This is the first time for me to hear that they even are asking for driver's license and proof of billing! How could they do that? Have they verified your address already. Actually my address has not been verified because it was only lately that I learned the address has to be verified so it was only last week that I requested and they told me they will send with 2 to 5 days but up to now I have not received. I am not trying to withdraw my money yet but I am afraid once I withdraw I will have the same problem as yours. Oh that will drive me mad.

That is alarming! I think you have to send them an e-mail.

I am an active user of moneybooker til now. and I haven't been encountered yet about your problem. I already have 4 successful transactions in moneybooker. could the moneybooker that you've registered was a scam? I believe that moneybooker don't actually ask for that kind of requirements.

Well i am using moneybookers. But have not tried to withdraw money. But i did not know that they ask drivers license to withdraw money. If it is so then i will never be able to withdraw money from them. I even don't know how to ride a cycle. From where i can get a drivers license. Well i am not of any help but thanks to you i got some information about moneybookers. Have you seen their FAQ section for this? Also is your account a verified account?

well, not really driver's license but they need identification that we are really the account holder. so they asked for a a driver's license or a pssort, then a utility bill like a water bill or electrivity bill or a bank statement to see that we live in the address that they have on their records.. but what makes me not happy is that i have sent them the documents that they needed, and i sent it twoce, but i didnt get any response from them yet.. i dont know if they still have plans allowing me to withdraw my money!

Im getting mad too.I can't withdraw my money in my moneybookers account.Yes they asked proof of address.But my problems is my address is already verified but still can't withdraw the money.I tried many times to get the money in my account and they says its "INVALID AMOUNT" and my IP address is under investigating resulting misuse of my account.I tried to get the money for almost 1 month buts till not.This is horrible.
