I keep being asked to verify my identify before they help me, even though I've done it?

I made a complaint online recently regarding an issue with my account. Initally i was asked to verify my postcode which I did and then I didn't hear anything for a while. I am corresponding with three via my registered email account associated with my number. The next time they asked me to provide my ID so I did. The next time they ask me to provide my ID with a selfie. I have asked them if there is an issue here as i've already sent in 2 pieces of verifiable information and am emailing off my registered email address. The latter is an issue due to an disability, usually companies allow me to verify through a third party if they need facial verification or they will just accept the ID (which I have already sent in). Can anyone else document your experiences with trying to get help and keep being asked to identify themselves? FYI I was born in the UK, lived here all my life and my ID is within date so there really should not be all these issues. Is there anyway I can escalte this interally?

I’d suggest making a complaint but to be honest I’m at a loss to explain the level of id confirmation Three are requesting. I’m guessing it’s because you’re not communicating from your Three phone. You mention the word disability so all I can suggest is you contact the Three customer wellness team. Call them on 03333381012. Don’t know if this is of any help to you but I hope so and wish you luck,

Hey, thanks for the response. They did call me on my phone and then said they had an update about my complaint (sent in text form), so when I emailed them and told them I had already told them from the start to communicate with me in text and not verbally, I was hoping this would alert them to the fact I had received an update message from them to my phone. Do you know of an email contact for that team as I will struggle to verbalise the issue, which I did tell them from the start and they also ignored. Thanks again for your help on this.
