Verification troubles on CoinBase.com?

[kavin2468]

Hey guys...first post here before I can play with the big boys.

I recently bought my first few bitcoins from coinbase (locked in an 830 price for 4 coins woo) and have yet to receive them but I have been working toward instant purchase abilities. I don't mind sacrificing some anonymity (actually...a LOT of it) in order to avoid this 4-5 days wait nonsense. The problem is that I recently moved (once a few months ago, and once a few months before that) and no matter which address I use I keep getting rejected! I read that it could be simply because I have not been on one spot for long enough, but this blows since it really seems to be the easiest way. Is anyone else having verification problems?

If you have read your credit report recently you will have the answer to there questions.

I am very sure that I am answering the questions correctly, I think it moreso has to do with the address I provided since the questions come up with any address I use as long as my name and last 4 social are there.

Took me a few different attempts to verify. Keep at it, eventually it'll go through.

@Turm1n - if you don't mind me asking, what did you change for it to work? Was it a change in the address format or something (like writing ST instead of Street)?

Lol.. a VC backed company like coinbase and they cant hire proper programmers.. I tried using the verification twice one for myself and a separate account for my friend (bitcoin noob). In both instances we answered all the questions correctly and failed the validation. The linking of bank accounts is a fail as well. I called my bank to verify and they said everything was clean on my end not sure why it rejected the request.

Try a cash transaction from a site like localbitcoins it's way faster anyways. Just meet in a public place and you should be fine.

I would but the price differences are substantial! I guess its a premium for fast delivery and all that but last time I looked it was like a $100-$200 difference in price.

Another newb here!  I actually registered a while back and never posted.

Anyway, I had trouble getting verified at Coinbase too.  It really shocked me the questions that were asked for level 2 verification.  I had to remember the year of a truck I had over 2 decades ago among several vehicles.

I would up searching for images on google to match the body style I remembered to the correct year.
