YOUR FACE IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM REPEATEDLY FAILS,
ALSO i know how many retry you give 1 THATS IT 1 CHANGE BEFORE YOU HAVE TO RE AUTH ID FACE MOBILE CHECK WHAT A WATE OF TIME AND PRIVACY
why dont you give aleast 3 -5 attempts to get it right before doing the reauthorize mobile id check paper please thing
YOUR FACE IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM REPEATEDLY FAILS, CAUSING EXTREME FRUSTRATION WHEN ACCESSING MY ACCOUNT AND FUNDS.
HERE ARE THE CORE TRUST AND ACCESSIBILITY POINTS REGARDING YOUR SECURITY PROTOCOLS:
RECURRING AUTHENTICATION FAILURES: The facial recognition and AI verification systems consistently fail for infrequent users, preventing seamless account access despite setting the browser and device as trusted previously.[1]
EXCESSIVE VERIFICATION BURDEN: Requiring repetitive manual identity submissions—such as photo IDs and utility bills—creates an unreasonable barrier compared to industry standards on alternative investment platforms.[2]
PRIVACY AND DATA CONCERNS: Continuous demands for biometric and personal documentation raise serious concerns regarding user data handling, intrusiveness, and retention practices.[3]
ACCOUNTABILITY AND SUPPORT DELAYS: Delayed or unresponsive customer support channels during locked-out states effectively restrict access to personal financial assets, leading to severe customer dissatisfaction.[4]

Unprompted review
Reply from Trading 212
We regret to hear about your experience.
We’ve already replied to your previous review, but in case you haven’t seen our response, we’ll address the same concerns here as well.
A trusted device can lose that status in certain situations, such as after clearing cookies or browsing data, after using a VPN, after installing certain browser extensions, or after using Incognito mode. When that happens, the device may be recognised as new, and a selfie check can be requested again. This is an additional security measure designed to help prevent unauthorised access to the account.
Poor lighting, blur, reflections, camera quality, or the face not being fully visible can prevent a selfie from being accepted. If that happens, an alternative option, such as scanning a QR code with your phone’s native camera, may be available, allowing you to capture a clearer image and complete the verification more smoothly.
On a side note, additional documents can also sometimes be requested after an account has already been verified. This forms part of standard KYC and risk-management requirements and may include documents such as proof of address or a renewed identity document once the previous one has expired.
We also understand the privacy concerns around these checks. All personal data provided by our clients is kept confidential and handled in accordance with the latest GDPR requirements. We do not share personal information with third parties outside the circumstances permitted or required by law.
We’ve located your case and provided more detailed information addressing your concerns, along with guidance on how to complete the verification successfully.
