Doing KYC as soon as you open new account..do you think it's smart?

Sat Apr 29, 2017 6:28 am

Howdie doodie,

While setting up some new books today for a mate I got thinking. Do you think it's smart that as soon as we open a book we get the account verified straight away? For me it's a lot easier just to do it all at once and obviously for me mate to only have to provide docs one time.

But mugs surely don't verify as soon as they open a new account. Surely only when they go to make a withdrawal and are prompted to verify.

Anyway, just curious if anyone has opinions on this.

FYI I usually open accounts and then let them sit for a month or so before depositing. I then mug roll over the bonus and then get to work. If it's with a book I know is a shithouse from the get go well then I don't bother playing nice and get the gloves out asap for the first round knock out, only to be disqualified before round two even starts!

It depends on different things.
When i expect to deposit small amount and to test, and probably going busto, then i dont bother
But when im doing large deposits then i probably put attention to the KYC

Also it depends on bookie layout. If i have to e-mail them documents, then i will be more passive side, but if bookie has tool to upload directly to their site then i use it

Is strategical point of new i dont see any edge if u do KYC right away. U get limited either way, if u hit them

IT does not guarantee anything at all. They may ask additional selfies later on...

will agree with you, when you deposit all good but when want to withdraw appears the ID problem  >:(
