Verification at GateHub

[Snehasish Kar]

Hi,

I am being asked to verify my account in GateHub for buying and selling ripple using Bitcoin Gateway. For this, I have to provide a scanned copy of my international passport and one month's statement from my bank account. Should I provide them the document? Is it safe? I am hesitating since this is my first time in cryptocurrency and I don't know much about these companies. Also, passport is a very important document for identity.

Thanks

I think the majority of this community has a gatehub wallet, and are very professional. They are also on this forum answering questions and solving any problem you might encounter.

I'm verified with Gatehub. I sent a scan of my ID and bank statement (with some private info blacked out). It took about 2-3 days to get verified, but the Gatehub crew are pretty fast so wouldn't be surprised if you get verified before that. As far as trust and security, I trust Gatehub more than any other exchange out there. I highly recommend them.

May be they could solve another problem with acceptance of cyrillic docs? I wrote about it few days ago on this forum:

One little problem. It is not so easy to prove your identity on Gatehub. They require a bunch of docs, including utility bill. This fact itself is crazy enough. But this claim even more frustrating: "Please note that only documents written in Latin letters are supported". I've no idea, how can I get a copy of my utility bill, or same kind of doc, written in Latin letters.

Frankly, it looks to me like a world segregation: a "privileged Latin-alphabet world" and "meh... everyone else".

Did you send a scan of your international passport? Also, Could you please elaborate which info did you black out?

Yes I sent a high quality scan of my passport. I blacked out some transactions in my statements.
