Re: ANN [MCO] MONACO #1 Cryptocurrency Payments Card

Why after registered and waiting few months for card now Monaco app on Android want acces to:
- Contacts (all cell number from my contact list)
- pictures, multimedia, FILES, outside memory

?? Why reason to anybody give acces to all cell numbers from phone ? Maybe give them numbers to other people with cryptocuriences even they dont want any MCO card ? Its joke ?
Everybody make KYC so WTF ?
And multimedia and files ? all pictures ?
They can tell "we dont really use all of them" but I dont care and or dont belive.
They dont need this data after all people make KYC already.

And afterall waiting year-few months with KYC done is blackmail "give us all from your phone or you cant update your Monaco app" Huh

And if someone dont update app even if future they send cards he dont take card because have not updated app and maybe cant finish process take card ??
Or maybe better buy clean total empty (nothing files, media, contacts, separate mail only for MCO) used phone and install on them again Monaco app and confirm acces all what app demand ?
many years waiting and nobody have card.
Its scam ?

No ones forcing you to use the app. Just another reason for someone to attempt to fud to call it scam. No one believes its scam anymore. Got far too much proof.

Visa approval. Beta app out in the wild. They have released proof of working cards. Not just demo card.

If you want to use the card you have to use the App. And his concerns are genuine and well called for. Monaco has no business with your personal data and doesn't need it for the services that it provides.

Calling this FUD is just plain ignorance, please go back to playing Fortnite.

Lol. Really. There are many apps that ask for certain rights and details. Monaco ain't any different. You want to use their app. Their card. Then you agree to their terms and conditions. Dont like it. Cool then dont use it.

It needs access to contacts more than likely for when you link it to your bank account. My bank account app has the same permissions. So when I send money etc by mobile number it can pull it from the contacts.

Bunch of whiners. All you'll do is delay it further for no good reason if you want them to bow down to your every whim and need.

No, it does not need access to contacts. And my bank account app doesn't have those kinds of permissions and functions just fine. In either case, those things should be optional and not mandatory. If people want to be able to send money to phone numbers they can choose to share, but they should not be required to. Especially in the wake of the current FB/CA scandals.

Just because you apparently need "OMGMOON" now to pay your bills doesn't mean the company should be making obvious mistakes. And changing the privacy policy doesn't take any significant amount of time and hence your (greed driven) argument is completely irrelevant anyways.
