Do I have to verify if only using coinbase as a wallet ?!

I’ve been using coinbase (the normal coinbase not the new “coinbase wallet” one) purely as a wallet since years and they never asked me to verify. Now when I login there is a notice at the top that says add a payment method and verify ID.

I haven’t transferred anything out because I’m worried I get locked. I don’t mind verifying but I heard nightmares of people being stuck in verification limbo for months / years

Anyone has this happen to them and where you able to remove your funds without verification ?
