Exchanges Overloaded unable to verify in timely manner

I am not sure exactly what is going on with the exchanges but it seems either my luck is poor or there is issues with the several most recommended exchanges. coinbase seems to have this most annoying glitch where it wont recognize the correct numbers from my account for the verification on both the debit and the bank account. Bitstamp was out of line in my opinion when asking for pics of my bank statement to verify my address. Gemini seemed like the winner when i was going through the account set up process. Everything went smoothly and i was ready to start purchasing BTC with Fiat money. There is a message about there being a high volume in applications and to allow up to two weeks for the verification to be completed. In this 24 hour market a single day can feel like as well prove to be a very long time. two weeks to wait for the ability to purchase BTC or ETH with Fiat is just ridiculous, as well as costing me gains.
