Title: bittrex is a scam website - AVOID!- WITH PROOF!!
Post by: manshed on June 07, 2017, 03:09:28 AM
1. if you deposit a large amount, they will disable your account and never reply.
2. if you contact their support they will not rely.
3. if you try to log in they will change your desk login details and then you are not allowed to reset your password.
4. You can not take your money back either!
5. Their verifications don't work on top of it, you are stuck in limbo.

They stole all of my money, took me for everything and I have never used them even once. They are truly the lowest form of scum on this planet. This is a warning to all to PULL OUT your money now as they are going to take you all for everything you have.

1. bullshit auto response that makes absolutely no sense https://postimg.org/image/hpsrl3sg1/
2. https://postimg.org/image/se13xorsx/ -  look my account is disabled on my first ever try, well I better go verify my phone number and promptly resolve this issue
3. https://postimg.org/image/g0o9qs24h/- This is 100% without question the code.  I am not going to take a picture of me looking at the phone writing this down. Guess I can't verify, oh well how about fuck them and I'll simply take my money back
4. https://gyazo.com/1bc9e156c0a30211ec5f88b596f3501d Well fuck me again, how about I read about the disabled accounts on their page to find out why a month busting my ass in two jobs is being held up
5. https://bittrex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000240791 Nothing, what about that? Shall I keep going?

I am so so angry at this that my head hurts, i'll take a rest but I will dig more evidence later. Let this be a lesson to you all, if they are selectively scamming the little guy, imagine how badly they are going to fuck up a few of the big ones.

They are stalling you for your withdrawal of 0.11BTC? Is that everything you have deposited with them till now? Man this sucks. I was going to sell some GBYTE on their exchange but now I am starting to have second thoughts.

I understand your situation.

From my part, got an account at bittrex since what...2 years... I've been absent on that exchange for a really long while, but I must share something while theres a topic about it.

Since 2 weeks, I'm receiving emails that some people are able to log in into my account. I'm now at 3 or 4 times.

I've decided to put the 2fa on afterwhile.

Guess some hackers were able to access their databases or something, cant say.

For the people who are reading now, that hasnt 2fa on, I recommend you to do so, as soon as possible.

I wish they would just let me withdraw from their site and move on with my life. They really got me angry and stressed yesterday. I have even uploaded my passport. Why do these exchanges not have support? I guess it's difficult to find people but if you are making that kind of money have a plan. I am going to wait another day and then keep on a posting run warning everyone to avoid these people. I'll try to be more understanding but jesus, they even banned me from the chat room for asking.

Oh my goodness...

I have been in there for more than 2 years and i never got that problem.
It's new rule or something ?
I even have a btc more than 1BTC and didnt get any problem at all.
Or it's a rule for new registered account to prevent money laundry ?
But it's only 0.1BTC , so sick

I've bought and sold more GBYTE than that on Bittrex and I've been fine.  There might be some other circumstances causing this situation.

Plus, 0.11 BTC is hardly a "large amount" for them to properly scam anyone for.

Post by: magneto on June 14, 2017, 06:12:31 AM
I don't know why they did this to your account, because i've been depositing way more than $1000 and withdrawing way more than that as well on a monthly basis, as well as occasionally storing more than $1k on their exchange. I have never experienced any hiccups with their service, definitely haven't gotten my funds held up once like yours either. They are a legit exchange, also probably the best exchange right now because poloniex has gone scam basically.

Since you already submitted your ID, you should be able to argue with their customer support to get your funds back. They have a good customer support, as long as you did everything right you should expect your BTC back.

If they are selectively scamming, they wouldn't do it on you. They would do it on someone with a balance of 100 BTC+.

Please before you report any issue of scam, let's know the exact thing you did which lead to this problem you are facing. Some people break site rules and if they know they are being published from their wrong doing, they launch a scam accusation here.
I am not saying you did something though but maybe ...

Post by: SyGambler on July 04, 2017, 12:13:54 PM
these days I don't trust any exchange even popular ones , after my last problem with poloniex I won't be surprised if every other exchange does the same and try to fool certain users while being ok with others

I have used bittrex two time so far , first time with 0.05 and the 2nd with 0.1 but I haven't kept my money there just bought clams and insta withdraw
things worked good but as I said I only used them two times and for a couple of minutes

There is surely a confusion between both parties? Because I don't know wich company like Bittrex would start to scam people for a low amount. They don't have any  reason. I am not telling it is the case with the OP, but very often people open scam accusation on the web but don't tell to people the full story. Or sometimes a mistake happen within the site (it can happen to any) and people contact the helpdesk to get help, but 1) speak very rude 2) don't explain correctly /full 3) insult 4) writte in another language than english 5) or even sometimes forgot to click the "send" button lol

No issues for me other than slow support, which is true of all exchanges. I verify where I trade for the flexibility of arb'ing with larger amounts. I also pay taxes on every satoshi. Definitely use 2fa, and carry backup codes, but it only takes 24 hours to restore all authy tokens after a factory reset. I just did that a few weeks ago. Freeballing an account with thousands of hard earned dollars and no 2fa is just asking for it.

Hi together. I have to tell a Semilar Story. I'm Trading at bittrex Since a year a so and everything was  fine. Now i have lost my 2-fact app on my iphone, becuse i thougt, everything was Backupped by itunes. But It wasn't. I never wrote down the keys,  because i didn't know for what. My fault, Sure.

I'm loosing money, because i can't login anymore.
I wrote several Times, but without success. Did somebody has an Idea, whom i could contact for Help?

That really sucks

Many Regards,
Marcus

Exchangers should actively response to support tickets, if they don't want to land in scam accusations.  It is a nogo to keep money but not to care about customers. Even, if someone break rules, he should get back his money, because its not theirs.

I am going through this exact issue with Bittrex.  The amounts you deposited were under .1 ETH.  I was told by Bittrex support that anything under .1 gets stored in a hot wallet and  once I deposited a sum of .1 ETH or more then my ETH would be deposited.  I deposited 4.7 ETH and still the small amount locked up in the hot wallet is still there and not released to me.  On going for more than 30 days now.

Their support is worthless.

I have been in bittrex for a while now and I haven't got any problems with them. Maybe you are right that he isn't telling us the whole story. It's better to comply. Most people write about a site scamming them just to realise later that they didn't comply with their basic rules.

I locked myself out my account and I'm simply waiting to get my password reset, can something so simple take so pain stakingly long?

Has anyone else been experiencing similar problems...please share.

That's why it is good if all exchange websites are run under supervision against user accounts fraud.
Obviously it is too easy for site owners to scam their own customers.

I don't think that a big exchange platform would scam any of its customer for only 0.11BTC unless he brokes the rules of the site. I use Bittrex since 2015 for daily trading and i have no issues at all without any personal verification. I agree that may have some problems contacting the support but it's may be due to large number of instant users and how noobs faces problems even when making a simple registration task.

I got thousands of dollars in bittrex for months now, and I've been withdrawing back and forth to my country exchange without any glitch. So I'm pretty sure they are legit. Their commission fee is 0.25% for each trade which is quite steep, so I'm sure they got shitload of money already just from the commission alone everyday. So I don't think they will scam people and lose potential hundred thousands of dollars from commission anyway  :-\

But all and all, they do have to double up on their support system and their software in general. Their functionalities are so damn limited which is too bad knowing they got all the money to make a better trading system.

For me deposits and withdrawals works fine in Bittrex but I'm facing problem in phone verification. I've tried like 50 times and I'm still trying but Bittrex is not sending any verification code to my phone. I've sent many support tickets but they are not at all replying.
Other than this everything works fine in Bittrex though sometimes BTC deposits will be delayed.

Bittrex has been known to provide a secure and smooth service, and their support team have been known to be helpful too.

Maybe they don't support all countries or they want another format as usually. Hope, that OP's problem is solved. Bittrex is one of the few legit exchangers yet and has many coins. Hope, they will stay legit.

This is a miracle that you were not scammed by a lot of money, ussually a lot of acounts with high volume are being closed without warnings, so i dont understand why yours with $40 in balance has been closed. Anyway, everybody knows that bittrex has a lot of problems, but still it is the best exchange out there, and you all know that, it has too many altcoins to trade, and it is safe, of course that it is a little bit weird that a few users are being scammed too.

1. if you deposit a large amount, they will disable your account and never reply.
2. if you contact their support they will not rely.
3. if you try to log in they will change your desk login details and then you are not allowed to reset your password.
4. You can not take your money back either!
5. Their verifications don't work on top of it, you are stuck in limbo.

They stole all of my money, took me for everything and I have never used them even once. They are truly the lowest form of scum on this planet. This is a warning to all to PULL OUT your money now as they are going to take you all for everything you have.

1. bullshit auto response that makes absolutely no sense https://postimg.org/image/hpsrl3sg1/
2. https://postimg.org/image/se13xorsx/ -  look my account is disabled on my first ever try, well I better go verify my phone number and promptly resolve this issue
3. https://postimg.org/image/g0o9qs24h/- This is 100% without question the code.  I am not going to take a picture of me looking at the phone writing this down. Guess I can't verify, oh well how about fuck them and I'll simply take my money back
4. https://gyazo.com/1bc9e156c0a30211ec5f88b596f3501d Well fuck me again, how about I read about the disabled accounts on their page to find out why a month busting my ass in two jobs is being held up
5. https://bittrex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000240791 Nothing, what about that? Shall I keep going?

I am so so angry at this that my head hurts, i'll take a rest but I will dig more evidence later. Let this be a lesson to you all, if they are selectively scamming the little guy, imagine how badly they are going to fuck up a few of the big ones.



I do not know. I am with them some time and they always worked fine for me. It is hard to believe that they wanted to scam such a small quantity. Perhaps they need your verification because your country has higher regulations or you changed your address.

What you showed is not the proof. Maybe they are incompetent or maybe not, but certainly that is not a scam proof.
In 1 they ask you to verify and they say you that your account is locked for 24h. That's what happens in 2 and 4. In 3 maybe you have a problem with your the local time of your device.

Anyone has the opportunity to be a criminal, be it public officials or the general public.

Deposits in large quantities never escape from surveillance, the surveillance itself is done by people who are related in this field, who else if not a bittrex person, either accidental or indeed planned, it turns out that who oversee your deposit is a thief.

Because only they know the amount of the deposit.

Calm guys, I also used bittrex for a long time, I told anyone to leave poloniex to move to bittrex because it was much better.
But unfortunately I also had an unpleasant experience with bittrex.
I find myself in agreement with manshed because I have had a similar experience.
I invite you all to look at my post so to really understand who we are dealing with:

You can find horror stories about any exchange if you look hard enough. Bittrex is very popular and the majority of people, myself included, have had no issues with it. OP has been very unlucky by the sounds of things, but that doesn't mean the entire website is a scam.

1. if you deposit a large amount, they will disable your account and never reply.
2. if you contact their support they will not rely.
3. if you try to log in they will change your desk login details and then you are not allowed to reset your password.
4. You can not take your money back either!
5. Their verifications don't work on top of it, you are stuck in limbo.

They stole all of my money, took me for everything and I have never used them even once. They are truly the lowest form of scum on this planet. This is a warning to all to PULL OUT your money now as they are going to take you all for everything you have.

1. bullshit auto response that makes absolutely no sense https://postimg.org/image/hpsrl3sg1/
2. https://postimg.org/image/se13xorsx/ -  look my account is disabled on my first ever try, well I better go verify my phone number and promptly resolve this issue
3. https://postimg.org/image/g0o9qs24h/- This is 100% without question the code.  I am not going to take a picture of me looking at the phone writing this down. Guess I can't verify, oh well how about fuck them and I'll simply take my money back
4. https://gyazo.com/1bc9e156c0a30211ec5f88b596f3501d Well fuck me again, how about I read about the disabled accounts on their page to find out why a month busting my ass in two jobs is being held up
5. https://bittrex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000240791 Nothing, what about that? Shall I keep going?

I am so so angry at this that my head hurts, i'll take a rest but I will dig more evidence later. Let this be a lesson to you all, if they are selectively scamming the little guy, imagine how badly they are going to fuck up a few of the big ones.



i see whats going on. the problem is you, you cant prove that account is belong to you

Bittrex 100% legit exchange.
Anything can happen but at the moment it I had to choose bittrex and other exchange sites, after thorough investigation, I would go with Bittrex. I'm sure bittrex isn't a scam website now.

I don't think they are scam . I have used their exchange for almost a year now and I have never had any kind of problem with them. I doubt that they will try to scam anybody for just 0.1 bitcoins. They earn way more than 0.1btc through their exchange fees daily , so there are no reason that they will scam you. Its more likely that your account got hacked and somebody withdrew your bitcoins...

When will people wake up this is the new world order making everyone into slaves.Them and their secret groups working with in the us government are having their ways with you.These exchanges like hitbtc.com working with a deleware shell corporation and they can steal and nothing happens.If you steal a $5 item then guess what you go to jail for 5 years but they hitbtc.com stole 130k usd from me and nothing happens.They ask me to verify by sending scans and I did it and they now keep my money.This is able to continue because it is a conspiracy not a company and bittrex? Sound like more fbi spy on the people garbage

Even if you say bittrex is a scam with proof. I personally would never leave bittrex, because bittrex is the only exchange platform I believe the most for a long time.

Yes, me too. If I would have another choice of exchange platform that is better than Bittrex then I would go for it. Maybe in the future it would be better to trade in decentralized exchanges. I just recently read an anomaly involving them about the altcoin being dumped simultaneously in their exchange few days ago though they didn't claim that they are the one who did it. One thing for sure is that never to store your coins in an exchange if you don't trade it.

I don't think so because we never faced such problems with the Bittrex. Every day we are actively trading in the Bittrex exchange without any problem.
I think better to contact their support and asking them why they are blocking your account continuously?

and if you will lose device or reinstall app which you use for 2fa you will lose and bittrex account )

Please before you report any issue of scam, let's know the exact thing you did which lead to this problem you are facing. Some people break site rules and if they know they are being published from their wrong doing, they launch a scam accusation here.
I am not saying you did something though but maybe ...


Bitrex staff trying to play the reverse accusation card here? That won't work.


I am not in any way in connection with bittrex. I just trade there and it works fine for me. Sorry if I made a comments which hurt you.
It would interest you to know that I couldn't log into my account for several days. It was just recently that I successfully log into my account. And here is what happened:
I registered bittrex with my phone and traded there for sometime and later on, I moved from my destination to another place. This time, I tried to access my account with a laptop and i did everything possible but couldn't. Later on I used my old phone, reset password on the and same browser, and I was told to wait for a day or two to access my account. Yesterday i logged into my account successfully using my phone.
I tried using my laptop to log in and the same problem occurred again. So the issue might be as a result of using different devices to access the site And probably changing locations(IP)
https://s1.postimg.org/51zq148lzj/bittrex_proof.png (https://postimages.org/)
As at now, I can log into my account with my phone but laptop seems to have some issues.

I am not against anyone and I know how it hurt and how annoying it to be passing through this issues. I took it easy because I had no coins in my balance, what of someone with some huge amount of money in there?
Bittrex should find a way of solving this issue. It is becoming unbearable.

This is also what cointelegraph (https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-altcoin-exchange-bittrex-eyed-with-suspicion-due-to-thousands-of-mysterious-account-closings) suspects:
Quote
the most affected countries are Syria, India, Iran, Russia, Pakistan and Turkey.
Some of those countries have trade embargos against them. I'm not worried about Bittrex yet.

I just tried "enhanced verification". After uploading all images, it just says "There was an error processing your documents Please reload the page and submit your documents again. Sorry for the inconvenience." Of course reloading does nothing, like others already said.

Still not a single word from customer support.


The same here. Maybe it's for better - I'm going to look for another exchange.

This has just happened to me. And not a word from customer support.. After reading this post, I think I'm not going to trade there. So, what exchange do you recommend?

scaming on the way

It's so easy to say that given numerous complaints, but this post is just 6 pages long after nearly 5 months.  Most of the posts are general responses or people stating they have never had any problems, so even 6 pages is misleading.  I'm not saying there isn't an issue.  They could be fine, or about to crumble.  Who ever knows in crypto land?.  All I'm saying is you've seen the volume there right?  If this sort of thing was systemic we'd be well over page 100.  Posting "scamming on the way' is an alarmist comment backed, relative to the seemingly large Bittrex userbase, a small number of one sided stories.  Is the OP giving the full account?

Ok, so manshed wrote -

1. if you deposit a large amount, they will disable your account and never reply.

If you deposit a truly large amount of money without the required verification of course your account will be suspended.  It's like dumping thousands on a card.  Visa/Mastercard WILL check to make sure it's all kosher before letting you continue on. You say in point 5 "Their verification doesn't work".  So you only had basic verification before depositing this 'large sum'?  I'm not sure if you're large sum is 0.11BTC, cos that's far from large.  If that's it, what on earth would Bittrex want with your 0.11BTC?!  I did the math and they make about a USD1M a day on trading fees alone.  Then add in their cut of withdrawal fees. 0.11BTC... for real?  

2. if you contact their support they will not rely.

That sucks, and happens often in all sorts of unregulated markets.  If you got an answer and it's now resolved, not telling the people you've alarmed is bad form.

3. if you try to log in they will change your desk login details and then you are not allowed to reset your password.

If there's some issue with your account disallowing password changes is good practice.

4. You can not take your money back either!

Disabling withdrawals on a disabled account.  You're seriously surprised by this?
https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001352132-Why-is-my-account-disabled - There's your FAQ page btw.
  
5. Their verifications don't work on top of it, you are stuck in limbo.

Not sure why you think you ought to be able to do all these things on a disabled account.  I do at least agree that you shouldn't be stuck in limbo.  Having said that, I'd think someone who put so much effort in to their scam alert post would hang around a bit longer than 1 day if things were still unresolved.

I'm not a Bittrex shill (though I would say that even if I was).  I've used them alongside numerous exchanges for the last 6 months or so and have traded/withdrawn/deposited a lot more than 0.11btc many times.  Enhanced verification was no hassle.  On the flip side, I was literally a mouse click away from sending thousands to BTC-e just days before they crashed and burned.  Though suspiciously elusive, they'd been in operation without issue longer than any crypto exchange.  I wasn't clear on a small piece of wording on my new banks online transfer form so I cancelled the deposit until I got around to clarifying.  Thank you Citibank for your crappy wire transfer form :).

I'm pretty much just saying do your own research, don't just immediately take a bitcointalk scam alert post as the truth.  It's hard not to.  We're wired to believe everything we're told.  Literally.  Then we use our learned knowledge to decide, in nanoseconds, whether we know or believe it to be true or not.  In the OP's case I believe there's more to it.

FYI, writing distracts me (usually pen/paper, but any port in a storm), and I needed distraction from the frustration of being AFK for the discovery of block 491,407.... because we ran out of butter.  I thought it wouldn't take long at the shop.  It did.

Account also disabled and stuck in verification hell.

Been stuck for two weeks now - uploaded a perfectly good passport and selfie, absolutely nothing wrong with either, then was stuck on a verification loop for a week. Multiple support requests, no response.

Finally, they fixed the bug and now it just says to contact support. Upload the selfie + passport again into the support ticket, Another week goes by, nothing.

2 weeks and these guys are fast to take your money, but getting it out is completely banned, and for what? it's my fucking money I deposited!

My credentials are perfect, but after complete radio silence this is just a perfect example of a very large exchange that doesn't have the will to give a fuck about its customers.

If I had a time machine i'd go back and never do business with these guys. And buy bitcoin at 3 cents ofc.

I know that enhanced verification isn't necessary to withdraw/deposit at most exchanges, including Bittrex, but why take the chance of problems?  You obviously had the required documents to get it done.  I know they use Jumio verification which is automated, so if you can't use that anymore you are at the mercy of human intervention.  

Just one thing to keep in mind.  Crypto has exploded.  I've noticed exchanges taking a LOT longer to verify.  2 weeks is far from unusual now.  It's still not good enough.  They're making more money with the boom so they can afford to hire enough support to respond in 48hrs at most.  Tether is by far the most hilarious.  Or sad... I prefer to see the funny side.  I was about 2300 in their queue ages proly 6 months ago.  I'd only move up like 2 or 3 places a day!  I had a bet with a friend whether it would go through before 2018.  I lost, they actually sent me the ok a few days ago.

I make it a hard rule to immediately verify to the highest (regular) level before depositing a thing.  I think quite a few of these situations would be avoided if everyone did that.  Not all, but surely some.  Even if you've truly done nothing wrong, something has triggered this and now your stuck trying to do something you could have done well before putting your hard earned money on the table.  Don't you think there's at least a chance you'd better off if you'd verified first?  Anyway, unless you've deposited so much money that an exchange which makes a million a day would be tempted to steal it, it's almost certainly an erroneous system trigger.  Not a ploy to take what is probably small fry to them.  Annoying, but not a scam.

Now I'm pretty much just writing/posting so I'm no longer a 'newbie'.  Only been a member for 2+ years :).  I am still moderately curious about these scam claims.  History's proven it absolutely does happen, but I'm just not sure it happens much on such a small, individual basis.

I have traded with bittrex for quite some time now. And i think sometimes accounts are blocked for reasons afforementioned in their privacy policy (and updates).

A case in point is one owning multiple accounts and not disclosing them, and trading with himself using the different accounts.

True their support takes ages just like almost all exchanges, and this should be worked upon urgently as they make lots of money. No ones money should ever be held captive.

This is good advice, but in reality its not practical when you need to pick up a trade on something and don't have time to wait days/weeks to get verified before the price goes up.

When I created my account, even non-verified basic accounts could still withdraw. That changed 3 days after I joined. Interestingly, the newer your account the less you can withdraw. I can currently withdraw 0 BTC.

Regardless, doing enhanced verification was the very first thing I did. I'm not doing any shady, and using all my real info so why should I worry about being rejected or being stuck in hell? Bittrex is meant to be a reputable exchange. Through no fault of my own I was screwed by a policy change days after joining, along with a buggy verification process. They deserve to be called out until they improve their service.

Are you a share holder there? If not, so why in the hell you are covering their ass? It is not about segwit obviously. They have put their hands on people's deposits with false claims about verification policy. It is a multilayer scam that is accomplished indecently.

Given a site is suspicious about one's identity, it can just cut  access to the service instead of stealing his/her money! It is ridiculous and rude.   Bittrex is definitely a scam, no doubts, no arguments, just accept it and deal with it. They do their scam in a sophisticated manner: like a reptile, they crawl, they choose their victims then they hunt and hide behind their large user base and make excuses about the screams and complaints saying: "hey! it is just about less than a percent of our users, others are safe" for now(they mean). It is essentially based on a ponzi like scheme: collect thousands of users, choose ones who have little or no access to your jurisdiction authorities, rip them off and don't worry, new users are coming!

Be wise, get your coins  out of this shitty site and don't argue!

I understand, but can't agree.  No trade, whether it's rational or FOMO is more important than peace of mind, or whatever you like to call it.  There will always be another good trade.  That's just me though.  I know most are used to being given a limited deposit/withdrawal amount without much verification.  Unfortunately with the boom comes a lot more thieves, hackers, scammers, launderers, pressure from government/authority to verify, and so on.  Exchanges have clearly been upping the KYC/AML ante lately.  There's a hell of a lot more at stake for them right now than most care to consider.      

I definitely agree with you about crap support.  I just got on to IC Markets (Forex exchange) live support a few hours ago as I needed them to change my email address.  An hour later it was all sorted. ASIC regulation is famously tough and basically forces that sort of immediate action.  Lots of people don't want governments to get involved in crypto, and personally I'm no fan of them either, but answering to nobody?....

Glad to hear you at least figured out the issue. @aliashraf  Am I still a newbie? :)

@aliashraf - What am I, invisible?  I've gone to great lengths to be abused by a mental person and I'm completely overlooked.  Damn, same post.  Still a newbie :(

They should explain why this happened and whose behind that..

BTC-e management was never prosecuted. They were invited for questioning, but since they payed 0 attention FBI seized domain name and servers of BTC-E (I still wonder how come they have hosted infrastructure in USA). Real BTC-E owners remains unknown and probably located somewhere in Russia. Since all server contents was encrypted WEX.nz (It's BTC-e in disuise) easily restored trading platform that now operates from singapore. They also received all digital (not FIAT though) assets (database, BTC and all) from it's predecessors. Wex sucessfuly continued to operate, however since they lost all Fiat of their customers they issued custom Wex tokens (IOUs of wex to repay debts of BTC-e). Now they keep on trading and slowly recovering from what happened seemingly out of reach from US government. They also implemented somwhat loose KYC/AML but it is still one of the best place to exit BTC into fiat without giving away too much of your privacy.

I have read and copied bittrex terms and conditions I have also made a video on all of their terms. so that if they change them in future, I would know that it has been manipulated and that's not what I have agreed upon while registration.
every body can has their own copy of the terms and you can also make a movie of your account and your coins your deposits and their tx and withdraws and tx. so that if they delete your account you have a document.
in their terms they have mentioned that they can terminate and disable an account without notice but they will return all his coins

This tin foil hat thread makes me laugh....

Why would a multi million dollar company that is right around the corner of the largest financial revolution and growth seen of all time,  steal your lousy .1 btc.... It makes no sense for a company that makes ten of thousands of dollars in fees every hour, to just rip people off of small insignificant  amounts of money.

Further more, with the IRS and SEC now getting more and more involved in crypto they are looking at exchanges like Polo and Bittrex based in the USA even closer than ever before, These companies will start facing audits of not only business practices and policy but even there back end codes, and customer security that just how these things work.  They will eventually face the same regulations like Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase. 

I'm sorry but you have to face the fact that you more than likely did something wrong. (people make mistakes it happens) Be it send it to a wrong address, copy your wallet address incorrectly, clicking on a phishing link, or even as simple as having a compromised computer with virus or maleware that steal your coins. etc etc.

The staff at Bittrex has better things to do than take a break from running there site to steal you at the time 200 dollars in bitcoin when they make that almost instantly.

And as for the individuals complaining about how bittrex disable and locked out a number of accounts with out warning....Well please refer to my previous statement, federal agencies are closely monitoring crypto and bittrex went ahead and removed accounts that didn't have proper ID verification, or where located in countries that the banking industry deems "High Risk" Welcome to the end of the Wild West of crypto. While it sucks that this space will be getting regulated, I had a great time learning all about it and staking my positions and now over the next few years we will see real serious institutional money coming into crypto Bitcoin Eth Dash Monero etc etc

Best of luck.

Still, people are facing problems with the Bittrex by disabling the account. Why should people face these types of problems because they need to ask those before registering into Bittrex and after sending payment and making some money through trading. For withdrawal they are asking for verification lol lot of funny.

That what we call "Unknown Reason", bitterx accepted people and allow them trading even without basic verify for more than two Years, and then block them without any notification. It's very clear ... Poloniex before denied access to accounts but allowed users withdraw their funds. Why bitterx not allow us withdraw? Who's behind that?..
"Bitterx Disabled Accounts List" should be created with full details.

I got my account enhanced verification in 10 mins, no problem, very promptly service...... that I thought they were....
Something happened!! when I saw my account stayed enhanced verified every time I login, 2 months later, I deposited 5 ETH, when I went to balance and saw my 5 ETH arrived, I was happy, and try to trade! When I trid to withdraw some coins in the same day before I went to sleep,  boom! I couldn't withdraw the coins and I got a message my account was an unverified account, what they got me like this:

*******************************************************************************
Name Mismatch
We have failed to automatically process your documents due to your name from your basic application not matching what is found on your document. They will need to be manually reviewed. Please contact our support desk. Manual review typically takes 7 days but could be longer based on demand.
*******************************************************************************


The system used my email as my first name! it is not everyone using the real name in front @ of all their emails they have, if someone's email is funnyguy@gmail.com, so their fast name must be FunnyGuy? when I submited my passport copy and my selfie, is bittrex system you told me all my information and identification was fine, why you suddenly disable my account after I deposited coins? why you said the info was matched before and disable me after I deposited coins but not disable it before? you have 2 months time to do so after I sucessfully got the account enhanced verified, but you bittrex trapped people when they deposited coin.  Not it has been a month since I submitted the first CS ticket, and still no response.

All bittrex supporters and fans, you still think bittrex trustworthy?  Show us the way we can reach them first! they don't even answer people but just keep your account untouch, you can say they never scam your money your money still in your bittrex account, you can login and see it! whatever, yea you are right!!! but you just never get your coin back forever.

This tin foil hat thread makes me laugh....

Why would a multi million dollar company that is right around the corner of the largest financial revolution and growth seen of all time,  steal your lousy .1 btc.... It makes no sense for a company that makes ten of thousands of dollars in fees every hour, to just rip people off of small insignificant  amounts of money.

Further more, with the IRS and SEC now getting more and more involved in crypto they are looking at exchanges like Polo and Bittrex based in the USA even closer than ever before, These companies will start facing audits of not only business practices and policy but even there back end codes, and customer security that just how these things work.  They will eventually face the same regulations like Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase. 

I'm sorry but you have to face the fact that you more than likely did something wrong. (people make mistakes it happens) Be it send it to a wrong address, copy your wallet address incorrectly, clicking on a phishing link, or even as simple as having a compromised computer with virus or maleware that steal your coins. etc etc.

The staff at Bittrex has better things to do than take a break from running there site to steal you at the time 200 dollars in bitcoin when they make that almost instantly.

And as for the individuals complaining about how bittrex disable and locked out a number of accounts with out warning....Well please refer to my previous statement, federal agencies are closely monitoring crypto and bittrex went ahead and removed accounts that didn't have proper ID verification, or where located in countries that the banking industry deems "High Risk" Welcome to the end of the Wild West of crypto. While it sucks that this space will be getting regulated, I had a great time learning all about it and staking my positions and now over the next few years we will see real serious institutional money coming into crypto Bitcoin Eth Dash Monero etc etc

Best of luck.

a multi million dollar company did that already because he is not only one disabled his account, but the point is who's wrong? BITTERX OR BITTERX - NO WAY- sorry to said that, but bitterx started with those an verified accounts  ( ofcourse those bad guys help the bitterx to be as you are happy now) now bitterx never care about disabled accounts even most of them verified and approved ( like me) just follow the rules. It's ok do that! But we are inside the race, legally we have records  and proofs that we are a memebers for long time ( and still bitterx in US ) and we trade and deposit, withdraw, etc. I think you get the sense now!
Bitterx have to explain and take an action ASAP due this Unknown Reason because we lost both time and money

Hi isamamin@gmail.com,
There's nothing in the account to "steal" so you have no loss.

Unless you provide proof of residency and ID in a region not OFAC banned, I cannot enable your account.

Your IP address is traced to xxxx as well
It's so funny, 2 years ago Bitterx accepted all IPs, and now  Bitterx make more money and want to follow OFAC rules and Access Denied all those accounts and IPs. ..
So why not close our accounts instead of kidding and take all this time?
We have a real funds inside and by the LAW, we registered and trade, Deposit,  Withdraw, all that without basic account and with that unwanted ips, now Bitterx talk about verification? Who's fool here?
Now stole my money. .

Please before you report any issue of scam, let's know the exact thing you did which lead to this problem you are facing. Some people break site rules and if they know they are being published from their wrong doing, they launch a scam accusation
I am not saying you did something though but maybe ...

I agree, first of all if a person wanted to deposit or withdraw a huge amount of coins, the website has a right to get your personal info whether your deposit/withdraw is exceeding the limit or not that's why we need first to verify our identity and 2fa to avoid uncertainty, maybe the OP has really did something wrong or maybe it's a misunderstanding that is needed to be solve or maybe the OP is right?

I don't see any problem with what trading scenarios I had with that site. Maybe I will check if I am having any trades in the future, and its quite too long period of time I do have transactions with this trading site as well. We should be careful in dealing with trading sites because if that's a legit incident that scam is really happening, well that really a big loss of money.

I deposit some bitcoin to Bittrex and want to get some eth for ICO, however, I found out that we could not withdraw anything without verification. and So I upload the documents they needed.
and I meet the Name Mismatch after substitution . And I contact their support and create a ticket. However, beside the auto reply message, they didnt say anything about it. and mark the ticket as resolved. so I create another followup ticket to they, and they do not reply anything until now, it is already a month something....

what could we do other than talking in here or ask their support :(

i opened an account back in august after they were recommended by someone who has traded a lot on there exchange and still does to this day without issue
i deposited about £200 and started to trade alt coins,i also transferred some of my own coins into there to trade.

everything was fine up until 4 weeks ago,i tried to log in and my account was blocked,i logged out and back in again sametime and funnily enough it was unblocked,thought this was strange as i have 2fa set up on the account but the second time it wasnt required for login
i got spooked so i mailed them to say there might be an issue with 2fa
next time i logged in,my account is blocked and cannot be unblocked automatically by myself,since then i have tried to use the zendesk with no luck whatsoever,sent a suport ticket,heard nothing at all for weeks

i then receive a reply to my support ticket asking me if im still blocked !!! WTF ....there asking me if im blocked
replied to the ticket to say im still blocked and could they please unblock my account,to date ive heard nothing whatsoever from them
i wish i had never registered an account,i can still login but cant withdraw etc,my friend is trading daily with no issues
im so confused as to what exactly is going on with them,i heard something about compliance investigations etc and that certain accounts are being looked at to make sure no laundering etc,i doubt whether my £200 deposit would alert the anti money laundering team but still im blocked with no light at the end of the tunnel

OK. I can relate to a lot of victims here and i have personally lost $84,000 (you are reading it correctly) worth of BTC in the month of August, 2017.
I have been going back and forth with their representing lawyer (Joseph Cutler of Perkins Coie LLP).

