Was in the middle of a hand yesterday when I was suddenly logged off with a message my account has been blocked. Immediately before this happened I recieved an email from Global stating I needed to verify my identity for a "routine security check." I followed the instructions a quickly sent the documents they requested. Below is my exchange with them in the Zendesk. This doesnt make sense and I have never requested a cashout.. I'm a beginner so I'm still learning how to build a bankroll. Has this happened to anyone else.. My documents meet all the specified requirements and I am positive I have submitted them correctly.. I know it has only been 12 hours but I am very concerned due to the fact that they sent an email saying I had been verified and then turned around and said to disregard that email and they had to send it to a different department? Weird. Please help

Hello Gavin. I have followed the link and submitted the documentation concerning my identity. I have also attached a copy of my bank statement which does meet all of the requirements which were outlined in your email. I hope this matter can be resolved quickly as my account has been blocked.*
Please let me know if there is any other information you may need from me to verify my identity and unblock my account as well as process any future cash out requests.

Thanks

Has my account been blocked due to the "routine security check" or is there another issue ? It was my understanding that I would have to verify my identity before I could cash out; however, I have never requested a cash out.

Hi Shania,

I was hopeful this process would not take this long especially considering my account was blocked without warning. It was my understanding that accounts would only have to be verified before they could cash out any sweeps and I have not submitted a cash out request. I do not understand how it could take this long to look at my documents and confirm my identity. Please advise if there is anything I could clarify or if it would be useful If i sent different documents. I am willing to help verify my identity in any way I can and I am hopeful this process will not take much longer. Thanks

It has been almost 72 hours since I was blocked and followed the instructions and sent all of the documents they asked for. I have followed up a couple times and they respond with "the relevant team is still checking you account." How long does it usually take to get verified? Has any one else ever been blocked and then asked to verify thier identity? I know you have to verify your identity to cash out but like I said before, I have never requested a cash out. Someone help me please!

Thank you for your cooperation. This has been resolved.

People get upset especially the site moderators when you post the same problem in multiple threads, then make your own thread on the same topic. Calm down, you should get an answer soon.

Hi, Katy. Apologies for the inconvenience. I will have this checked. For the meantime, please refrain from creating multiple threads and just refer to this one:
