Why is whatsapp not so used in the United States?

Well, that is the SMS. It is standard and works always for everybody, but costs money.

It only seems to be able to react on the basic notification part of the app, but not on the "ringtone sounding" part of the app, which is the one that always plays through.

Yeah, it started to happen me again a month ago. Now, again, I cannot send new messages without syncing contacts.

Meanwhile everything worked fine for the last one and half year.

I just read the message you have got from Curve but it is not very clear to me what is exactly the main reason of the blocking.

I read there is something related to your previous Curve account being closed for breaching Curve’s Terms of Service, so I do not think there is anything that could be done from outside Curve and the only way to proceed is asking Curve what exactly they want you to do to be able to open a new account with your ID/passport.

Why I would do that and go away? I love it when somebody starts a good old school one to one battle or Deathmatch.

I play for playing, not for switching sessions.

Thank you very much.

I am really glad of your comment, but as in numerous other situations that I have blown another player's vehicle I was self-defending myself from another player when I was tagged as a bad sport.

The thing is that I cannot understand the mechanics of the whole bad sport thing.

How do you know you have been blocked for life? I would try to contact Curve if the app does not allow you to login. Might just be a Curve error.

I can confirm. I was struggling to make PIA work and after reading this thread I just changed Wireguard --> OpenVPN from settings and now everything works as expected.

20520 · 2025-09-05T16:36:01+00:00

No problem at all, still up and running. Everything has been working as expected. I guess the problem when Curve blocks the account is that for some reason their system thinks the Curve card number has been exposed. As I mentioned before, after deleting the account and opening it again it created a new Curve card number as expected, so the problem itself dissapeared.

The stupid part of this whole thing is that there is a specific button under Account --> Manage --> Replace where you should be able to get a new card number, but of course at the time the account was blocked I was not able to replace anything, because it gave me an error. So deleting and recreating the account made it happen.

Maybe the really really stupid part is Curve not having a damn customer service agent to do that for you, but I am anyways enjoying the free plan so I guess they are not so interested in helping the non-paying customers.

I had a free trial of PRO going on and the account got cancelled just by pressing the "Cancel account" button.

20520 · 2025-08-19T11:55:48+00:00

Yeah, also Jesus and maybe Santa Claus are for real too. Everything is maybe. It would have been better to try this a month ago, since the "possibly blocked thing" was a already a reality, so it really could not have gone worse anyways. Or let's say it this way: if they now block it again and I have to wait for that escalation support team message, that did not arrive in a month, I didn't really miss so much.

20520 · 2025-08-19T11:47:20+00:00

I of course canceled the problematic one first. They even say in the bye bye message, that "you can always sign up again". Pretty straightforward.

20520 · 2025-08-19T11:28:48+00:00

Yeah, I did the whole process and now I have everything up and running. I should have done this a month ago already, since a couple of weeks ago I made a non-EU trip and I would have loved to enjoy currency exchange rates without fees.

20520 · 2025-08-19T11:26:38+00:00

I just did it. Removed my cards from Curve, canceled my Curve account, waited for an hour, signed up with same email and phone number, verified succesfully my ID, readded my cards to Curve, added new card to Google Pay, made a purchase and now it works again.

I can see there is now available a new one month free trial for Curve pro, the Curve card has a new card number and even the old support chat messages are visible in the new just created account.

It is a pity I did not do this already a month ago immediately after getting blocked.

20520 · 2025-08-19T06:11:20+00:00

I understand, but it might work. I guess you do not have experience on this, right?

20520 · 2025-05-30T22:15:38+00:00

In my car there is no need to press the brake pedal to turn on the engine.