I strongly suggest that since we have so many victims of BITTREX scam we should reach out to CFPB (consumer financial protection bureau). This agency goes by volume irrespective of the monetary value.

THis is my second life as the first scam where i lost all the funds almost gave me a heart attack.

And all could get back from BITTREX is we are sorry that your funds were lost and they cannot protect against such hacking attacks.

BITTREX is an exchange and BTC is currency. There is no comparison. The issues is that the trading platform is compromised or their code is and we are the victims.

I'm highly surprised with so many negative reviews, BITTREX has not been impacted in any way and they continue to scam their clients without any explanations.

I'm convinced that they know the issue very well and intentionally not doing anything as they are not regulated by the SEC.

I must say I'm less amused with Bittrex now. They (finally) limited my account, so I can only withdraw 0.025BTC (update after 3 days:) 0.000BTC per day. I've upgraded to Basic, and after filling out their form, they tell me I need to upgrade to Enhanced. I still don't have Basic verification now.
If they would have told me that instantly, I wouldn't have upgraded at all. Now they know who I am, and want an unedited picture of my ID (which my own government recommends me NOT to do!), and a selfie, which I don't feel comfortable doing.
Who knows what else they require after this. I don't like the fact that they don't give a full list, but slowly add more requirements after fulfilling the first requirements!

I don't want to send personal information to a company that doesn't even show who's behind it. I didn't care much before, but after I click ABOUT, I get this:

more or less the same here. one day i logged in and it said my year and a half old basic account wasnt verified as there was no public records match to my info, which is bull as all info is accurate and certainly in public records in the usa. so my limit is like .01 btc a day. and there is no way i am sending them scanned documents to up my level. stupidly i had sent some altcoin there to exchange to BTC and withdraw but now i am stuck pulling it out bit by bit with around 15% withdrawal fees due to the small size of the withdrawal.

ah well, whatever. once its done im out.

more or less the same here. one day i logged in and it said my year and a half old basic account wasnt verified as there was no public records match to my info, which is bull as all info is accurate and certainly in public records in the usa. so my limit is like .01 btc a day. and there is no way i am sending them scanned documents to up my level. stupidly i had sent some altcoin there to exchange to BTC and withdraw but now i am stuck pulling it out bit by bit with around 15% withdrawal fees due to the small size of the withdrawal.

ah well, whatever. once its done im out.

Same here, pretty pissed off. Good luck getting your funds out. I was planning on doing that, but they changed the withdrawal amount from 0.025 to 0 the next day.
Basic verification not possible, as their third party verification company is US based.

I must say I'm less amused with Bittrex now. They (finally) limited my account, so I can only withdraw 0.025BTC per day. I've upgraded to Basic, and after filling out their form, they tell me I need to upgrade to Enhanced. I still don't have Basic verification now.

yeah looks like my withdrawal limit has been lowered to zero now. so there is about 500 USD stuck (ripped off iow) there.

i figure its me paying the Stupid Tax. live and learn.

DO NOT TRUST BITTREX as who knows what they will do next.

Same thing here, $1.5k stuck...

I opened a support ticket over 21 days ago for manual verification. I got an automatic reply. Days later I opened a second new ticket. Now I got a real person reply saying: " and due to increased volume in tickets we are experiencing longer support times than usual".

Read the Bittrex twitter, google a bit, you will find dozens of people saying the same thing:
"I have been locked",
"I can't take my money out!",
"Give me back my money!",
"Scammers!", etc.

This is really awful... Something has to be done

The issue [like everyone else in this thread] is that when you want to withdraw your btc, YOU CAN'T.  It's stuck in their exchange and they don't respond to support requests.

I use bittrex since a couple of months ago, Sampey recommended to me, maybe because i am an European citizen, and first i upgraded my account after that i put the money, maybe thats why i am not blocked, bittrex does have flaws when suddenly the network crashes when there are lots of buying and selling which made me lose big, the thing is that i never had the problems with the deposit or withdrawal. weird, they definitely have very low quality customer service

BELOW IS A POST from REDDIT FORUM DIRECTLY FROM A WHISTLE BLOWER AT BITTREX EXCHANGE.

You may have not noticed this because of such a large userbase, but it has been happening to not only Bitcoin but other altcoins, as well. From sources I will not name, people have lost 20 BTC to 2000 BTC on a weekly basis.
They have been doing it in increments so you don't notice the 0.0001 decrease in value. Considering they have so many members, it adds up.
Have you realized that their support system is essentially useless? You ask a question, and you get an automated response saying something a long the lines of "Has your question been answered? If not, please reply in 2 days or we will close your complaint." Then you reply, and the same message comes up again.
I am an an employee of Bittrex and Bitcoin Cash has caused a stir in the development community. People are hacking and stealing money, and this is coming from our own organization.
If you feel like this has happened to you, their legal counsel is Joseph Cutler. He has worked in the cryptocommunity for years and has countless skeletons in his closet such as fraud, deceit, prejudice, collusion and many other illegal malpractice.
I currently still work for Bittrex and plan to quit, but as a community we should come together and file a class action lawsuit against them. If you would like to know more about their legal counsel, the website is: www.perkinscoie.com/en/professionals/joseph-p-cutler.html

I just dumped my btg from my ledger to trex and back in btc to my ledger and I guess I am lucky to have not been screwed by them?

I need to catch up on what's going on with trex.. But this is what I know..

Long yonder back in the day I arbed some netcoin from cryptsy to bittrex when net saw new iirc and so my trex account was born..
I never used trex much except really for arbing or dumping crap I got somehow.. Never really heaviliy traded trex because it has no trollbox..
About a year ago I suppose I noticed my trex account was a "legacy" account or something and I thought it was cool, heck yeah recognition for having an OG account..
A while after that the legacy thing disapeared I think.. Then something like I couldn't withdraw some dust from a shitcoin dump I made there and I just gave them my address and stuff.. Don't remember if I gave them my DL or not to be honest..
I have recently used trex to dump on bch and btg, and nothing intertesting other than the usual dropping a deuce at trex.
I wish my toilet would pay me for dropping shit in it like trex pays me for dropping off my shitcoins.. 

So IDK guys, I think my trex account works but I got pretty nervous seeing this commotion recently while I have had BTG there waiting on 10 confirms..

I've only ever held coin in trex when I was activly ARBing, I'd just leave my balance there until I found a proitable way out, had a balance in many exchanges..
Arbing was great at the end of cryptsy and for a while thereafter.. topia yaarbatrage was great, I had nowhere to really comfortably trade when I lost cryptsy so I was arbing..

Wish you guys luck with your trex problems, if their is to be a big problem hopefully their is a productive door to kick in somewhere in las vegas..

3. if you try to log in they will change your desk login details and then you are not allowed to reset your password.
4. You can not take your money back either!
5. Their verifications don't work on top of it, you are stuck in limbo.

They stole all of my money, took me for everything and I have never used them even once. They are truly the lowest form of scum on this planet. This is a warning to all to PULL OUT your money now as they are going to take you all for everything you have.

4. https://gyazo.com/1bc9e156c0a30211ec5f88b596f3501d Well fuck me again, how about I read about the disabled accounts on their page to find out why a month busting my ass in two jobs is being held up
5. https://bittrex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000240791 Nothing, what about that? Shall I keep going?

I am so so angry at this that my head hurts, i'll take a rest but I will dig more evidence later. Let this be a lesson to you all, if they are selectively scamming the little guy, imagine how badly they are going to fuck up a few of the big ones.

From what I see, some users passing verification and have unlocked withdrawals.
(example: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=463202.msg25343373#msg25343373)

Is the problem is that the accounts are set up for fake data and Bittrex without an announcement demanded verification or do not want to verify accounts at all?

The 'problem' is that they are locking funds of users who have been trading there for years without warning. That borders if not equals theft.
Also, their online verification partner Jumio went bankrupt in 2016 and is owned by a co-founder of facebook. Their tos states they'll sell it all for the right profit.

I'm also having the same problem with them my ticket was over 18 days , no reply I try to reached them through their slack channel they told me tickets take several weeks especial the low priority until yesterday they kick my ass out of their Slack.
My money was stuck there no trading , No withdrawal , nothing and nothing empty account.

I wish they would just let me withdraw from their site and move on with my life. They really got me angry and stressed yesterday. I have even uploaded my passport. Why do these exchanges not have support? I guess it's difficult to find people but if you are making that kind of money have a plan. I am going to wait another day and then keep on a posting run warning everyone to avoid these people. I'll try to be more understanding but jesus, they even banned me from the chat room for asking.

Really friend 0.11BTC and a very small amount of somehow so the bittrex might want to steal. What happens and due to the skyrocketing price of btc has brought many new customers and all exchanges are not accounting for the volume the service is horrible.
With a little patience you should be able to get your bitcoins back.

I would get it if they - for whatever reason - want to block people from using their services. The right way to do this is to disable deposits, disable trading, and let users withdraw their funds.
What they're doing now is forcing people to get full-scale verification to be able to trade 100BTC ($1 million!) per day. They know that if they would allow users to withdraw, those users are gone forever. And they also know that users who are forced to send full verification up to crazy selfies, are more likely to use the service after they had to verify anyway.

It's very unethical to use people's own money to force them to do things they don't want to, and indeed, that comes very close to theft.
I'm curious to see if they actually get away with this, cause if they do, they steal a small fortune. Kinda like the Mt.Gox guy who gets almost a billion dollars profit out of going bankrupt.

until this is solved, use bittrex with caution, do not store more than you're willing to loose on their exchange

If you can withdraw your money, do it. This exchange is absolute garbage. Run by greedy fucks. Having to verify just to withdraw cryptos is stupid. I didn't have to verify to deposit now, did I? Oh of course not, they will allow you to deposit 1 million btc if you want but withdraw?? OH NO, WE DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO WITHDRAW, they might be money laundering, oh come on, fuck off. If I ever get verified I will just withdraw everything and never comeback to this idiotic exchange. No one should use this, ever.

If being able to withdraw my funds meant sending a selfie, I'd do it.  My issue is that I started a support ticket to find out what the next step is to verify my account but it's been 7 days and I still haven't received a reply.

The problem with this verification stuff is that the BASIC verify does not work, at least I've not seen a single person report being able to withdraw after submitting Basic information. I submitted mine a month back and the 'system' returned a msg about not being able to find me or some garbage. I've lived in the same house and have had the same phone number for a long time, I know damn well the info was correct. The only way to get your money back, as of right now at least, is to go through their full photo w/ ID process.

