To overcome these challenges, BBS employs the following strategies:
An elderly customer visited a BBS customer support center to complete his KYC. Upon presenting his driver's license, the agent noticed that the photo had not been updated in decades. "Excuse me, sir," the agent said with a smile, "I think you need to renew your license. You look much younger in this picture." The elderly customer chuckled and replied, "Well, it's a good picture, so I've kept it. It's like my younger, more handsome self."
Lesson: KYC can reveal amusing insights into customer behavior.
A customer called BBS support after experiencing difficulties completing his KYC. He explained that he had been asked to provide proof of address, but he was currently living in a tent. The support agent, taken aback, replied, "I'm sorry, but we need a physical address to verify your identity." Undeterred, the customer responded, "Well, how about I give you the GPS coordinates of my tent?"
Lesson: KYC can require creative solutions to accommodate diverse circumstances.
A KYC agent reviewing a customer's social media profile came across a photo of the customer holding a large stack of cash. The agent promptly contacted the customer to inquire about the source of the funds. The customer explained that it was his weekly poker winnings. The agent responded, "I see. So, you're a professional poker player?" The customer replied, "Not really. I'm just lucky."
Lesson: KYC can lead to unexpected discoveries and remind us of the importance of diligence.
