As a Doctor and professional business person I am strongly advising against using tide. They require wang more information than is necessary and then refuse to erase it all off their records. They refuse to talk on phone so if you had any emergencies or account freezes or computer lock downs you would not be able to get in touch with them. After providing all my information they closed down my account application without any explanation.
They require face recognition which is something not even border controls require.
They keep asking for info of which I have passports, tax records and other bank accounts going for 24 years I own a house, I have utility bills and 4 other bank accounts with a 24 year history of clear records and yet they still request more and more data.
I explained that I am setting up a new business but have not generated income yet and they wanted contracts to prove I was getting money and I explained I needed the bank first and it’s a new business and that I need to set up then look for clients.
I have 4 other bank accounts and have never had this much hassle but now they have kept my data and I feel they almost wanted data collection only. I am suspicious now. With all fraud these days please do not go with these guys.