They should have allowed people who already had funds on the site a period of time to withdraw their coins before implementing these new rules.

Bittrex has blocked my account without previous notification. The verification they ask for is not working. I posted a ticket and got no response like many others...In the website they say it could take more than a week to verify my ID. This is totally unacceptable and so unprofessional. Please do not use this website it looks to me as this is A TOTAL SCUM. I will give them one week and a half and then take legal action to claim my money.

Remember they are not reliable and probably if you use their service you will put your coins at risk.

7 days isn't that long since there are some members who sent their IDs over a month ago , but still bittrex hasn't responded or paid them the money
IDK why people are still using them when they are clearly seeing how bittrex is treating some members
the only way to stop their behavior is to stop using them , it's so easy to scam  when the community don't care about others problems

Hi guys.

Sadly, i've been scammed too.

I still can deposit as much as i want on my bittrex account, but i can't withdaw even one satoshi. This is very very unfair.

It's important to inform everyone about bittrex actions as soon as possible. This situation remember me so much Cryptsy story... do you remember it? Lot of people where experiencing delays in withdawals from cryptsy exchange... then one day they simply disappeared.

If you still can withdraw your fund, do it as soon as possible.... before you get a 0 btc withdrawal limit, without notice.

1. if you deposit a large amount, they will disable your account and never reply.
2. if you contact their support they will not rely.
3. if you try to log in they will change your desk login details and then you are not allowed to reset your password.
4. You can not take your money back either!
5. Their verifications don't work on top of it, you are stuck in limbo.

They stole all of my money, took me for everything and I have never used them even once. They are truly the lowest form of scum on this planet. This is a warning to all to PULL OUT your money now as they are going to take you all for everything you have.

1. bullshit auto response that makes absolutely no sense https://postimg.org/image/hpsrl3sg1/
2. https://postimg.org/image/se13xorsx/ -  look my account is disabled on my first ever try, well I better go verify my phone number and promptly resolve this issue
3. https://postimg.org/image/g0o9qs24h/- This is 100% without question the code.  I am not going to take a picture of me looking at the phone writing this down. Guess I can't verify, oh well how about fuck them and I'll simply take my money back
4. https://gyazo.com/1bc9e156c0a30211ec5f88b596f3501d Well fuck me again, how about I read about the disabled accounts on their page to find out why a month busting my ass in two jobs is being held up
5. https://bittrex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000240791 Nothing, what about that? Shall I keep going?

I am so so angry at this that my head hurts, i'll take a rest but I will dig more evidence later. Let this be a lesson to you all, if they are selectively scamming the little guy, imagine how badly they are going to fuck up a few of the big ones.



This is terrible. Thanks for the heads up.

Similar issues here. Name Mismatch on account verification and suddenly I can't access my money. Opened a support ticket but been ignored for almost 2 weeks now.

I was able to sent over $2k (which grew to $6k) but can't get it out!

I was never informed while putting the money in that I need to be verified to withdraw it. I'm not sure what they are playing at but here in UK this is illegal. It's up to them to make sure people entering legal agreement with them have access to all the info ( e.g. couple weeks back, there was a court case where guy successfully argued he didn't need to pay a parking fine, he parked illegally but he got away with it because the signs were not easily visible from where he parked). I'm a professional person, not some student using his pocket money to do a bit of trading. I'm really busy now until Christmas but if my issue is not resolved by then I'm starting a legal process.

Whenever you enable 2fa they give you a code in case something like that happens. So there is already a solution, you just didn't save the code. It doesn't matter whether you enable 2fa on bittrex or not though, they still wont let me withdraw, pathetic exchange.

No, bittrex is a scam and if you can withdraw you should right now. Thousands of users are trying to get their accounts verified but their support system hasn't responded for months. Check their twitter: https://twitter.com/BittrexExchange They don't even care, they respond to like 3-4 tickets now and then and call it a day, it's pathetic and borderline scam.

Where are you from @ngelcryptopia? I bet you are usa or canadian citizen, that is why  you are not having problems with your bittrex account, because they prefer to fuck with middle-east or eastern-european citizens. My account has been disabled since October and guess what, nobody at bittrex gives a fuck about that, so anybody here who can provide a legal advise is most welcome.

They should disable DEPOSIT for unverified users, and then send notice to every single user prior to disable their withdrawal.

Same effect but done in a fair way.

I am basically in exactly the same situation as you, UK, mismatch on account verification (had no idea it would scrape it from basic verification which didn't include my middle names), been about 2 weeks (my support ticket was opened on nov 16th) but I got over 20k USD in there. Been a loyal customer of theirs since January 2014 and I'd never had any trouble with them until this. Shocking how they don't tweet out a public statement regarding the backlog, even knowing that they are actually working on it would ease a lot of nerves and help prevent people run away from the exchange like rats on a sinking ship. Another thing that would easily stop the backlog building up like others have suggested is allowing for the basic verification to be re-done and not allowing the registration of new accounts temporarily. The fact that they are not being transparent about it combined with what feel like intentional pitfalls in the verification process and the lack of ability to pull any funds all show that something fishy is going on here. I hope I am proven wrong and that members of the team come out and inform the public whats going on. Can someone with slack access please sit in slack and just report what the team are saying (if anything)?

Perhaps they have a backroom deal with authorities seeking to identify crypto currency holders and only release accounts when they get a clear from higher up.

Who ever feel free to change the policy without notice and let the user decide if the new policy fits them or not, and not allowing them to withdraw the funds without notice is a scammer, this is the first step, next step they will whatever they like .

Yes, sometimes it is making frustration because how can simply they leave the money without any reason they are blocking the accounts is really something they need to take care of the customers. We have to be very careful with these exchanges because they are changing rules according to their convenience.

I just posted a more lengthy account in another thread but in essence I am now stuck like many others here.

In summary:

Legacy account holder > 3 years without verification.
Last successful withdrawal of ~0.15 BTC was November 1st of this year.
Went to withdrawal remaining balance ~0.15 BTC today and got exceed limit message.
Tried to do basic verification and it said unable to verify.
They now want me to do enhanced verification, lol right.

Sad thing is this reminds me of Cryptsy just before they went under. People started reporting having withdrawal problems, they hid behind the KYC and AML laws while in reality they were exit scamming. History may not repeat exactly, but it often rhymes.

Well, if nothing else I guess I can use this to offset some of my taxable gains this year.

Keep in mind that their verifier third party Jumio is in the hands of a guy that co-started facebook. Their TOS states they'll sell their ID data to anyone for profit. Because of this, I'm never going to send these clowns my ID. For now, I'm viewing my stuck balance as casualty of war.

What you mean their ID data to anyone? Even if their TOS says that, it's still illegal to sell passports and other ID's. By the way it seems that they are actually verifying more accounts now, I've seen some people that got verified and bittrex support even apologized for it so I guess there is still hope. I'm still going to withdraw everything as soon as I can tho.

Do you read anything ever? If yes, Don't you understand what people are talking about here or you think we are all liars just because you have not been ripped by bittrex (yet ;) ). Isn't it a very bad choice to wait for a scammer to scam you as well and then decide to run? What's the point of sharing news and experiences after all?

Bittrex is the worst case I have ever read about and experienced, they are sophisticated, they enjoy a large user base, they choose their victims based on a carefully designed policy, they pay to media to remain silent and they use the users stolen funds to run large pump and dump and other illegal activities in the market. They are rude and greedy.

None of these characteristics have anything to do with being  busy or not. Actually, pretending to be too busy to give people's deposits back is one of the many strategies Bittrex has followed from the first beginning and no offense when a person tries to wash Bittrex's ugly scammy face with such an excuse I have no choice other than becoming suspicious about the incentives and honesty.

agree with you, they are running a scam, look at how they go totally silent on this issue and not attending to tickets for up to 3 months!! without any explanation at all to those victims!! and they target overseas victims because they know that overseas victims especially those from middle east and russia are less likely gonna take action against these scums

i have a theory that they actually sold the bitcoins that we deposited into bittrex when bitcoins was ATH at 9-11k around october and made alot of money out of it, that is when the accounts were disabled and the withdrawal limit dropped to 0 for unverified accounts. when people want their bitcoin back, those scums realised that they didnt have enough bitcoins to give back to the rightful owners, hence they disable all withdrawals and pretending to require verification for all accounts while in actual fact they already sold our bitcoins, and in the meantime trying to raise as many bitcoins as they can through transaction fees charged in tradings in bittrex, they hope they can raise back the bitcoin amount to return it to us. this explains why the verification and enabling of account takes so slow, its not slow, but they just dont have the bitcoins to return to everyone, they know that by enabling all accounts now it will trigger a bank run and everyone will withdraw all the bitcoins out of bittrex, hence the slow process of verification for all users.

I also have a bitterx problem. So far, withdrawals have worked, but after a while the payout did not work. I had the Basic verification met. They wanted Enhanced Verification, I sent the necessary documents, but the verification failed. I sent a request to their recommendation at https://support.bittrex.com/. I've been waiting for 12 days. No response has been received so far to help me solve this problem.
I do not know what's going on with Bittrex. I have been registered for 3 years and I was satisfied with it. I'm a little skeptical now. I also have the BTC arrested on my account. I wait and see.

They also destroy you if you are from certain countries as they will only accept passport or drivers license. I have a friend that can't get verified because of that. He is Brazilian and they wont accept any other type of ID and it seems that almost no one has a passport there and only a small percentage of people own a drivers license. This is a scam, one way or the other, they are absolutely scamming people.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2525770.0

Don't fall for scams guys, if you really want the ticket to be seen faster you can use the 2fa ''trick''. You can send them another ticket but using ''disable 2fa'' and telling them you need your 2fa to be disabled. They will ask you for your balance, a few transaction ids and IP to disable your 2fa. You should give them all that + Id and Id+selfie+piece of paper with date and bittrex written on it.

The point is to make them answer you. You are ''tricking'' them into believing you can't access your account, this triggers their system and you will get an automated response. You can then respond to that ticket with your id and selfie and it seems that they will check it faster that way.

Over the past couple of months, Bittrex has been in the process of improving its identity verification procedures.  There are a number of reasons to improve our processes, including that improved identity procedures help protect Bittrex users from theft and fraud, and prevent abuse of the Bittrex platform.  In addition, Bittrex must comply with the Bank Secrecy Act, U.S. economic sanctions laws, and other legal and regulatory requirements.  Bittrex takes these compliance obligations seriously.  We are committed to making sure our services are not used to launder money, support terrorism, commit fraud or other illegal activities.
 
