I contacted COINBASE and immediately reported this problem to them. I also requested a reset of my password. 

5 ) I later discovered that the coins were appearing in my wallet so I deposited the coins to my account in order to cash out of my investment as I was concerned. I again contacted Coinbase to inform them that the tokens appeared in my wallet but discovered that they had disabled my account on their platform. I requested that my account be reinstated but I have been locked out of my account for 21/2 months. I then transferred the coins from Coinbase wallet to the Coinbase account. Since XX/XX/2021 XXXX have not been able to access my account and I have filed numerous complaints, followed all instructions to the following as listed on the coinbase platform and I have received no feed back as to when I will be granted access. 
Actions Taken : a ) I have followed the twostep verification by going to Trouble shooting b ) I have changed my password approximately ten times c ) I have completed the email, password reset d ) I have sent several emails to support 6 ) I have received the following message " ERROR MESSAGE COINBASE SECURITY REVIEW TO BE REMOVED.

I requested that more information but after reading the various ways that XXXX can resolve this matter including a complaint for litigation I saw that the internal process can be initiated. 
XX/XX/2021 I received an email stating that coinbase is asking for additional time to resolve my dispute. They asked for 20 days from XX/XX/2021. There was no information or update on the status of my coins and I have been very frustrated by the process and Coinbase inability to inform me that my coins were sere secure. 
XX/XX/2021 XXXX received notice that there are access steps that I should take to access my account. I was unable to do so and received a notice that my account was disabled. I attempted to make the changes on two occasions prior to XX/XX/2021 but received the notice again, Disabled '' and I should contact " Coinbase support " I have filed a complaint with the SEC and I again sent an email threatening that I intended on filing a complaint with the courts. 
On XX/XX/2021 I filed another complaint but I am now out of options. 
When I log in to other aggregators, I see that there should be approximately {$300000.00} in my account but I can not gain access to my account This is very frustrating and I have lost the value of my coins in XX/XX/2021 due to Coinbase ' s refusal to reinstate my account. 
They do not have a customer service to contact and the only communication that can be made is via email.
