Hello Kraken Support Team,
Are your developers really working to enable verification tab for the new users? I've been waiting for really long time but verification for me is still disabled.
I know you don't provide ETA. But if you won't enable verification for the new users, can you please state this clearly?
If you won't enable verification, please tell us so. Maybe you don't want more customers, I don't know. This shouldn't be that hard.
Best.
Hi Haladay. We would suggest having a look to see if the option is available to you on your current accounts and if not trying opening a new one. We'll be sure to update everyone once this is fixed. Thank you for your patience.
I had the same problem for about a month ago.
Sent email to Kraken support and their suggested solution was to open new account.
I opened 3 more accounts but the problem still persisted.
But last friday I tried my luck and opened a new account again and voilà!
I could verify my account.
I used the same gadget and the same browser as the old accounts to open the new one.
Best of luck!
Hi cloudandrain. We're glad to hear that it's worked out for you now. Thank you for your patience.

Some time ago the company published an article on the blog to say about Revolut/TransferWise transfers that can't be used with Kraken. However, there are folks who are using Revolut without a problem. What is the situation currently? Is the article still up to date?
Thank you
Hi LeGaulois. If the third party payment processor using personalized IBANs in the specific client's name, it's okay to use them. Please inquire with your local branch to confirm that they're able to do this for you. You can read more on this

Now everything is fine. He can register without problems. Thank you!
Hi Bitblockchain. We're glad to hear it. Let us know if you need anything else.
I am happy to report that somehow after logging in once again to check up on the 'Get Verified' feature, when I clicked to go to the verification page, it actually loaded! I went through the ID Verification process without any problem and I am VERIFIED!
THANK YOU Kraken! 'Fixed', I guess, however for some reason I still feel like the backlog perhaps was the cause of the issue and not technically a 'bug', at any rate the 'feature' is no longer 'disabled' for my account at least, hopefully it is working or will be working for others as well. Site looks good! Very good performance. My only complaint now is that there needs to be ACH bank transfer capability eventually, currently only a wire transfer is allowed to send or receive USD funds which is not ideal because banks typically charge a big fee for wire transfers. Glad to now have Kraken as my crypto exchange, thanks again!