We understand that our verification process can be frustrating or a hassle.  We have heard your complaints and are working promptly to address each individual support ticket in our system.  But, we cannot do this without the help of our customers.  We have provided below a list of common mistakes or issues that arise during our improved identity verification process that tends to increase the delay in completing the process successfully:
 
Creating multiple accounts associated with a single individual or entity:  Unless you have received prior approval from Bittrex, our system will disable all additional accounts associated with a single individual or entity.  This issue needs to be resolved manually by our support staff.  Given the necessity of manual intervention and the number of tickets we have received lately, there have been significant delays in resolving these issues.  Please do not create multiple accounts.
Name mismatch: If your government issued ID has a different name than the one you provided to Bittrex, your account will not be able to withdraw funds until we resolve the name mismatch.  This issue needs to be resolved manually by our support staff.  Given the necessity of manual intervention and the number of tickets we have received lately, there have been significant delays in resolving these issues.
Unreadable IDs: If your ID is not readable or otherwise unable to be verified as a legitimately issued government ID, we will not allow you to proceed with our improved identity verification process.  Please ensure that the picture of your government issued ID is clear.
Non-Latin characters on the Government IDs:  There are some countries where government IDs do not support the Latin character set.  For these IDs, there are additional steps that Bittrex will need to take to verify the information on the ID, often including manual intervention.  Given the number of tickets we have received lately, there have been significant delays in resolving these issues.  Using international passports generally makes the process move more smoothly as these passports support Latin characters.
Opening multiple support tickets: We have noticed that users are opening multiple tickets with regards to the same issue.  While we understand that the delay can be frustrating, please do not open multiple tickets for the same issue as this will cause your support request to be delayed.
 
Although this is not an exhaustive list, we wanted to provide some context for the delay in responding to individual support tickets.  We trust that you understand Bittrex is committed to following the law and ensuring that it has a robust compliance program.  We ask for your patience and cooperation throughout this process.

Hi everyone,

unfortunatelly i have to confirm everything what this guy said. They have recently stolen my cryptos in value of $2k and closed my account without any word. Little bit before I've just used their "Support center" and asked them, why I was allowed to anonymously deposit cryptos in value of $2k and I am not allowed to also anonymously withdraw them back (they have 0 BTC limit on withdraw for not verified users !!! - and when i submitted the basic verification info - name, birthday etc it says it's not enough that they want enhanced verification)

Result:

1) they didn't even bother to reply.
2) they marked the ticket (my question) as solved (even without reply)
3) they closed my account without a word.
4) thus they stolen my cryptos in value of $2k.

I am inviting all the scammed users to contact the lawyers / FBI / policy together...

Regards,

Lukas

1. if you deposit a large amount, they will disable your account and never reply.
2. if you contact their support they will not rely.
3. if you try to log in they will change your desk login details and then you are not allowed to reset your password.
4. You can not take your money back either!
5. Their verifications don't work on top of it, you are stuck in limbo.

They stole all of my money, took me for everything and I have never used them even once. They are truly the lowest form of scum on this planet. This is a warning to all to PULL OUT your money now as they are going to take you all for everything you have.

1. bullshit auto response that makes absolutely no sense https://postimg.org/image/hpsrl3sg1/
2. https://postimg.org/image/se13xorsx/ -  look my account is disabled on my first ever try, well I better go verify my phone number and promptly resolve this issue
3. https://postimg.org/image/g0o9qs24h/- This is 100% without question the code.  I am not going to take a picture of me looking at the phone writing this down. Guess I can't verify, oh well how about fuck them and I'll simply take my money back
4. https://gyazo.com/1bc9e156c0a30211ec5f88b596f3501d Well fuck me again, how about I read about the disabled accounts on their page to find out why a month busting my ass in two jobs is being held up
5. https://bittrex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000240791 Nothing, what about that? Shall I keep going?

I am so so angry at this that my head hurts, i'll take a rest but I will dig more evidence later. Let this be a lesson to you all, if they are selectively scamming the little guy, imagine how badly they are going to fuck up a few of the big ones.

Out of curiosity, did most people have their accounts locked or reset to 'new' only after they deposited a significant sum for the FIRST time, or did they deposit/withdraw large-ish sums repeatedly before randomly getting screwed?

My experience has been the latter. I've deposited and withdrawn large-ish amounts many times over the years with no trouble, and then randomly they decided to screw me when I deposited a much smaller amount recently. Weird.

Are you talking about USD? It seems that people get locked/disabled when they deposit usd, right? I personally have deposited a good sum of btc and other cryptos and I haven't been disabled, this was before trying to get verified, I never tried to deposit after that.

No, I deposited alts, not USD. And, again, it was a smaller amount than I have deposited many times in the past. As soon as I did, my account went from the classic 1337 BTC Legacy limit (which really just means 1 BTC) to 0.025, and as soon as I actually tried to withdraw 0.025 (again in alts), it immediately went to 0.

It does kind of look that way, they haven't made any statement anywhere about their problems and they seem to ban people on different channels that complain about it. There are only a few sites that did publish the news against bittrex.

They stole all of my money, took me for everything and I have never used them even once. They are truly the lowest form of scum on this planet. This is a warning to all to PULL OUT your money now as they are going to take you all for everything you have.

1. bullshit auto response that makes absolutely no sense https://postimg.org/image/hpsrl3sg1/
2. https://postimg.org/image/se13xorsx/ -  look my account is disabled on my first ever try, well I better go verify my phone number and promptly resolve this issue
3. https://postimg.org/image/g0o9qs24h/- This is 100% without question the code.  I am not going to take a picture of me looking at the phone writing this down. Guess I can't verify, oh well how about fuck them and I'll simply take my money back
4. https://gyazo.com/1bc9e156c0a30211ec5f88b596f3501d Well fuck me again, how about I read about the disabled accounts on their page to find out why a month busting my ass in two jobs is being held up
5. https://bittrex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000240791 Nothing, what about that? Shall I keep going?

I am so so angry at this that my head hurts, i'll take a rest but I will dig more evidence later. Let this be a lesson to you all, if they are selectively scamming the little guy, imagine how badly they are going to fuck up a few of the big ones.



thanks very much; you saved our bitcoins

I can also confirm that bittrex is SCAM.
Been using bittrex for more than 3 years, had legacy account, and now I can't pass verification,and of course i have many funds on exchange especially altcoins.

Support does NOT exist, waiting for 20 days for ticket, and got nothing.
I am not us citizen, but will try to fill this form if I got no answer from support. https://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx


Also here is quote from some reddit user
"KEEP OUT OF BITTREX! BITTREX IS A SCAM and full of shit! I traded two years on Bittrex, and never expect they will become junk like this! They block thousands accounts without any reason and keep users money hostage! They pump up coins and blocking wallets or deposits, so keep competitors off! I asked my 3 friends to test BITTREX. All of us US citizens with all online verified public info. AND NONE OF US CAN PASS Bittrex verification! (all used real names, real address, real ss#).!!! We make little test deposits to open Bittrex accounts. But when we tried to withdraw, all were denied! as "unverified" accounts! In all, 3 cases, no any response from Bittrex at all! NOW BITTREX obviously SCAM! BE AWERE AND KEEP OUT"

Basic verification doesn't exist. They trick you into filling out personal info, deny that 'basic verification' they offer and thus extort you for your ID. That's downright scamming people.

I think they are just having growing pains, they were the perfect exchange until a load of people started shifting to bittrex from poloniex after they had similar issues.

I have yet to have any problems depositing or withdrawing sums up to 10 BTC at a time there.

If you don't have enhanced verification, your account wíll change into 'new' and your withdraw limit will be 0.

Hey everybody I think that one way to speed things up would be to get onto your bittrex support account and delete all but your original support ticket. If they aren't fu##ing everyone this will certainly help , if they are sending lots of tickets is neither helping you or bothering them in the least ...   


Tweet them over and over if you want to get out some frustration , but for now we might as well just spread this around because they have asked it be done and it is the only thing that can actually speed things up that is in our hands

There are many people who wait more than a month to be verified.

I heard that they verify faster when documents are photographed in high resolution - NOT scanned!

Important Information About Identity Verification

FOLLOW
Over the past couple of months, Bittrex has been in the process of improving its identity verification procedures. There are a number of reasons to improve our processes, including that improved identity procedures help protect Bittrex users from theft and fraud, and prevent abuse of the Bittrex platform. In addition, Bittrex must comply with the Bank Secrecy Act, U.S. economic sanctions laws, and other legal and regulatory requirements. Bittrex takes these compliance obligations seriously.  We are committed to making sure our services are not used to launder money, support terrorism, commit fraud or other illegal activities.
 
We understand that our verification process can be frustrating or a hassle. We have heard your complaints and are working promptly to address each individual support ticket in our system. But, we cannot do this without the help of our customers. We have provided below a list of common mistakes or issues that arise during our improved identity verification process that tends to increase the delay in completing the process successfully:
 
Creating multiple accounts associated with a single individual or entity:  Unless you have received prior approval from Bittrex, our system will disable all additional accounts associated with a single individual or entity. This issue needs to be resolved manually by our support staff.  Given the necessity of manual intervention and the number of tickets we have received lately, there have been significant delays in resolving these issues. Please do not create multiple accounts.
Name mismatch: If your government issued ID has a different name than the one you provided to Bittrex, your account will not be able to withdraw funds until we resolve the name mismatch. This issue needs to be resolved manually by our support staff. Given the necessity of manual intervention and the number of tickets we have received lately, there have been significant delays in resolving these issues.
Unreadable IDs: If your ID is not readable or otherwise unable to be verified as a legitimately issued government ID, we will not allow you to proceed with our improved identity verification process. Please ensure that the picture of your government issued ID is clear.
Non-Latin characters on the Government IDs:  There are some countries where government IDs do not support the Latin character set. For these IDs, there are additional steps that Bittrex will need to take to verify the information on the ID, often including manual intervention. Given the number of tickets we have received lately, there have been significant delays in resolving these issues.  Using international passports generally makes the process move more smoothly as these passports support Latin characters.
Opening multiple support tickets: We have noticed that users are opening multiple tickets with regards to the same issue. While we understand that the delay can be frustrating, please do not open multiple tickets for the same issue as this will cause your support request to be delayed.
 
Although this is not an exhaustive list, we wanted to provide some context for the delay in responding to individual support tickets. We trust that you understand Bittrex is committed to following the law and ensuring that it has a robust compliance program. We ask for your patience and cooperation throughout this process.

No but they do verify faster if you write them about 2fa so a live mod/admin talks to you. You can ask him for verification and in most cases you will get verified.

I don't think the laws suddenly changed from "it's okay to be anonymous" to "you need to send selfies". If their claim is they want to follow the law, they just admitted they broke the law.

They are verifying accounts regardless. So you should be fine. They are just extremely slow and unprepared. Yes they are unprofessional but at least it doesn't seem like a scam, at least apparently.

My account (3+ years old) was allowed to withdraw several bitcoins per day. Then, without any warnings I was disallowed to withdraw anything at all.
I received a warning only saying that I should be aware of that before making any deposits, so of course I didn't make any additional deposit.
However the coins I already had there beforehand were completely locked.

I've asked for the basic verification and it failed. I made every step for the full verification and I've waited more than 2 weeks but I'm still waiting.

A somewhat semi-professional service would have sent warnings before locking the coins, asking users to either verify or withdraw before the timeline. Also, considering how important verifying is under these conditions, any site earning so much should invest on some more people if too small staff is really the issue.

Anyway, now I just hope they're just really, really, really unprofessional and not a scam. In any case I'd recommend anyone to stay away from them.


