Both of these companies haven't got a cooking clue when it comes to ID verification for KYC, have bungled it horrendously. I've spent weeks trying to go through the processes and jumping through hoops to verify myself with them. To add insult to injury, their support staff are completely incompetent and negligent lumps. Jeebus, is it really so hard to get good help these days? Why do Support staff go AWOL in the middle of resolving an issue, have to be chased up only to offer pathetic, half-baked excuses and ask you to repeat steps because they dropped the ball?
At any rate, both of these companies missed the opportunity to process nearly $18 000 USD, fourteen hours ago (when the markets were panic-selling), as a consequence. So, if anyone knows of a decent exchange, where the Support staff are actually responsive and capable of handling issues, I'm open to suggestions.
I think the issue is mostly that I'm dealing with disaffected corporate grunt types living the 08:00-17:00 life: so ground down by the malaise of the centralised hierarchical power structure that is, at base/heart, a private dictatorship. There's no passion for the job, no drive to get it done, no pride in one's work or joy in making sure the customer gets good service, is happy and feels that something positive has been done or is being done. Instead, the objective becomes to merely survive until the end of the day while making as little effort as possible to not get in trouble by the time 16:55 rolls around and one can start packing it in to head for home, too drained and uninspired for pursuing a personal/private life and hobbies. Chasing that piece of paper that shows you how much transferable debt you've accrued under what Sir Gerard the First refers to as "democratic slavery" is soul-destroying. Yet this is what so many people are used to, assume to be the normal/natural way of things. It's so programmed into them that the mere act of asking them, "Why is this so?", stumps them, is anathema to them and marks the asker (in their minds) as "foolish", "idealistic", "socialist" or "crazy". To them, it is this way because it just is (always has been and always will be, as far as they know). They can't go further than that. (And people wonder why I have no desire to go back to that debasement of my soul and talents, that subjugation to corporate bullshit that pursues not the productive end result but that of following the prescribed steps necessary to obtain credit. I'd rather bang my head against a wall, for all the good it does.)
These are the people who most need liberation, but the very people who most ardently and stringently fight it (because they see it as "against the rules".) I pity you pencil-pusher fools, so restricted and hampered by your strictures and regulations that impair you, weigh you down, stifle you and generally interfere with or annihilate your energy in your ability to enjoy your jobs (which are mostly mindless drudgery and corporate BS) and/or be effective at them.
Morpheus: The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you’re inside, you look around. What do you see? Business people, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system, and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system that they will fight to protect it. Were you listening to me, Neo, or were you looking at the woman in the red dress?
