InterBank FX - Funding with VISA

[NCcsS]

Hi,

I've just financed a new mini account with VISA in InterBank FX.
They only allow entry to the account when the funding is completed.

When using my VISA and sending the money I received an email from them saying that my funding will only be accepted when I send them a copy of the front and back of my VISA.

Can it be the usual procedure for everyone? I really don't like this process and they should at least advise it before you've payed!

Anybody can confirm this and anybody ahd problems?

Thank you for your answers, this forum is so helpfull and full of great men and women!

If I remember right they ask that for identifiion purposes (they also wanted my drivers license). They didn't ask me for a copy of the back of my credit card, though.

What I did was copy the front of my own card and blotted out all but the last digit of the account number, leaving only my name along with the expiration date visible.

If I were you I'd try sending it the way I did. . .giving them as little info as you can but still leaving it where they could identify you.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

I have only funded a new mini account with VISA in InterBank FX.
They only allow access to the account when the funding is finished.

After using my VISA and sending the funds I received an email from them saying that my funding is only going to be approved if I send them a copy of the front and rear of my VISA.

Can it be the customary procedure for everyone? I truly don't like this procedure and they should at least advise it until you have payed!

Anybody can confirm that and anybody ahd problems?

Hi,
this really is a new requirement at InterbankFx for verifiion functions. On your email it should have been said to block out all the numbers in your credit card to the front of the card, except the last 4. Also, to block out all the numbers in the back of your credit card. This is probably to confirm that your signature.

Hello,

I've just funded a new mini account with VISA at InterBank FX.
They simply allow entry to the account once the funding is completed.

After using my VISA and sending the money I got a email from them saying that my funding will only be recognized if I send them a copy of the front and back of my VISA.

Can it be the usual procedure for everyone? I truly don't like this procedure and they should at least advise it before you have payed!

Anybody can confirm that and and/or anybody ahd issues?

Thanks for your answers, this forum is so helpfull and filled with great people!

My buddy had to do same thing (and he did it). Forex.com I had to send driver's liscense.

Yes I have needed to try it, you simply block out some of the numbers, it's not a big thing.

Any commendable financial business will verify your identity through over 1 avenue. That's how you know you are dealing with untrustworthy amateurs in any financial company when it's easy to obtain an account. I find reassuring to know I'm dealing with professionals.

I understand , but I think it's more efficient to have them confirm that your information through online means instead of have you ever physically submit stuff

I'm fairly sure the actual documentation of identity is one of those heaps of new requirements for financial institutions demanded by the US PATRIOT Act.