Edit: After about 3 months, my account was finally verified. They are just extremely unprofessional.

They are but you should use the ''trick'' that I used. Open a ticket asking for 2fa removal and when the bot replies ask them to verify you as well, they usually do it pretty fast this way.

Any claim about Bittrex being too busy or not professional and alike is ridiculous and  suspected to be part of the most sophisticated scam plot ever in crypto ecosystem, named Bittrex. They are definitively a bunch of ruthless thieves who have invaded a young market and now are playing every single card left to buy time for milking last drops of their innocent users.

Victims should follow the class action suits and similar campaigns and be aware of false hopes about that they will eventually being 'verified' (WTF? 99% of the victims possess already enhanced verified accounts) and can withdraw their stolen funds.These are shameful lies, the funds have gone and the only way to get them back is prosecuting the thieves and putting them behind the bars, no arguments, no speculations, stick to the facts.

Bittrex stopped taking on new users:

We have received an enormous number of new account registrations over the past few weeks.  We are excited to have so many new users who want to join the Bittrex community.  Unfortunately, we have to make a few upgrades to our support and backend systems to handle the increased traffic and load.  As such, we have halted new user registrations for the time being.
(source (https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003463331))

At least it's something, of course they should have taken measures before reducing withdrawal limits to zero, but this at least means the number of victims stops going up.

Yes, there is a huge problem when people that have no issues, at least yet, refuse to believe that their exchange is actually crap. Maybe not a full scam but still borderline scam. There are still plenty of people with millions stuck in there because they got their accounts disabled, and this has been going on for months. Also it seems that some coins are getting massive pumps with most of their volume (99.9%) on bittrex, is this just a coincidence or are they manipulating the market with all the stolen money?

Yes, there is a huge problem when people that have no issues, at least yet, refuse to believe that their exchange is actually crap. Maybe not a full scam but still borderline scam. There are still plenty of people with millions stuck in there because they got their accounts disabled, and this has been going on for months. Also it seems that some coins are getting massive pumps with most of their volume (99.9%) on bittrex, is this just a coincidence or are they manipulating the market with all the stolen money?
Of course they do dirty games like pump and dump with stolen coins. It is not new, Bittrex has been committing this crime from the first beginning. They are infamous for this.

And you know what? I think the timing was not random, the scam happened coherent with btc price surge, almost at the same hours!

This is the story: They were gambling with users' deposits as they have used to, then btc went high and higher while they were pumping shitcons and this way they trapped in their fraud, people wanted their btcs, while there were no btc. So, they had no choice other than stealing a significant portion of their user base's deposits to compensate their lost.

They have bought some time this way but it didn't help, btc continued sky rocketing and their shitcoins did not performed good enough, now they are in the worst situation ever which has just one single resolution: They should go behind the bars for 5 years or so and they already know it, otherwise they would have released people's deposits, the thing is, they just can't! They are just a bunch of broke gamblers.

If u say Bittrex is a Scam. people will laugh at you.But Bittrex have some strict rules. If you don't follow the rules you can simply loose your and its simple. To give a high secure service they are doing those privacy and rules setup. So at last I wanna tell you that maintain the rules and make a full Id verified Bittrex account everything will be fine & have a nice day.

Go f**k yourself, with your fake id. It is not about 'rules'.

If a user's status doesn't comply with a site's 'rules' s/he has the right to get a polite message and get informed about the problem and should have option to simply quit the platform by closing the account while withdrawing her/his funds that has deposited there. Instead Bittrex has stolen coins from descent users who most of them (99%) already had been verified extensively (by uploading necessary documents, activating 2FA, ... ) .

So STFU and stop promoting scammers here.

Bittrex is the worst case of a scam ever in crypto ecosystem. They accuse their victims of what? Being criminals?

Criminals can deposit coins to Bittrex's pocket but they can't withdraw?

Is this what you piece of sh*t mean by 'rule' and 'security'?

What kind of a sh*t are these scammers? Some sort of a "super criminal" who is used to steal from ordinary criminals?  

To whom am I speaking but? A fake id made just for one simple purpose: faking a controversy about an obvious scam.

They maliciously changed their ToS without informing anyone, that's already a scam. They disabled accounts for no reason with no response, again a scam. They made everyone verify without any notice, again scam. If you want to make it mandatory for your users to verify to withdraw, don't let them deposit either before verifying, of course they don't care when you deposit money to their exchange, it's good for them.

Even if it's a scam, it does work and pay returns. So far I got no problem with bittrex.

Such stupid noobs are the fuel which keeps scam engine working. Believe it? Thousands of people are complaining and sharing their stories and the moron is telling people that s/he  has no problem with Bittrex. Of course you have no problem there is no way for scammers to make problem for every single user  if they want to have their scam up and running for more few weeks or months. And these bastards in bittrex are sophisticated  enough to rip their users segment by segment and step by step. Get your ass out of their reach if you are not a fake id, noob.

Wow...

Anyone in here remember mintpal or cryptsy?

I get it maybe peoples accounts have been frozen and such but I have used bittrex for 3.5 years and haven't had a single problem.

They have added countless coins based on customer demand.

When poloniex had massive problems due to the surge in customers during the spring they stepped up as a viable and secure alternative.

In my experience they have always been transparent about things. As long as your not breaking their rules I dont see why anyone would have a problem.

If your new to crypto understand that the exchanges now days are way more professional and transparent to regulators than ever before, be thankful you weren't trading back in 2013/2014 when people's money literally got stolen from them.

On a final note yall shouldnt be keeping alot of coin on exchanges anyway, only keep small amounts to trade with on there. If you keep alot on there you are asking for trouble anyways, always be in control of your private keys.

They haven't been transparent at all, they have changed their ToS without any notice + making old accounts unverified and taking away the option to withdraw. That's not professional. Not getting a response from their support in 4 months is not professional, locking accounts without explanation is not professional. Wake up.

 You can't just change your rules without any advise, and you can't operate without a customer support because come on that sht that they have is not a customer support there is no human answering or fixing your problems for months.

They are a scam website, maybe they weren't in the past I don't care about that, but they are scamming people nowadays, and they are taking advantage of international customers specially who can't take legal actions against them.

Speaking of transparency...

Has anyone else noticed that Bittrex, LLC very quietly closed operations in Las Vegas, Nevada only to pop up as Bittrex, INC. in a DIFFERENT STATE (and DIFFERENT jurisdiction): Now they've SUDDENLY reappeared as the same (although different legal structure) in Bellevue, Washington.

ALL former complaints against the LLC are MAGICALLY INVALID due to Bittrex MOVING outside the regulatory agencies jurisdiction and changing legal status.  Hmm....

QUESTION:  If YOU owned the 3rd largest cryptocurrency-exchange and made such a RUSHED AND DRASTIC CHANGE  to new headquarters with a new legal identity, wouldn't you be SHOUTING your success from the rooftops?!  (Well... maybe not if your new address includes an APARTMENT number AND your new legal identity already has 129 COMPLAINTS within the FIRST WEEK at your new appartment headquarters.)

Instead... NO ANNOUNCEMENT WHATSOEVER, NOT EVEN A WHISPER... perhaps Bittrex just wanted to escape the (legal) heat in Las Vegas...  erhmh....

Bittrex has also removed any and all phone contact from domain and business registration.

(Isn't it against ICANN policy to NOT have valid contact info?) Funny enough (or not), the domain Bittrex.com expires in January with no sign of renewal.  Hmmrmh...


In any case, HERE is the NEW Bittrex contact information that Bittrex NEVER GAVE US, along with some links to relevant regulatory agencies.

https://www.bbb.org/northwest/business-reviews/virtual-currency/bittrex-inc-in-bellevue-wa-1000048938

Bellevue, WA 98004-8429

Mr. Richie Lai, Director

ONLY 129 complaints filed against BITTREX, INC. and the BBB Northwest file has only been open for 6 DAYS (since Dec. 15th).

Who knows how many regulatory complaints they ignored and left behind in Las Vegas...


Besides BBB Northwest, you can also file a complaint through the Washington State Attorney General's Office...

http://www.atg.wa.gov/fileacomplaint.aspx


Sure, nothing is wrong here cuz a few randoms say "it works for me" (yet mention nothing of withdrawals or the problems HUNDREDS of others are experiencing...)

So yes, they are definitely either compromised or a scam all together. A few weeks ago, I transferred a small amount of BTC into their exchange for the purpose of buying NEO. A month later, still no NEO and do not have my BTC back because they changed all of the fee limits making it impossible to get my BTC back.

Yesterday, I called them to find out how to get the fee set to what it needed to be to allow me to move my BTC. The guy was very friendly, was trying to "help" me for over an hour. Said he needed to remote into my computer and change something with the server etc. So of course, I let him do it, the screen kept going blank on my side to where I could not see what he was doing. I'm waiting and waiting on him to be done with what he is doing and the line went dead. I tried to call back several times and the phone number is not reachable now.....

I open up my computer, that is still "being controlled by a cloud administrator," and see that he logged into my coinbase account, purchased $716.00 worth of BTC and sent it to himself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Both numbers on google are not their phone numbers or the lines are being rerouted! Thankfully it comes out of my credit card and I can report it but then I was on hold for 3 hours strait with coinbase without ever talking to a human, to get it reported, never got a hold of them either.....JUST BEWARE!!! They will steal your shit....

And my BTC is still stuck in their "exchange" ...or whatever the fuck they are running

I have deposited 0.25 BTC and the amount is not showing up in my Balance.

Bittrex deposit address: 1CeJVuEHPqLG4BQBqx4Ugq7nKKwXNkv39P

Opened a support request but at this point i doubt they reply.

We have to catch them.
Let's find out their identity.

We have to contact CloudFlare and ask who those people are !!

Post by: player514 on December 23, 2017, 07:35:46 PM
1. if you deposit a large amount, they will disable your account and never reply.
2. if you contact their support they will not rely.
3. if you try to log in they will change your desk login details and then you are not allowed to reset your password.
4. You can not take your money back either!
5. Their verifications don't work on top of it, you are stuck in limbo.

They stole all of my money, took me for everything and I have never used them even once. They are truly the lowest form of scum on this planet. This is a warning to all to PULL OUT your money now as they are going to take you all for everything you have.

1. bullshit auto response that makes absolutely no sense https://postimg.org/image/hpsrl3sg1/
2. https://postimg.org/image/se13xorsx/ -  look my account is disabled on my first ever try, well I better go verify my phone number and promptly resolve this issue
3. https://postimg.org/image/g0o9qs24h/- This is 100% without question the code.  I am not going to take a picture of me looking at the phone writing this down. Guess I can't verify, oh well how about fuck them and I'll simply take my money back
4. https://gyazo.com/1bc9e156c0a30211ec5f88b596f3501d Well fuck me again, how about I read about the disabled accounts on their page to find out why a month busting my ass in two jobs is being held up
5. https://bittrex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000240791 Nothing, what about that? Shall I keep going?

I am so so angry at this that my head hurts, i'll take a rest but I will dig more evidence later. Let this be a lesson to you all, if they are selectively scamming the little guy, imagine how badly they are going to fuck up a few of the big ones.



