I’m here to provide a follow-up on my situation with sending a wire transfer as a way of payment. Quick reminder: after doing so there was a request from QSC team for additional details such as full legal name, DOB, nationality and so on. I found it to be very strange and decided not to proceed with the transfer completion.
First thing first, my apologies to QSC and his team for suspecting a possibility of foul play. There was none and it was my god damn bank that did this to me. QSC were very helpful and accommodating.
Secondly, I would strongly advise not to use bank transfers as it can end up in this situation, with your money stuck somewhere up to a month (not to mention wasted transfer fees).
That’s about it. Peace.
