-tax bill or tax return;

I know it's a (very) little bit offtopic, but still a valid question for freewallet:
Apparently, you force people to get notarized translations for their documents if they're not in English... I recon more people are living in non-english speaking countries than the other way around, so i guess most of the people that get ambushed by your hidden KYC procedure end up having to pay for notarized transations?
https://www.universal-translation-services.com/what-is-a-notarized-translation/We’ve made the process for calculating prices very simple. We take the number of pages and multiple them with $20, then add another $20 per document. The number of words per page has to be under two hundred words. If the page has more than two hundred words, then the rate per word will be $0.12 for the total number of words.
Now you know what is a notarized translation and how much does it cost. And you can rest assured that we sport the lowest rates on the market!
-bank card statement => my bank card statement is at least 3 pages long... 3*20 + 20 = $80
-excerpt from a household register => no idear what this is, no idear where i would get one... Apart from this, at least 1 page... 1*20+20 = $40
-tax bill or tax return => 10 pages in my country... 10*20+20 = $220
-utility bill payment receipt (water/gas/internet/phone and so on). .. At least 4 pages in my country... 4*20+20 = $100
Minimal notarised translation cost => $440
What if the amount of their funds you locked up is smaller than the cost of these translations? You just keep everything? I've got a good idear, stipulate that the notary public has to be a famous person that has appeared in at least 2 dozen films with a rotten tomato score of 8 (or higher), that way you get to keep everything all the time...
What if the documents are in a spouse's name? For example, our phonebill is in my wife's name, but you require documents to be in my name... Do I really need to cancell my phone contract and open a new one in my name before you'll unlock my funds?
By the way, i'm not active on any social media, so i guess i would be screwed anyway if i ever decided to use your service, right?
you are absolutely right in your opinion. All requested documents have nothing to do with this. Has the right to block funds only by court order and not at the request of services. and a request for all sorts of different documents is done only to ensure that verification is impossible and difficult and costly. So that customers eventually abandoned their funds. A freewallet could justify its fraudulent actions with an absurd KYC
