Issue: Other transaction problem — 
Company: Coinbase, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Account was locked immediately upon opening, and failed customer support to assist. 
Emails and notifications saying to continue with process, but process is restricted/blocked. 

Subject : Request for Explanation and Resolution Account Restriction I am writing to formally request clarity and resolution regarding the restrictions placed on my Coinbase account. Upon creating my account, I was unexpectedly suspended for XXXX  days before I had even completed setup or attempted any transactions. 

Shortly after verifying my identity, I received the following message : " We are concerned you may have sent, or are trying to send, crypto to a fraudulent person or platform ... To protect you against potential loss, we have temporarily limited your ability to send additional crypto until XX/XX/year>. '' This message makes no sense in the context of my actual activity : at the time I received it, my account was not yet fully verified, I had not added a payment method, and I had not attempted to send or buy anything. Despite this, I have been locked out of functionality and told I must simply wait out the restriction period with no specific explanation or ability to appeal. 

I have contacted Coinbase Support through the chatbot and humans ( which constantly crash ) multiple times and received only generic replies with XXXX help. I have had to initiate every interaction myself just to learn small details about what is happening. At no point have I received a clear explanation of the issue, what caused it, or how I can resolve it nor have I received any meaningful communication from your team since the initial email. However, I keep getting email and app notifications that " Now you can get started : Trade crypto '' which only lead to a blocked buy option. 

I am requesting the following : A clear explanation of why my account was restricted, especially since no transactions had occurred. 

An accurate and transparent timeline for when full functionality will be restored. 

A path forward either restoration of access or a clean closure, if you are unable or unwilling to support my account. 

Additionally, I would appreciate a response regarding what Coinbase is doing to improve its internal systems and customer communication practices. When account restrictions are triggered particularly in error customers deserve timely, clear, and proactive support. No one should be left in the dark when trying to use a financial platform that claims to prioritize trust and security. 

If I do not receive a response or resolution in a timely manner, I will consider filing formal complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and other relevant oversight bodies. I would prefer to resolve this matter amicably and professionally, and I hope you will help make that possible.

Company: Relay Financial (US), Corp.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, a deposit of {$930.00} XXXX  was made into my Relay Financial business account via ACH transfer from XXXX XXXX. I did not recognize this payment, had no prior knowledge of it, and had no agreement or contract for any service related to this specific transaction. 

Despite previous professional transactions with the same sender, I have no documentation or communication regarding this {$930.00} payment, making it suspicious and unauthorized in my view. 

The sender has already filed a dispute to get the funds back, and I fully support this. I have made it clear to XXXX XXXX that I do not want to keep this money and am requesting a refund to the original sender. However, XXXX has refused to process the refund, stating that prior transactions make this one appear authorizedeven though no documentation exists to support this specific payment. 

To make matters worse, XXXX closed my account shortly after this deposit, without informing me or allowing me to respond properly. When I contacted customer support, I was treated unprofessionally and received no clear resolution. 

I am concerned that this situation may be used to harm me or misrepresent my business activities. I have made every good faith effort to resolve it responsibly, but XXXX has prevented me from doing so.

Despite my efforts to seek clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to provide the necessary information. I demand immediate action and transparency from the creditors. The creditors must provide detailed information on each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, furnish relevant application documents, and present evidence of explicit authorization for each inquiry.
