"If someone has only been verified by phone, before the site stopped phone veri's, do they still get to keep their green tick?"

We're not removing ticks:

Why can't I leave a phone verification for a user anymore?

(Feb 2012) We've made the decision to remove PHONE as a valid verification method. In our experience of reviewing thousands of reports on fake users, PHONE is often used to gain verifications for fake or misleading accounts. For example, a couple might verify by phone but use photos that are not of themselves. A male posing as a female can also often trick people by phone.

We can only now accept verifications by cam (after you have checked it's not a recording e.g. by asking them to hold their hand up) or after a meet. We believe that this change will mean that verified accounts continue to be trusted by the community. We're not removing any phone verifications that were left before we made this change on 25th Feb 2012. If you verify someone by phone from this date, we'll remove your tick. Don't forget that if you're getting started on the site, a great way to prove you are who you say you are is to photo verify.

I'm already verified by photo & met in person but thanks for the tip lol

I only asked as some choose to hide there veri's which makes it unclear if they've ever actualy met or not but thanks anyway
