Consumer Complaint: Hello, I was using XXXX constantly for sending/receiving XXXX. But because I visited XXXX XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX this year, my account was disabled because of sanctions between XXXX and US, I guess. I received an email which said I need to contact support team of Coinbase to enable my account, but I could n't reach them for the last 2 weeks. I am reaching you with the hope that you can help me enable my account, or at least help me get back those funds left in my account. Thanks

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX I initiated a wire transfer for {$12000.00} from my XXXX account over to CoinBase ( a digital currency exchange ). This wire transfer still has not hit my account in CoinBase and I have no access to my funds. I have actually successfully wired funds from the same XXXX account to the same CoinBase account in the past but for some reason, this wire is being held up on the CoinBase side. I followed all of the instructions CoinBase provides. This is exactly what it states on the CoinBase ( XXXX ) page when setting up a wire transfer : " Bank wire transfers may be credited to your XXXX account on the same day if submitted by XXXX PT. Otherwise, funds will be available after one business day. '' My wire was submitted on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX Est so it should have hit CoinBase the same day. I contacted XXXX and they show the transfer was completed on their side with no issues.I was provided this information from XXXX : Transaction number : XXXX and Fed reference number : XXXX As of XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX Est I still have no access to these funds. They are being held on the CoinBase side. I have tried to contact CoinBase numerous times. They have no phone number to call. On their website, the only option to contact them is by a web form. I have sent in a few requests on this web form. I have only received one generic response on XX/XX/XXXX that said this : " Thanks for contacting us, and sorry for the difficulty with your wire transfer. We are aware of an issue with incoming wires, and our engineers are working to resolve it as quickly as possible. We will follow up with you as soon as you we have an update. '' I have had no other responses from them. I have also sent them numerous private message on XXXX to their support department. They have not responded there either.

Consumer Complaint: I linked a bank account and transferred {$100.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I was notified by Coinbase that the transaction was reversed due to nonsufficient funds. I checked with my bank, who confirmed that the transaction completed. I have emailed Coinbase everyday for over a week without any response. The only thing I receive is an automated message that they received my email message.

Consumer Complaint: I opened an account with Coinbase a US company and purchased a digital currency called XXXX and XXXX, I am a XXXX based Citizen and Resident. I viewed my account whilst travelling with my employer an international Airline to a country ( XXXX ) where I was staying for. Few hours at the Airport hotel. Then suddenly and without warning Coinbase froze my account and funds. I did not make any transactions just viewed the value of my account as one would with any other financial foreign exchange account. I have sent ID such as bank and passport details and have contacted Coinbase on many many occasions with just a computer standard response, please advise as there actions are very questionable.

Consumer Complaint: My Coinbase account had verified my XXXX checking account and identity years ago. Recently after logging in and moving Bitcoins from my wallet to my vault I tried to move them back to my wallet. The transaction has been " waiting on approval '' whatever that means, for over a week now. I opened a ticket with their " support '' bot six days ago and have only received an email that says they got my request. No follow up, no contact. I found that one of the few things I could do in my Coinbase account was verify my bank account ( again ) so I thought maybe since it had been a few years I might have to do that. I started that process. They verify your account by sending two small sums of money. Usually a few cents. You then verify your account by verifying the amounts after you get them. They say it could take up to three business days to get the amounts. It has been four business days since I began that process and I have no small deposits in my account. I am frustrated because Coinbase " support '' does not support the customers. They do not respond to service tickets.
