Uphold help


Recommended Posts

I was wondering if anyone here could help me or guide me with my uphold account issue. 

 

Some background. For the past few years I lurk xrp chat every once in a while. I have also been purchasing xrp on coinbase and I created a wallet on the xrp ledger and transfer and store it there. 

 

Well with the price going up a decent amount, and coinbase holding off on xrp trading I figured I would open an account at another exchange so I could exchange some back to USD if needed.

 

So I opened the uphold account and did a trial send and exchange and everything seemed fine.

 

The trial amount was 2500 xrp and the ledger transaction was

Unfortunately I then sent the majority of my account there on transaction number

After sending majority of my xrp, when I log in at the top of my account I see “your account is under review” and all outgoing transactions are disabled.

 

I linked my checking account thinking maybe that’s it but it is still under review.

 

So I started looking at reviews for uphold.com online and see a lot of things that make me feel uneasy. 

 

At this point I would be fine if they just send the xrp back to my ledger account that I sent it from.

 

I’m looking for some guidance into this issue.

@SeriouslyStressed1 ... it's all good ... no worries ... 

I've had it happen with them numerous times. They get spooked when larger amounts are being tossed about. You may actually find comfort in that. 

I've copied the contents of one of their emails below. You should get it soon. 

I swear I've answered these a couple times now ...but, whatever. There was one exchange ... maybe Uphold? maybe Bitstamp ... that made me show bank transaction records leading to my XRP purchases in 2013! 

AML/KYC ... they're just being safe.

Expect the review to be done within hours of sufficiently answering their questions. I think my last review was about 30 minutes. But my first one was over 2 hours. 

Also note that Uphold limits withdraws to your bank account to $10K per day. So plan accordingly. 

Though they say the bank transfer will take 3 to 5 business days, mine have all cleared to my bank within 24 hours.
