They suddenly delist cryptos and don't even give people a chance to trade them to something they can take out of their Bitfinex wallet. Customer service is not very helpful either. I'd say stay away,... See more

Everything is good when trading but…
Everything is good when trading but when it is time for withdrawal, then that's where the big problem is. My withdrawal has been left on pending for months without being able to do anything about it. I have reached out to them times without number but they're ignoring my messages. I've had a pretty straightforward experience with #...M𝘰netian...# so far. I've never had trouble getting access to my money when I needed it and I haven't had my access blocked. When something comes up, I can also reach the support team easily, which makes things less frustrating.
Am free as bird
By taking the extra step to look for #Nex# valors , we were able to get a full return , and that's a great outcome.

You can t withdraw your money if you deposit to that exchange .

I used this app for lending money.
I used this app for lending money.
I know this app from a YouTuber.
It is not and easy app to use, it took me some time to figure it out.
Customer service is fine.
Still learning to used this app to maximise my return 🤣
They need to be avoided
They need to be avoided, I only got back a penny because of the help I had from Laneprimiles. Warning
THEY HOLD YOUR WITHDRAWAL WITH NO REASON
I received a cryptocurrency payment for my work and attempted to withdraw my funds. Instead, my account was placed under KYC review, and my withdrawal was put on hold.
I fully cooperated with the verification process and provided all requested documents proving that the source of my deposit was legitimate. Despite this, the exchange continued asking questions that, in my opinion, were unrelated to my withdrawal request, such as which other exchanges I use and how I invest in cryptocurrency.
I do not understand how these questions are relevant after I have already demonstrated the legitimacy of my funds. Meanwhile, my money continues to be held, and I still have no clear timeline for when it will be released.
My experience has been extremely frustrating due to the lack of transparency and the prolonged withholding of my funds. I hope the exchange resolves this issue promptly and improves its communication with customers.
Don't use this platform!

Long story short, they make it as difficult for you as possible to get your money back, so stay away!
Soo bad
Soo bad! Really having issues getting back my money. Been struggling for months!
AVOID AT ALL COST - STAY AWAY from them
One of the most third class, cheap and worse of it's kind Bitcoin or Crypto exchange of all times. We applied for institutional account and submitted all details however they kept asking for bits which have nothing to do with compliance. I am also a compliance individual and worked in UK Banks for long time. When I questioned it, they suspended my account without advising me. Once they suspended it, they told me via email.
The whole operation is based on scamming people, getting their documents and money and then suspending the account. Thankfully I didn't buy anything neither disclosed anything.
But it seems like they take the documents and money and use it on illicit activities on Dark Web.
STAY MILLION MILES AWAY FROM THESE SCAMMERS
Never recommended
Never recommended. They are scammer. Lightning invoice pending from 3+ hours. Thats are horrible.
After putting in everything and seeing…
After putting in everything and seeing it collapse, I was lucky Av-ex Bri-dges took care of all the issues.
It's all a scam
It's all a scam; they suddenly come up with new rules that they didn't inform you about just to trick you out and to delay your withdrawals. But #Crop Mines......Is different and they assure good returns without any delay.
UPDATE
UPDATE:
This scammers are still holding my funds, they keep asking for different illegal information just for them to keep the funds, they feel offended that i call them disgusting scammers! you can check how long this has been going on since my first review! that platform deserves to be shut down!!
Excellent exchanger
Excellent exchanger! Have been using it since 2016 and is the only one I consider trustable and safe to deposit funds in the long term. Support and compliance had been always great too, very supportive and offering good response times
Avoid
Avoid! High costs can occur when you are not able to withdraw delisted tokens in time. Fixed fee costs which aren’t mentioned upfront!!
Disrespectful customer service. They don’t answer you questions nor do they give an explanation why costs are so high.
Avoid this exchange!!!
I had a 100% positive experience
My problem was very quickly solved and I enjoyed a 100% positive experience!
The support team got back to my problem with a withdrawal process within a super-short time span. The reaction times each time were only a couple of hours. And even though the agents were different (due to my answer time), my problem was successfully solved within short time and absolute clarity.
If all exchanges would that way, it's be a great step forward for the whole crypto sector.
GOOD SERVICE FROM BITFINEX
GOOD SERVICE FROM BITFINEX, I WAS RECOMMENDED BY BITCI STACK ASSET CUSTOMER SUPPORT TO REGISTER AN ACCOUNT WITH BITFINEX, I GOT MY EXTERNAL WALLET ADDRESS WHICH I USED TO WITHDRAW MY EARNINGS FROM THE BITCI PLATFORM.
EVERYTHING WENT WELL GOOD 👍

Terrible experience
Terrible experience. Their only value is to have been there at the beginning of the bitcoin hype, I registered with them in 2017. A few years ago they installed this new system of verification levels, even for existing users. Now they hold hostage some cryptos of mine worth a couple of meals in a good restaurant, but the verification process is such a nightmare that I am tempted to forget about the coins. However, I am not going to let them win. They try to discourage users to keep their funds.
