First time on TrustPilot? The only reason anyone ever goes to TrustPilot or BBB is to complain. They're examples of extreme reporting bias. * Netflix: 1.4 * Apple: 1.8 * Microsoft: 1.2 * Target, Walmart, Amazon: all 1.6 * Binance: 1.4 The really odd one is Coinbase, which has way, way too many 5 star reviews and a 3.9 star rating. No company EVER has 50% 5 star reviews on TrustPilot unless they manipulated reviews. This is an extreme outlier and a huge red flag.

Yes, I start to believe they are a scam, withholding people's funds and not reply to their messages, leaving people unable to withdraw or even know what happens to their funds and crypto. Kraken needs to be investigate. When you expose the truth on their Reddit page, they block you. Many people think that they block accounts of shady people but this is untrue and I cannot let anyone says that. Many people who are now experiencing issues with Kraken withholding their funds right now are people who have been verified and re-verified and who had the same legit transaction pattern. Go visit Kraken Trustpilot page and the BBB page and you will read the horror stories from people who are 100% legit. Kraken needs to be investigate by the feds.
It's a safe bet that a majority of Bitcoin is held by citizens of the US, or at least the US is the country with the highest volume of Bitcoin per capita amongst large nations, ignoring the Bitcoin held by the government itself. Since those Bitcoiners will be able to borrow against their bitcoin it means it won't grind the economy to a halt. That can't be said for countries with a BBB low volume of Bitcoin per capita.
With any exchanges or brokers use caution and do your research however with that being mentioned Bitunix is both on CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko which I utilize their API’s for market research and real time exchange data, being knowledgeable of any cryptocurrency exchanges is of upmost importance it’s great knowing they have a BBB rating however not a deciding factor for me what was is the fact they have an investors insurance protection fund in case of any issues of the exchange being nonfunctional, so in case of any emergencies I’m able to retrieve any money deposited into the exchange, please do your research and verify this I’m not going to cite any links to prove this however your able to find and verify this information on CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko. They have futures for long or short investments with leverage and spot trading without leverage with only long option as a possibility so to invest long or short your only option is futures low fees and funding rates which is a plus + both the web app mobile app is user friendly, pleasant, professional, providing all information data necessary funding rates etc… for your investments also when you apply your take profit it shows your earnings from the investment when it achieves target price can’t stress the importance of using a stop loss with every investment and I personally prefer to use isolated future trades risk management decisions always. I’m just a user/client of Bitunix very satisfied I might add I would still be cautious of any exchanges even with all information mentioned above and don’t have any money in an exchange your not willing to have and you could utilize a combination of exchanges to implement risk management decisions to hedge against any future dilemmas. Also with complete verification of KYC your able to withdraw up to 5 million a day and don’t quote me on this but they have exceptional customer service depending on your VIP level you will have an account manager so the withdrawal could possibly be more remember it’s up to the exchanges to set those rules however they sometimes could make exceptions. And for those whom would like to remain discreet even though all your transactions are logged on the blockchain they do have a non KYC with limited withdrawal but they do allow it. One other thing they have all obtainable Government licenses necessary including the United States of America which means they are really striving to be a global exchange for all countries which is astonishing considering most exchanges that are advertised or supposedly the most volume aka binance have restrictions by region which sure you could use a VPN until your account is closed and all your money from the account is forfeited which isn’t fun which unfortunately I have knowledge of from former brokers/exchanges so doing it in a legitimate manner is the most sensible approach. They also allow fast deposits with crypto or through Apple Pay etc… which has always functioned for me and fast cryptocurrency only withdrawals!
To be honest, I'm quite satisfied with Bitunix. The interface is simple and user-friendly, and the transaction fees are reasonable. They also do a great job when it comes to security—plus, they have a BBB rating, but the more you use it, the more you trust it. If you're looking for fast transactions and good customer support, Bitunix is definitely worth a try.
I'm a bit late to this party and I'm so glad I found someone else that is going through it. I mean I'm not glad because you're going through it I'm just happy I'm not alone. Coinme has completely been the most incompetent company I've ever seen in my experience in dealing with any issues. It took me six months for me to get my number changed. Also right now I'm dealing with a $400 ATM cash pick up that has the ATM saying some error it's been 45 days and I finally just two days ago got a response after submitting a ticket. Unfortunately the response was that they would escalate my case to get the problem fixed and still I haven't had them solve the issue. Now they are ignoring my messages once again. I've submitted a complaint to the BBB and they haven't even responded to them. Absolute shit service.
I guess you didn’t read my comment? They take crypto and money if they think your bank has the slightest issue. But if you don’t have the funds they say they can’t process the transaction but they will go ahead and debit the bank account and take crypto also. I bought 300 in YFI and 250 TAO They took $496 of my QNT $263 XRP Plus $100 in XLM $67 in HBAR I emailed a complaint they said there working on it and tonight they took $298!TAO And they already received $467 from my bank account with the remainder pending. It’s not the first time they’ve done this and it was the best and easiest exchange for me to buy and sell crypto. I can’t believe I bought from them and it happened again. They have 267 complaints on the BBB only 61 resolved.
I’ve had nothing but trouble with UPHOLD exchange and they stole another 1200+ worth of crypto and money from my bank account. I want to transfer my uphold account to one of my other exchanges either Coinbase or crypto.com. Can I transfer the whole account and not lose my positions on the crypto I own on uphold? Or do I have to sell it all and buy on another exchange and lose all my positions from DCAing the past year?? That would really suck bad, but so does uphold stealing from me. They have 267 complaints on BBB THE LAST 3 years. No one helps you on uphold they just respond with a very kind but no help at all and it would cost a small fortune to hire an attorney. Thank you
A friend invested $500 in DOGE and cashed out at $20,00O profit 6 months later. Today it would be $440,000. $20,000 was awesome, $440,000 looks better. Buy XRP and hold. Buy bitcoin Nd hold. Also consider long term capital gains taxation. It will push you to HODL. And like that other person said, sell when Need the money, that said, I have ( my friend has) about 100 shit coins that went up and are now worthless. Eat crayons. You’ll be highly regarded one day. At least you’re in crypto. The truly retarded are those who don’t own any crypto. Also, take some tendies (Wendy’s chicken fingers), at least you will have some fun and then you can work at Wendy’s later. Enjoy today. Maybe by BBB options to expire at $400.
I think we can definitely get a 100% move from 90k. From 180k maybe even. Idk about getting 300-700% out of it the way the alt coins do these days . . . . But you can hodl and stake the BBB (big boss Bitcoin )
More than a few complaints in with the BBB about Bitcoin Depot fees. They reply that they have a disclosure screen with fine print. I don’t invest in their stock because it seems like unreasonably high fees.
“Or should I allocate 20% of my total net worth ($720) into a well diversified portfolio of stocks and BBB+ corporate bonds through my traders”
>Because Tether quietly settled. Binance wasn't given the option of settling because their behavior was actually criminal. >Like the one where they moved huge pile of money from Bitfinex to tether and back? Yes, they had Tether money commingled with Bitfinex customer assets and moved it to a bank account for an attestation report. The backing was still there, just commingled. >What about them lying about having full coverage for USDT in cash? Right. They moved from full coverage in cash to cash / cash equivalents / loans. Tether truthers often interpret this as meaning Tether was unbacked; they were backed - the assets were just not all cash. >What about significant part of their assets being unsecured loans (commercial paper)? US Treasury bills are unsecured loans. The commercial paper they held was all AAA - BBB equivalent grade (investment grade). The "Chinese commercial paper" backing is a conspiracy theory by Tether truthers. All their commercial paper matured and returned its principal. >What about one of the founders being a known ponzi scammer? One of their founders was a plastic surgeon. One of their founders sold pirated copies of Windows. Who cares? >I stopped researching them around when Coffezilla published his investigation. No point in looking into it any further. All you need to believe is BDO. BDO, the fifth largest accounting network in the world, continues to attest that Tether has the reserves they claim every quarter. It is strange that Tether truthers would rather believe conspiracy theories about Tether's backing than an established auditor. >You remind me the guys defending pirateat40 aka Trendon Shavers running his Bitcoin Savings and Trust investment vehicle. Did this investment vehicle have attestations published by a credible auditor like BDO? Probably not? >Nexo and Tether are next in line. Although I don't know which one collapses first. I'll bet you Tether trades above $0.90 a year from now.
I expect a month of Blue Balls in No Nut November BBB!
When u think about it melting faces is not a good thing….i seen a YouTube influencer enter a trade on the 4hr with 1.3k with 50x telling his followers if we win we win together guys and if we lose we lose together guys…..BRO THIS IS P2P not the fucken ebt line and iam black so I know but not for long or should I say short lol either way it goes it’s a bag and that’s the kool thing about that but let’s see …eating popcorn with the left taking your bags with the right cause it’s my turn 😈 #BBB #888 #tmc
It came out when enthusiasm for Bitcoin was at a nice level and they were still pushing the "let's make it useful" angle instead of "invest and get rich" one. So Dogecoin launched and the community was thriving. You could tip with it on reddit, there were multiple communities, people were developing things for it and taking it as payment for all kinds of things while just having fun in general. There were even subs like DogeGonewild where the people took DOGE as payment. It was the penny to daddy Bitcoin. Then the owner pitched a fit that people were legitimizing his joke / meme, changed it so that instead of being limited there would be 1 billion more minted every year and he sucked all of the wind out almost overnight. The only reason it has value today is that when DFV got rich on Gamestop the media and a bunch of clowns on reddit that missed the boat were pushing all sorts of other shit as the "next meme stock." That is why BBB, AMC, DOGE, silver and a few others were published as "the next big meme stocks" on tv by dishonest hacks and spread here by shills and gullible folks. DOGE had the potential to be amazing and was well on the way to dominating everything before an idealistic dev lit a match to all of it. Look up an open letter from Billy Markus on reddit since this stupid ass sub won't let anything go through.
They use the British English "licence" instead of "license" from Western or American English. There are some legit guys but man who can you trust. It's getting big enough now that maybe some Lawyers or Law Enforcement types might be able to drop a name. Suspect, but may be legit If their office is in a region that speaks English , it should match the form of license/licence . Oh maybe there are some guys registered with the BBB Good Luck
I did a 0,1BTC transaction to test waters from blockchain to coinbase 1 year ago and it's still pending on coinbase, just contacted coinbase today and told them "whats the matter?" Can you do a BBB if you dont live in the US?
Yooooooooooo [https://app.camelot.exchange/pools/0x5e27A422ec06A57567a843FD65A1BBB06aC19FC0](https://app.camelot.exchange/pools/0x5e27A422ec06A57567a843FD65A1BBB06aC19FC0)
Then why TF is Trust wallet recommending it as the better option. This is also on TW. I'm going to come a BBB as well and claim fraud, this is ridiculous! I should've stuck with Moonpay!
BTC is a great buy before the halving. Also ETH is down 25%. #BBB
Damn, different problem than mine. But document all of this and open a BBB complaint. Demand an answer and see what happens. (eg. "What do I need to change to pass verification?") You prob won't get an answer but helps your case with the BBB. Regarding the agents, you can call them over the phone as well - just need to Google the number and keep records of what was said/promised. You can then show the inconsistencies in the different agent's own messages and help your case. DO NOT TRUST ANYONE CALLING YOU FROM CB. If you didn't initiate the call it's most likely a scam. Also, if you're using a vpn or trying to log in from a different location (city/country) that could also set it off if my hunch is right. My vpn caused the same thing (I'm pretty sure). Lastly, check out the r/coinbase subreddit cuz you're not the only one with issues on CB. These guys are vile. Let me know if you have any other questions and good luck!

I'm assuming your account is locked and you can't withdraw or send crypto to another exchange/wallet? (ie. Buy and send are disabled)? I had that happen to me and after they kept giving me non answers through their chat I filed a complaint against them with the BBB (Better Business Bureau) and used them as a mediator. (I did NOT initiate arbitration - just kept saying their non answers weren't good enough and the BBB backed me.) Hard to say if that's what caused them to open up my account for a bit, but I applied steady pressure until the deadline when I could ask for another review of my account. The entire communication between myself and them on BBB was them giving me the same non answers but I like to think the threat to their reputation helped my case. They opened everything up for a few days and I withdrew almost all of it (left some small amount hoping it wouldn't happen again but I was wrong). I can do everything again except send crypto off the exchange. It's a MUCH smaller amount now so it's whatever but lesson learned: Don't trust exchanges, especially CB. Try the BBB and don't take no for an answer. Hopefully it works out, and when the restrictions are lifted move everything to a wallet and switch exchanges. Keep small amounts on them. I use Kraken now and keep ~$100 max at any given time and have had no issues withdrawing to an external wallet once the 7 day deposit hold was cleared
They just got over$1200 from my debit card. Filed BBB and the bank is sending it up as fraud.
who pays the BBB for better ratings? do you have evidence of that?
Yes, this is true, but beyond government sanctions (like the 10k cash withdrawal limit) banks have no authority to deny your money usage requests or to prevent you from withdrawing (again, under that $10000 threshold. It is possible to withdraw more, but you'll have some paperwork and possibly get a visit from the IRS). When you deposit, you become what is called a creditor to the bank. It means they are the custodian of your funds, but you have the right to extract or use those funds deposited by you in any way that is in accordance with local law. Hence, your bank cannot legally deny you purchasing crypto. They can flag it as fraudulent and require confirmation from you up to an in person visit, but they cannot bar you from purchasing unless it is illegal to do so in your jurisdiction. If they do so, report them to the BBB or your nations equivalent. Same goes for withdrawals. Although the bank does "technically" own the money you deposit, they still must abide by strict rules when it comes to repaying creditors (aka you the depositor), one of which being that your money always be available on demand and for any purchases approved by you that do not violate the jurisdictions laws.
Also, go to the Better Business Bureau website, there's a place on their were you can report scams.. scroll to the bottom grey area and find BBB scam tracker, they let you look to see if your being scammed by a common scammer, and also report scams.
Ooh, I can answer this one. There's already a position live on Camelot, Moon/ETH https://app.camelot.exchange/pools/0x5e27A422ec06A57567a843FD65A1BBB06aC19FC0 It's going to be incentivized in 2 ways, CELER tokens for bridge LPs, and GRAIL+ARB for Camelot https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/1be3o67/announcing_partnerships_with_celer_and_camelot_to/ > Thankfully on March 20th Celer protocol will be supporting moons via a pools model to allow for users to bridge moons directly between Arbitrum nova and Arbitrum one without having to wait a week. Celer is also providing incentives for bridge LPs: 285,000 Celer tokens will be distributed over the first 60 days the bridge is live. > Additionally, Camelot will be Moons official dex on Arbitrum one. They are offering additional incentives to dex LPs in the form of their native token GRAIL + additional ARB rewards (this is decided every 2 weeks so the amount will be confirmed before next epoch).
I literally had to complain to the BBB for them to release my BTC. Which took about 3 months. Look at their subreddit, its all complaints of the same thing. Also I bought $100 and received $23 worth. This is exactly why i started with a $100 test run.
Bought some crypto today on Bitstamp. Tried to remove from their exchange to cold wallet storage. Website says I need to call customer service. I called. Was told I need to sign-up for a video call to get withdrawal approval. Strange, but I said OK. They send me an email with a calendar, but there are zero available dates on the entire calendar. When I called customer service back, they said they are aware there are no available dates, hence making withdrawals impossible. Will be reporting to the BBB, FINCEN, SEC, FBI, UK FCA, Interpol and every known social media outlet every day.”

I understand...my reversed transaction was in the amount of $80 and I needed and still do need that money. Been stuck since Dec. 8th. I have gone the route of filing a complaint with the **BBB and i am also requesting mediation. Cash app consistently refuses to address any of my concerns nor answer any of my questions and I get the same bull shit regurgitated response "due to network conditions" I will take this to all 3 agencies that the BBB recommended I file complaints with as well.. It is principle now! Class action law suit one day**
I've been growing increasingly convinced that all these random projects are just businesses on a public infrastructure. It's very important that L1s are decentralized and secure. Whatever builds on top of that later are businesses, with varying levels of decentralization. Think of Ethereum like a Main Street, and all the shitcoin projects as businesses on that street. Then it's up to you whether you walk into a BBB accredited business or a front that'll mug you when you walk in the door
The BBB is just a review website, like Yelp. https://www.reddit.com/r/YouShouldKnow/comments/y4dljg/ysk_the_bbb_better_business_bureau_is_just_a/
Yeah was Overstock back then, now called BBB
Overstock and BBB weren't the same thing back then though? I thought Overstock only bought the brand last year. Still a neat factoid.
