No photo identification

I’m in the UK. I have an old style paper drivers license with no photo.
My passport expired 2 years ago.
I have no computer or printer to create a paper wallet.
All my coins are in the mobile online wallet.
With all this talk about needing KYC and photo identification I’m worried my account will be closed and I lose the lot.
Do I need to urgently apply for a new passport or photo driving licence?

Firstly, you should relax bud. You own those coins, they are not going anywhere! They won’t be closing your account… You may need a take a little time to get your docs in order before you are able to fully transact, and this only becomes an issue if you have a large amount in your wallet. Either way, worst case is your coins are dormant until you can sort it.

how did you manage to get your ETN in the first place, with no Computer?

If it is all Mobile Miner rewards then that cant be enough to put you over the threshold of needing KYC surely?

Quite easily actually Colin.
I used a website called cryptomate with my mobile phone and purchased 100k ETN

M-kid I live a very simple life but passport and new driving licence are now on order.
Should be problem solved :slightly_smiling_face:
