is also a higher chance that your account will get frozen imo.
Isn't it against their policy and terms to chargeback transactions. If for so many years they have been following the same, there is no reason for them to start this now.
