Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service

Regarding Coinbase, 

Here is an email thread of my issue:

  XXXX   XXXX  , 2017.   XXXX   XXXX   pst

You know,  your service is really starting to suck!

Before you took my money via "Buy" ing on your platform, and would not let me sell.

And still will not.

Now, when I do buy a currency, and I am told I was successful in my purchase, within 5 minutes of my purchase, my buy order is cancelled.

Three time within 24 hours this has happened.

And it has been almost 2 months now since I contacted you all about my selling issue.

What is going on here?

Today, I have submitted a complaint to the CFPB, and I will next forward this email thread to them.



(T)Here for you

Hello and sorry for our delayed response.

This is an automated email letting you know that we regret that we are not able to answer your email in a reasonable amount of time. As we experience rapid growth, we are also experiencing a high volume of support requests. Increasing our response time and response ability is a top priority for us right now.

Our records indicate that you may be writing in to us to ask about your account limits.

Limits on customer accounts are mostly applied by our automated software, and is based on account status and activity. That being said, our automated system doesnt always calculate limits appropriately. If this is the case with your account, we sincerely apologize.

We definitely want our good customers to be able to buy as much digital currency as they need with us easily. If you feel that your limits are not appropriate for your account, please reply to this email letting us know.

In the meantime, please explore other options you may be eligible for if you want to buy larger amounts of digital currency.

In the US and  XXXX , for example, you can buy larger amounts of digital currency than the limit on your credit or debit card by linking a bank account here: https://www.coinbase.com/payment_methods

For most of our US customers, the best way to buy large amounts of digital currency fastest is to send a wire transfer to your account, which usually posts to your USD Wallet in under 24 hours. If wire transfers are already enabled for your account, you can find all the info you need to initiate a wire transfer from your end by clicking your USD Wallet then clicking Deposit. If you do not see this information, please respond to this message and request that wire transfers be enabled for your account.

Keep in mind that no matter what your region, you can see your current limits and the verification steps required to raise your limits here: https://www.coinbase.com/verifications

Thanks for your understanding as we continue to grow and improve our services.

Regards,

Every time I try to sell my currency - either via the App, or Website, I get the message "Account Restricted" . And on the App, I am asked where to Deposit the funds, but nothing is there.

I have contacted you all about this two weeks ago, but have heard nothing back.

Hello,

When I go to the sell tab I am told I can not buy or sell because of Account Restriction.

The same is true when I use the App, but it does not mention any restrictions, I just can not sell.
