Unfortunately, it is not possible to disable this verification.
Hello everyone,
I’m an amateur buyer and seller, I log in using my username created over 15 years ago, my bank details are verified since I pay and receive money, but the app asks me every time to enter a code received by SMS on my phone, in order to “verify my identity”, and this is very tedious:
How can I avoid this additional and unnecessary verification?
Thanks, have a good day.
