oh wait a second , i havent heard any stories of people getting their money back or anyone arrested after frauding epassporte members..
back at ya big guy. I was frauded and I at least got some of the money back. Just like all online fraud I suspect a very small percentage of people are arrested. For me and plenty of others the benefits of using epassporte far out way the negatives. Don't like it? Don't use their service.

A request for ID (which I have already complied with) is one thing, but a request for my bank statement from someone who is holding my money (not vice-versa) seems peculiar at best.

Don't get me wrong. I find it highly plausible that fraud is up when the economy is down. Having gone through the joys of billing through Globill and being an iBill affiliate, however, I don't believe that billing companies always just take their fee and hand over my funds.

I'm guessing from your 2007 reg date that maybe you are just really new to this, but the slightest bit of either history or current events shows that caution with financial institutions is just practical sense.
Funny how you completely avoided the part of your intial post I responded to and instead bring up my gfy registration date instead. Just for the record your guess is way off but feel free to reply with a comment about my post count as that is always a winner here.

I don't even disagree that many of these account verification procedures seem redundant but to suggest that they are some how designed to lock up peoples accounts so epassporte can keep their money is absurd.

This has gone out to all accounts if you have already supplied ID should you have had to enter it again? No, but its on all accounts and I apologize for wasting a couple of minutes of your time, I know it annoying but thats the way it is. It will be on all new accounts as well.

We try to be as compliant as possible so we can be here for the long run.

About the documents:
Smokey I have told you on ICQ after you raised the question the last time that all documents can only be viewed by trusted staff located in the US.
I have been with ePassporte almost 4 years and I have access to NO information on accounts because I work remotely. We take the privacy and security of our Card Holders and their information very serious.

ePassporte have been in business for 6-7 years now while others have come and gone, we plan on being in business for many more years to come this is why we are asking for the this information so we comply with rules and regulations where we operate.

If anyone have questions about this or anything else about their account please email me at [email protected]

Well said Michael.
