    Never using Coinbase again

    Was trying to send $2500 to bank, they said go identify yourself. I did, and it didn't work.

    I had 10 tries. I read articles, said try changing the capitalization or even St into street, AVE to avenue, RD to road (yea that shit didn't work either). So my account is closed for 24hrs and I can try again then. Guess what, I don't have another fukkin thing to try. So when I do try again, I'm still fukked.

    so I said, ok let me get this to USD to not gamble on bitcoins volatility. Need a photo ID and photo verification? ok no problem. I did it, and was verified. Sent to USD wallet. Cannot go through because of the first problem. WTF

    so I then said fukk it even more. Sent back to blockchain. Wait need another photo ID and photo verification....oh wait again, you've reached the maximum attempts, try again in 24 hrs.

    FUKK THIS

    money is stuck in coinbase as bitcoin and obviously I cannot get a hold of support for what, 30days?


    ill stick with checks if I have to. fukk this bs.

    Yeah they are the worst. At least you can log into your account. I've been trying for close to a year. I can't log into my own dam account because I changed phone numbers and for some reason my new phone won't work with that authy app b.s. I have Bitcoin in my account and I can't even log in. They take 45 days for email response. Every email reply is an automated thing how to use the authy app. The sht does not work with my godam phone. Fuk coinbase. I hope they go out of business.

    Just call customer service...😂...I'm laughing with you, I know the struggle. I went through an ID issue over Mike vs Michael. The government don't even scrutinize as hard as these fukkers do.

    Good old fashioned P2P. You get what you send and they pay the bill.

    Only use bitcoin with a great bonus that makes it worth doing.

    agreed .... bodog has a great bonus of 100% up to 300$ that is never ending..... unlimited ..... been on the site for over a year..... also just a heads up for coinbase users..... dont transfer money directly from your coinbase wallet to a gambling site and dont cash out from a gambling site to coinbase wallet ..... if coinbase find out about it they will freeze your account and your money.... save the headache and just transfer to a mobile wallet and than proceed.....

    Yeah. Thanks. I will try that. BBB is the best. They have gotten thousands refunded for me from companies who wouldn't listen to my complaints. I file a complaint with BBB then they respond right away it seems.
