I have the same experience lately but with ISA`s and normal trading accounts. It took me 3 month to remove my money from Barclays recently. It like the song says you can check in anytime you want but you may never leave! Try localbitcoins.com much easier to deal with a real person then some faceless institution who will misuse your identity.

Thank you. Oh dear.At my age have I got 3 months ? The only difference perhaps ,with respect,is that there wasn't the urgency with withdrawing from Barclays,although it is unacceptably long,as the present frenzied activity around cryptos. I mean to lose the amount that bitcoin has risen in the past 3 months through not being able to verify an account and place a buy order would be very substantial. Best regards Ivor.
Hello franco - On reflection my implying that your experience with Barclays was not as bad as the difficulty I'm experiencing with Crypto Exchanges was thoughtless.I realise that to wait 3 months to withdraw your money from your bank could mean the loss of a dream house purchase for instance. I hope you sought and got compensation.My apologies.Ivor.
