I have made multiple crypto purchases over the last year from my checking account all between 600-800usd. All of these have gone through and been approved in a matter of maybe 30 minutes. I need to be able to access crypto and send it to my wallet fast for my line of work.

Now five days ago suddenly there is a hold on my account for the money I moved over. A little over a thousand. And I’m told that the hold will be 5 days. All of these coinbase reps tell me this is standard policy when it has NEVER been standard policy before. I have lost out on two vendors I buy from and the product they carry because of coinbase’s “standard policy” that I’ve never experienced before.

What’s worse is even after I verify who I am with customer support, they are unable to remove the hold, transfer me to anyone who can, or do anything even remotely helpful.

Just save yourself some time and outrageous fees and use kraken instead.
