Coinbase is the worst of the worst. I had everything stolen from my account plus I owe money because the culprit bought more tokens from money out of my bank, converted it, and exchanged it. All this within 2 minutes. I had a block at my bank knowing something was going on but since the deed was done before the bank transfer took place, I owe coinbase more money even though my bank blocked the transaction. Customer service was lousy, it took a month to recover my account only to be told your $#*! out of luck and you owe us money. No effort whatsoever to help recover it. Too much work, I guess. It really almost seems like an inside job the way it all went down. Maybe I'm just a conspirative. My advice STAY FAR AWAY FROM COINBASE. THE RISK ISNT IN YOUR INVESTMENTS, THE RISK IS TRUSTING COINBASE WITH THE SECURTIY OF YOUR MONEY.
For starters I've had to relink my account numerous times with still no definite answers to why. After relinking the first time I was able to trade for a while with no problems. Then again recently the same problem with needing to relink my account. Relinked the account AGAIN and now am being told I have insufficient funds (which is complete crap!) The only response I get is that their third-party (plaid) is responsible for that aspect of things and or my bank is to blame. Again, complete crap and excuses! Coinbase needs to be responsible for their third-party that handles their customers transactions which are being prevented from being made! At the same time emailing back and forth with coinbase I was literally getting notifications about the crypto I was previously trying to buy and was unable to and essentially lost money due to the fault of the "third-party" and or "ignorance" of coinbase! I've since emailed asking how coinbase now plans to correct and reimburse myself as well as others in which have had these same problems. So far they have lived up to the title of this review "sufficient BS" in a glorious and expected manner with no response!. Will definitely keep everyone updated and please feel free to share your lovely coinbase disappointments as well!... FYI, a posted image of that notification I received while being prevented prior to from buying that asset and in the middle of emailing back and forth with coinbase as I stated previously in this review. The second image is just food for thought!
My wallet was compromised few months back due to Phishing attack and I was loosing my cool cos I really don't know how to go about it and be able to access all my investment. Very Bad customer services from Coinbase so I had to keep searching for help on how to stop Phishing attack on my wallet.

Good support from Coinbase Helpline *******786. I was worried about my Bitcoins as i was unable to send my bitcoins for trading. Thanks to the support staff.
Coinbase has failed everyone, not to be trusted in any way scammed me of a lot of money and I wouldn't have been able to get back my money if I wasn't helped my asset recoup dot com
Coinbase is the gold standard in virtual currency exchangers, exclusively dealing with Bitcoin, Ethereum and recently Litecoin. They are a fast growing darling of Silicon Valley and have the heavyweight VC's like Andreesen Horowitz / DFJ backing their later stage rounds. While they're busy burning through millions of cash, they still have not figured out how to sufficiently scale and manage their customer base.
The platform works nearly flawlessly once it has been set up properly. However, I found this process to be quite cumbersome, because of the automation that goes into the process and the severely lacking human capital for customer support.
Something as simple as updating a social security number was quite painful, with repeated error messages. Contacting customer support yielded 1 response out of 4 attempts, in a 1 month period. That response simply stated something to the effect of "sorry it took us so long to respond, are you still experiencing this problem? Please try again."
The problem eventually resolved on its own, mysteriously, only to come back up again (and restrict my account) in the process. When it works the exchange occurs very quickly, and the funds can be deposited within 2 business days to an account. They can process a high volume and a large dollar amount of transactions. There's a maximum sell limit that replenishes in real time. The exchange fees are quite high, but there's a problem with an oversupply of ledger recordings and the higher fees tend to get processed faster.
Don't put any money on this platform because you will scam! Very bad company they take my money and never give me back!
COINBASE SCAMMED US OUT OF $1000+ ON THANKSGIVING DAY AND WILL NOT NOT RESPOND! WE HAVE A SPECIAL NEEDS SON AND IT WILL NOT BE THE BEST CHRISTMAS THIS YEAR. THEY CUT THEIR PHONE LINES OFF.

WE HAVE ALL EVIDENCE ON CELL PHONE CAMERA FOR THE SEC... SEC PLEASE REPLY AS THIS INVOLVES XRP COINS THAT MY HUSBAND WAS NOT ALLOWED TO EXIT POSITION DURING A HIGH RATE FLUX ON.

Coinbase is a fraudulent company. I had $7000 disappear out of my wallet! Impossible to speak to a human! They take zero responsibility! DO NOT WASTE YOUR $ GIVING IT TO THESE THIEVES!
Dear coin base thanks for stealing my Eth2 and lying to me saying it was frozen because I owed you money that I was never received what a joke you are as a trading plateform.
CoinBase is a RIPOFF! There is no customer service. If you put your money into CoinBase you will lose it like I lost mine. They just steal your money.
I lost my phone with my SIM card and I couldn't get my number with simple mobile. I tried everything with simple mobile company and they couldn't help me get my number back and I think they are not professional. I have been with the company since 3 years now. I explained the problem to Coinbase customer support and they asked me many proof that I've sent to them. During 2 weeks I've sent all the proof they asked to me without problem. Today 10-18-2021 They say they can not help me and I think Coinbase team are scammers. They scam my $3000.
They scam my ******* + dogecoin and all my others cryptocurrencies. Me and my family with my 3 friends are leaving Coinbase today. We are going to invest in trusted companies. All the others companies( CRYPTO.COM, BINANCE.US, BITRUE, ROBINHOOD) have been able to restore my account without problem in they platform.
My Coinbase case number is #*******
After several weeks of taking pictures and different verification, I never got SMTP code and cant withdraw my funds, I have lost about 35k until I contacted skyline-recovery com to help recover all m funds and theygot all my funds back with no hassels.
I quit coinbase when they made it too complicated to buy $1200 worth of silver for my grandchildren and myself. I started buying elsewhere.
I opened my account with Bitcoin in the Spring of 2016. My acct 'opened' fine after their stated waiting period. Had questions on multi-cosigners, found answer on Youtube before they got to me 3-4 weeks later. "Aound" this time, my ISP, Verizon sold out to Frontier (MANY problems in FL). At this point CANNOT CONNECT TO COINBASE - (have tried 3 times, but won't "Recognize Device" EVEN AFTER THEY SEND A "TRY AGAIN". About a FULL MONTH between responses. Have OPEN TROUBLE TICKET, but response is "About Monthly". I am wondering if I will have to get a LAWYER "Touch" them... or whether I have LOST MY MONEY.
I have lost ALL FAITH IN THEM, and discourage ANYONE from using BITCOIN.COM for ANY cryptocurrency dealings. It is now 10/4/16, and I have not had access since Late JULY 2016!
Let me be short and not waste your time. This is what's wrong with Coinbase:
- 4% fee with every bank purchase of crypto. So, you immediately are at a high loss.
- No customer support on the phone. I wonder why. Maybe because there are too many complaints and they couldn't handle them if they were actually to listen to their customers, who are investing their hard-earned money.
- When you buy something it takes 5 business days for the money to be available to send to a wallet. This means you could miss out on hundreds or thousands of dollars in staking rewards, just because Coinbase's system is so slow.
- Let's say you see the price drop of your favorite crypto, you have 12k in your bank account and you think, "If I buy it now, I'll get it at a good price." You try to buy at the dip for 3k dollars, and uhhm... Coinbase claims that you have "insufficient funds" in your bank account. This hasn't happened once, but a number of times, forcing me to try again later, when the price already spiked.
The sad thing is, many other brokers aren't that much better. This is the crap we get stuck with. Not only are you already taking a risk investing in crypto, but now you have to put up with their clunky glitches and slow systems, hoping that you can get what they claim you are able to, inconsistently getting frustrated because a purchase doesn't go through or sending is delayed. Coinbase has probably made millions of customers lose or lose out on billions of dollars because of this garbage. Fix your problems, Coinbase!
I invested $150 on Coinbase. I cash in some holdings, and the funds disappeared. I sent inquiries twice, with NO RESPONSE.
I looked again this evening, and all but $0.01 is gone.
DO NOT USE COINBASE!
Stay away, if you have an account take your crypto somewhere else, its a matter of time and you are next.
Crashing and manipulating web access exactly at the time you need it the most, preventing "undesired" exchanges.
Please be very careful.
Answer: You can get your crypto back from coinbase if you having problem accessing your account A military friend that introduced me to the dark web as my best bet at finding agencies [Kryptorecovery gmail com] whose sole purpose was to recover stolen financial assets from scammers I sought the services of Kryptorecovery PHOENIX SOULS Search on search engines like BING, DuckDuckGo, Yahoo In 48 hours I had my initial investment and generated profits all together in my wallet.
Answer: The thing is people generally only write a review if they got cheated. And thus from all the reviews (not just this site) you can tell that they screwed over a lot of people (including me). Let's say that 95% of people have a good experience with the site, what about the remaining 5%. If a company is not loyal to all its customers then that company should not exist, especially a company dealing with money. My advice is, stay away from them. Use localbitcoins to trade and bitgo to store, way better and more secure.
Answer: That's how mine take long and they scam me but with the help of assets revivelive they help me recover my money They trustworthy, contact them they will help you
Answer: It will take them forever because there are inefficient unorganized and lousy company... you are one of us who trusted this lousy company. You should tell everyone to stay away from this lousy company
