A merchant reports waiting over 10 days for a response from Shopify’s specialized team after their issue was escalated. They’ve been opening daily support tickets without receiving updates.
Core Issue:
Unable to verify ID for Shopify Payments
Repeatedly receiving error: “Unable to verify ID. Please try again with a different documents”
Has attempted verification with multiple documents
One user offered to help escalate by requesting the store URL and collaboration code
Another user accused the merchant of using fake product reviews with stock photos (included image evidence)
This accusation suggests potential trust/compliance issues that may be blocking payment verification
Status: Unresolved. The merchant is awaiting collaboration code sharing via private message for potential escalation, though the fake review allegation may complicate resolution.

It’s been about a week and a half since I was told that my issue was escalated to a specialized team. Unfortunately, I haven’t heard back from anyone yet. I’ve been opening support tickets daily, but still no progress or clear updates.
Can someone from the Shopify team please check what’s happening? I really need this issue resolved — it’s affecting my store operations.
My issue is that i cant verify my id on shopify payments. I dont know why, i keep getting error message “Unable to verify ID. Please try again with a different documents” I’ve already tried with all of my documents
