I had a strange possible attempt at compromising my account. I contacted coinbase and they locked my account over a week later. Not only did it not do anything to protect me, but now I'm locked out while all these coins are going up. Its been over a week. I've tried contacting support a dozen different ways to no avail. Anyone else have this problem with coinbase? Their support fucking blows. Check out their subplebbit and look at all the people complaining about their dogshit support.

Honestly I've never had a problem in 4 years but this has really made me question my use of it. I feel retarded because I've referred like 5 friends there. I hope they don't get fucked like me. I don't even want to tell them what happened to me or they might get scared and think crypto is a scam.

You have no idea what you're talking about dumbass. I also have 2fa on everything and a strong password. My account has never been compromised. What actually happened was I got an authentication code sent to my business phone number which has nothing to do with my coinbase account. Also I use an authenticator app, not standard 2fa, so I thought it was bizarre. I asked coinbase to look into it and they responded by locking down my account. I truly should have just ignored it. Fucking retarded.

Also fuck you and your dumbass assumptions that were all completely wrong.

>> No.30164640

>>30163860
I'm also lvl 3 kyc verified. I literally never lost control of the account until coinbase shut me out. My business phone number is not linked in any way to my coinbase account, nor is it linked in any way to my personal email. It was probably a fluke. Possibly someone set up a coinbase account with a similar number to my business line? I have no idea how I got this authenticator code. It clearly wasn't for my account since my phone number was not set to that number.

Consider filing a complaint with your state regulatory body: https://www.coinbase.com/legal/licenses
Bad look if complaints pile up before their IPO.

>> No.30164885

>>30164784
Thank you anon. I have first filed a complaint through their formal complaint system. Apparently their user agreement requires you to contact support, then file a complaint before you pursue legal action or contact regulatory boards.

But believe me that is my next step. Thanks again anon. You are a good person. Not a butthurt dickbafg trying to slutshame me

Why would you think this is a joke. I literally got locked out of my account for no reason other than lazy support staff and I can't access 2k worth of altcoins. Why would it be a larp. If it was a larp wouldn't I say it was all my coins or something or that i need it to pay my mortgage. Surely I could some up with something better.

Go look around their subreddit to see how many people are complaining daily.

This binds you only, and their recourse is what, closing your account? You already can't access it. Personally I would go ahead and file the complaint with the state agency.

it happened to me.
it took about 2 weeks.
they'll make you do a license front/back and phone number thing again...

your original 2fa will work, you just have to prove you are you, cause you sent a comped request.
so they'll make you prove you are you.
then they'll let you back in.
took me about 2 weeks.

that has also happened to me.
except it was a little over 20k.

swapped about 80k. crypto/crypto.

then i swore at support.
now i am banned forever.

double charges... lock outs... insane price differences on swaps...

never had a problem with coinbase until the started fucking with my money.

Yea, I've been locked out for 3 weeks atm. I opened an account and verified everything but my license/i.d. and the let me buy crypto, I whent to go upload my i.d. and backed out half way through because its expired and now I cant buy or trade, I can only convert crypto to other crypto now. I have tried many many times and cannot get ahold of anybody about fixing this matter and it's very annoying.
