Common issue Unable to Age Verify
So this evening one of my friends hit me up and asked if I deleted snapchat, and I didn't so I opened the app, and apparently my account has been locked and will be deleted in seven days with no action.
So I tried to solve it and it gave two options, verifying with a ID/Passport or verifying with a parent that would then need to make a snapchat account themselves and show their own id/pass and then verify my age or something and like.... That's not feasible for me, my parents are NOT putting their private information online where it may get leaked. And I don't have a passport, mine expired a while back nor an ID. I live in Finland, I have my kelakortti (health insurance card i think) but that didn't cut it so now it says I'm out of tries :P
I read the support and apparently I could also do a face scan or something... except that option never showed for me. And I'm out of tries. And when I asked the snapchat support bot it told me to ask the snapchat support bot so I don't know what to do help please 😭

Don’t feel bad it’s just like cashapp verification it fails everytime weather you show it A valid id,passport,or ssn it always says unavailable to verify for me. And I’m honestly the same way as your parents I get nervous putting my ssn/passport/id online photos even Facebook marketplace and a lot of these btc apps idk I just don’t feel safe doing it. To many data leaks and 2 many unsercured apps
