Binance ended my licensed P2P business over "account sharing" with my husband. Now the EU has ended Binance.

I was a P2P Pro Merchant in Poland. Registered VASP, absolutely tax compliant, 4+ years on Binance, 48,000+ completed trades, 98%+ constructive feedback, monthly volume as much as 7 figures in PLN. On April 13 Binance terminated my account. The one cause given: "violation of Phrases of Use." No clause. No rationalization. Over the subsequent 32 days I requested more than 15 totally different help brokers to only tell me which term I violated. Every single one refused.

My husband's personal account acquired terminated as nicely, and his a minimum of got here with a cause: Account Sharing.

So right here's our "crime." We're married. His fingerprint is on my telephone and mine is on his. When his battery died he'd log in on my telephone, when mine died I used his. We know one another's passwords, our money is collectively, we don't disguise anything from each other besides perhaps birthday presents. That's not fraud. That's a traditional marriage. Binance's danger system apparently can't inform the difference between criminals sharing accounts and a spouse and husband sharing a telephone.

And the way rigorously was my case reviewed? At 11:31 UTC an escalations agent wrote to me, phrase for word: "we apply a diligent and cautious strategy, completely analyzing each case." My account was terminated the same day at 13:58 UTC. Two and a half hours of "thorough examination" to erase a Four-year enterprise. No one asked me for a single doc. Similar day, one agent asked me if I needed to attraction whereas another informed me no attraction channel exists. They couldn't even agree on that. Humorous factor: as soon as before, the identical native workforce restricted my account "until 2030" by mistake, and Binance International overturned it inside 24 hours. So I know precisely what their local staff's accuracy seems to be like.

What did they really lose? Not simply volume. In 4 years as a service provider I ended a whole lot of scam attempts alone orders. Aged individuals, individuals who clearly had a scammer on the telephone with them teaching them by way of the cost, I cancelled these orders and informed them what was occurring as an alternative of taking their money. When someone paid after an order was already cancelled, I sent the cash again, every time, even when no one would have ever recognized. I used to be precisely the type of service provider a P2P platform is meant to want. Terminated over a shared telephone, with no attraction.

Now the karma part. Three months after they threw me out for "compliance" causes they refused to name, Binance is gone from the Play Retailer throughout the EU and its providers are shutting down for European customers, because they never managed to get a MiCA license. They demanded good, unexplained compliance from a small licensed merchant in Poland while failing to remain compliant on a whole continent.

I don't anticipate Binance to care. I simply need this on the report. For those who're a service provider studying this: your stats won't shield you, your suggestions won't shield you, your license won't shield you. You're one algorithm flag away from being nothing to them, and there's no one to talk to when it occurs.

And this wasn't just me. Whoever runs compliance for Binance Poland: I watched what your selections did to the PLN market. Before July 1 there were moments when solely 2 merchants have been online on all the PLN P2P market. On Bybit and Bitget, over 100. That wasn't regulation doing that, MiCA hit every trade the identical. That was you, clearing out your personal verified, licensed, tax-paying retailers one by one until the order e-book was a ghost town, while your rivals stored theirs. A compliance department exists to maintain the business protected AND alive. You have been getting paid to make it higher, to not make it worse. You didn't shield the PLN market from danger. You protected it from present.
