Oh, I've only used it for bank transfers for like 1000+ EUR at a time. For smaller amounts yeah I dunno if it's good.

That said, I don't know what you mean by taking pictures and uploads. Is this some new security procedure?

EU/UK have more difficult KYC standards than the US which is basically "lol sure do whatever" because America has little interest in actually punishing financial crimes, and the market for these fintech/alternative solutions is largely moving towards using pictures and selfies via their mobile app because it's way easier to securely automate the KYC process when you do that. Sounds like they're having trouble with that.

It's generally pretty good, but companies are doing various things to 1) increase their conversion rate 2) make it harder for scammers to take a shotgun approach by automating creation of fake accounts. So instead of dropping all the KYC requirements on people in a big page of text they'll give it to you piecemeal as you sign up. In some cases stuff only kicks in once you've moved 1k USD equivalent or something. Also requiring a small initial deposit stops people from trying to make tons of fake accounts. Transferwise is basically exclusively made to do cross-border transactions though so don't try it for anything else.
