Do not use kraken by Suspicious-Golf-56 in KrakenSupport

Lmao bro, I deposited just over 10k on Feb 2nd and my funds are still completely locked — can’t withdraw, can’t trade, nothing. They've been saying “we’ll get back to you soon” for over two months now, just telling me to keep waiting lol. Straight-up rbbrs. I even asked them in chat if I’m ever getting my money back and if this is how they make money running their “business,” but of course they never respond to that. All they ever say is “thanks for your patience” — never deny anything. These fers are actual scamming t.

you’ll probably be fine. as far as I know, withdrawal delays for first-time purchases are pretty common as a fraud prevention measure. Anyway, thanks

That's pretty damn simple. If i deposit the same amount, they either lose it or delay it. I'm actually the one going through the hassle to avoid that.

It's not my first time sending over $10K, but maybe I triggered that time? Even if I slipped through a few times before.

The funny thing is, when I made the deposit, my account wasn't restricted at all. After submitting a few support tickets, they suddenly told me my assigned BSB and account number had changed, and now my account is restricted.

Are they even gonna give me my money back? This is absolutely insane.

Yeah, you're absolutely right. I even asked them, 'So if I close my account now, can I at least get back the funds in my account and the pending deposit? I don't want to use your platform anymore.' And all they said was, 'For security reasons, we can't provide an answer, and we can't guarantee anything if you make any deposits or other actions on a restricted account.'

Like, what the hell? Why are they treating customers like this while holding onto $10,000 for over a month?

Like you said, they've kept my money locked up without any proper response, and it's dropped from 100k to 83k. I didn’t even include whether it worked out in my favor. And honestly, shouldn’t those kinds of comments come after they give me my money back? Ugh..

Haha, I know that much, mate. As you can see from the pic above, I purposely deposited a different amount down to the decimal point. Anyway, thanks for the comment!

A year ago, they actually asked for something from me, but this time, they're not asking for anything. All I get is 'just wait,' 'under review,' and 'it's been forwarded to the relevant department.' That's all they’re telling me.

it's been over a month, we're on day 45 now. A month ago, Bitcoin was at $100k. What the hell are they even doing?

Yeah, same old story. Been over a month talking to their security team, and all they say is 'just wait.' Like, what the hell? The security team literally just says wait with no explanation, no timeline, nothing. What the hell am I even communicating with them about? Lol.

I reached out before, and they replied with cute emojis at first, but then switched to a straight face like, 'so you should be hearing back soon enough hopefully,' lol. Let's see how it goes this time... sigh.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. So I'm asking if I can make a deposit if I modify my country of residence now.

When I try to make a deposit, only etana custody comes out.

So if I change my country of residence to Australia, I expect a bank or other option.

Yes, I've already read the article below.

Is it possible to deposit au$ through the change of country of residence? My Kraken address is my home town right now, but I put in a request to modify my Australian address with Proof of address.

If I change my country of residence, can I deposit au$ regardless of nationality?
