On XX/XX/2023 I attempted to withdraw my funds from Kraken Crypto company, a US based company. After over 10 phone calls to Kraken and multiple emails from team members, I have not received my withdrawal funds to date. It has been over 72 hours of emails that are duplicates. Kraken keeps gas lighting me and telling me that another team member needs to review my request to withdraw my monies. Every team member i spoke to told me another team member needs to review my request. On Monday, XX/XX/2023 I received and email that my withdrawal was being processed. Today is Wednesday XX/XX/2023 and I have not received my refund in my bank account. Kraken told me it would be routed to my bank. I called Kraken last night to check on the status and a team member told me that another team member would have to contact me via email. This has been going on for over three days now. I have filed a complaint with the FTC against Kraken Crypto. Kraken is holding onto members money and using gas lighting excuses for not refunding their members. This is unethical business practices and Kraken is committing fraud. They are refusing to refund me my money, they are refusing to give me status of my withdrawal, they are holding onto money that is not their money, they are gas lighting members, they are committing fraud against the american public. I am asking for an investigation against Kraken Crypto company, a US based company.
