I totally understand that, but how come it could be related to money laundering if you are the ones that are paying me? It's getting paid for my work.
As an unrelated bystander, I think you missed a small detail: Bitpanda has to generally obey certain laws that are subsumed by topic "anti money laundering". These laws dictate bitpanda to *know* their customers. Even if you don't use bitpanda's trading services, you are still their "customer", so Bitpanda must obey the law also about you - they need to "know" you in the way the law demands.
I don't want to deposit any money, I just want to withdraw what I've earned for promoting your services. You can block every other function in my account. You can block the option to deposit FIAT / crypto, it's fine by me. I've really put in the effort to refer those 250+ users!
As an unrelated bystander, it strikes me as odd, that with 250+ referred users, your gain would not be enough to afford a passport.
What's the price for a passport in your country? (I can understand, if you don't want to name your country in a public forum.)
Not to mention that the Affiliate Manager for Bitpanda asked me PERSONALLY by email to keep advertising it a few months ago, so I've worked hard to advertise it.
"a few months ago" might have predated these laws, or maybe he just didn't know about your difficulties with verification.
Maybe, they find a solution to treat you as an affiliate rather than customer, but I wouldn't set too much hope on that. They'd likely need to "know" you as an affilitate, as well.