To everyone who's having issues with this, it seems as if this is a pretty wide scale problem. However, one way that it was fixed to have it go viral on reddit as seen here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/7jaf2r/bittrex_has_stolen_my_money/

The OP was in a similar spot as many responses on this thread and after this post gained hundred of upvotes, the OP updated the post stating that Bittrex had unfroze his account. These guys are really fishy, and it's probably best to stay away from them, but maybe commenting on the reddit post will help chances of your case being seen. I have no clue how Bittrex is operating like this...

They can act like that because we are not gonna physically beat them.

We must find their identity and a group of us must go together at their place and give them what they deserve.

Is that difficult??
If CloudFlare doesn't want to reveal us the Bittrex owners names, we beat the Cloudflare employees too

I prefer giving a punch to someone than losing thousands of bucks, don't you ?

 I did have problems getting Verified on Bittrrex but that got resolved in 2 weeks. They did send out an email explaining the delay. But then I couldn't pull out some BTCs when I wanted them.

I have some advice to my fellow newbies..

Some of the posts here, however, are a little scary. We should all ensure that what we post here do not increase to the FUD going around.
For example, many people mentioned that their BTC transaction do not show up. But they eventually got it. I too had a similar case when I started. I too thought that it is lost or a scam. But the fact was that BTC transactions at a time of a heavy is VERY VERY slow. We should keep that in mind. If you have a transaction Id for your transaction, It can Always be tracked.

Secondly, DO NOT  give access to anyone on your computer. NO one can remote in and fix you problems for you. JUST don't do it. Ask them for instructions on what to do and you do it yourself to fix the problems. Support staff of crytocurrency related services have no business taking remote of your machines. There is nothing they have to do ON YOUR COMPUTER.   


Btw... I think Coinbase is a bigger problem :). They very conveniently lock out buy and sell when the prices are low.

Have an account set to "new" after i tried to move some BTC from it. There are currently 4000$ trapped inside this account.

Its especially annoying since i just bought some ARK that of course are not staking in the wallet.
I wrote an ticket to them 16 days ago and get no response.

Request #663985
yes Bittrex! Please reply if you read that.

To everyone involved with this exchange i can say, try to avoid it. At least as long as they need to sort this out.
Its really time we get good decentralized exchanges!

No I do not think bittrex will be the new cryptsy, things are much different now.

Remember cryptsy was hacked by malicious code uploaded by....vegascoin? Some crap like that I can't remember.

Bittrex has a higher standard for coins being added and their code review is way better.

Now before everyone in this thread jumps me for supporting them I will empathize with everyone that it does suck to have funds
locked up.

Remember that crypto currency exchanges are in a huge grey area right now, and these markets move soooo fast. It's nearly impossible
for them to handle the influx of customers and volume this fast!! The same thing happened to poloniex last spring, also keep in mind that they are also
trying to follow and comply with ever increasing eyes from regulators.

If your funds are locked I encourage you to just take some deep breaths, the regulators are well aware of crimes of now defunct
exchanges mt.gox, cryptsy and mintpal..they arent going to let bittrex rob you guys.

I don't understand how you can equalize poloniex and bittrex here.

I'm using poloniex without any issue. Poloniex never set my account to "new" locking my funds as bittrex did.

Bittrex seems to be doing a full gox/cryptsy thing. My account of 2+ years suddenly got reset to "new" and they basically locked me out, since their basic verification doesn't work and there is no fucking way I'm sending them my dox. Luckily I only had some dust there.

Support people are just flat out lying and/or stalling, using KYC as an excuse and basically laughing at me - "are you gonna sue us for $30?" (not in those exact words but that's the gist of it).

I left neg trust for the few Bittrex accounts on this forum. If anyone knows of any others - let me know.

Well done!

I wish i could give them negative trust too, but i think i can't cause i don't have a green positive trust level.

There are really many users involved in this fraudolent action. Personally i have a few btc cents there, but i'm not going to give them my id card.

My account is still locked. No response from support.

Are they already running away? Is bittrex the new criptsy?

So sad.

Now a days bittrex is also giving the same problems like poloniex and support people are not responding to people problems. So it makes people to think about negative but of they drag like this people will feel more negative about bittrex exchange.

I don't understand how you can equalize poloniex and bittrex here.

I'm using poloniex without any issue. Poloniex never set my account to "new" locking my funds as bittrex did.

Poloniex is fair, bittrex is not.

As of beginning next year, Poloniex will do forced KYC too.

No.

https://poloniex.com/press-releases/2017.12.27-Notice-to-legacy-account-holders/

Quote
Withdrawals will remain enabled at the daily withdrawal limits prior to the deadline.

Poloniex will only announce a verification deadline at the beginning of the year, not force it immediately, and will still allow withdrawals for legacy accounts. Apples and cucumbers compared to the shithole that is Bittrex. For all its faults Poloniex is actually run by a somewhat competent person, whereas Bittrex seems to have Paul Vernon's long-lost evil twin brother in charge. What Bittrex is doing is essentially theft, and combined with their generally shady and secretive nature it raises serious questions about their solvency.

Yeah, I know, I shouldn't be so bitter about ~$30 but these shitcoining scammers really get on my nerves.

I logged in many months back and seen a msg about getting verified then closed it.
I had sent out a couple hundred in BTC to Localbitcoins ok though.
I now have about $37 worth in there i assume is stuck.. simply because the amount is too small to withdraw.

Anyway i have wondered if 1 or more staffer ripped people off before.
I met a guy named Ryan on Cryptsy IRC way back and he seemed legit but i don't know the others.
hard to say what is going on i think.. they keep the public in the dark yet have to work with AML law.
This type of thing is only going to get worse in crypto.

EDIT:
Yeah mine is flagged as new also even though i was there since they started years ago.

I also have a bitterx problem. So far, withdrawals have worked, but after a while the payout did not work. I had the Basic verification met. They wanted Enhanced Verification, I sent the necessary documents, but the verification failed. I sent a request to their recommendation at https://support.bittrex.com/. I've been waiting for 12 days. No response has been received so far to help me solve this problem.
I do not know what's going on with Bittrex. I have been registered for 3 years and I was satisfied with it. I'm a little skeptical now. I also have the BTC arrested on my account. I wait and see.

took about 3 months before i could get enhanced verification once they zeroed out withdraws for my basic account that i had for years. just keep trying. and yeah what a pita.

Please Help me, everyone:

Did your issue with Bittrex account finally resolved or not? How long you were/are waiting?


I have a **verification issue**  with Bittrex account. My account has been blocked for last two months. Can't do anything, trade or withdraw.

I haven't got a response from their support team except some automated emails.

I am so frustrated. I can't believe all my coins/saving are gone. Any advice?

 My ticket #481704

So you have your account disabled, right? I believe it's harder to get it enabled again than getting verified which you might need to do too. Personally what I did was the ''2FA trick''. I had a verification problem pending for like 3-4 weeks so I decided to try the trick. You have to open a new ticket with the subject of ''Disable 2FA'' and once they respond and you provide the required information for them to disable your 2fa you can ask them in the same ticket to enable your account again. If you are lucky and you get a good moderator you will get your account enabled again, if not you can always try again or try to ask them why your account got blocked. Hope this helps, if you have more questions feel free to pm me.

Yes, My account is disabled. "YOUR ACCOUNT CANNOT BE AUTOMATICALLY ENABLED AT THIS TIME" and it says "contact Support" which I did 50 days ago. I can log-in and see my wallet but I can't do any trade or withdraw. This happened when I was trying to do Enhance Verification after basic verification failed. I submitted ID picture but gave me the "name mismatch" error! I didn't use my US ID. Maybe that's why.
 
Thank you for the advice. I'll open a ticket for 2FA. Question. I don't want them to do something wrong that ended up losing my access too. Since My 2FA is working right now what do you recommend I describe as the issue for 2FA?

Thank you!

Well mine was working too but they answer faster on the 2fa subjects than verification/disabled accounts subjects. When you submit the 2fa ticket just try not to log in to the website afterwards. They will answer with:

f you need two-factor removed after troubleshooting please reply with the following information, the more details you can provide the better:

1) Recent ip addresses you have logged into site with (You can find this by visiting, https://www.google.com/#q=what+is+my+ip+address )
2) Recent transaction ids for any withdrawals and deposits you have made to Bittrex
3) Recent balances in your account

For Accounts valued at over $1000 USD we will require additional information for proof of identity.

4)2 forms of government identification and a selfie of you holding one of those identifications where we can match your face. Please also write Bittrex and today's date on a piece of paper and hold it in the picture. Please make sure the text on your ID is readable in all photos. Note: This means we need all 3 things in 1 photo. You, your ID, and the paper with Bittrex and the date on it. Also we do not accept .pdf or zip files, or links to files.

When you provide them with all the needed information you can also ask them to verify and enable your account again.

You guys have a reason to be mad, but there's a higher level of bullshit going on.
You haven't been verified for over a month, but you still have your balance intact, and you will probably get it someday.
They have removed dozens of tokens, and set a limt of 14 days to withdraw a delisted token.
It takes over a month to verify your account.
They have essentialy stolen each token that's been delisted from us.

EDIT:

I got a response  :o
I got an e-mail after 5 days, noticed it right now[says 2 days ago], they said the picture was blurry, so I submitted my ID again.
There is unlikely hope, tokens have been delisted on Jan 1, so there's only 1-2 days to be verified and withdraw.

I think disabled accounts will never turn on again it seem like US issue. Today more than 100 days with no answer I think there is one solution as long as we lost or fund. "FBI Report". Yes bittrex exchange accept our registration and deal with that and this will not ignoring by the FBI so hope 40s reports enough to give them attention.

I think even if you provide personal information the way they want it. it will not make your problem solved. because it seems their intention is to steal and do scamming. it seems you should try to put pressure and threats to them like a legal act. that's also what I did some time ago when my deposit was not credited for a few days..

Well mine was working too but they answer faster on the 2fa subjects than verification/disabled accounts subjects. When you submit the 2fa ticket just try not to log in to the website afterwards. They will answer with:

f you need two-factor removed after troubleshooting please reply with the following information, the more details you can provide the better:

1) Recent ip addresses you have logged into site with (You can find this by visiting, https://www.google.com/#q=what+is+my+ip+address )
2) Recent transaction ids for any withdrawals and deposits you have made to Bittrex
3) Recent balances in your account

For Accounts valued at over $1000 USD we will require additional information for proof of identity.

4)2 forms of government identification and a selfie of you holding one of those identifications where we can match your face. Please also write Bittrex and today's date on a piece of paper and hold it in the picture. Please make sure the text on your ID is readable in all photos. Note: This means we need all 3 things in 1 photo. You, your ID, and the paper with Bittrex and the date on it. Also we do not accept .pdf or zip files, or links to files.

When you provide them with all the needed information you can also ask them to verify and enable your account again.


bittrex is confirmed scammers they should not be trusted with any personal information..who are the fuck are they? :\   =phishing

''Confirmed scammers'' That's not really true, they are just really unprofessional. Unfortunately the only way to get your coins/money back is by providing them with your personal information. At the end of the day most exchanges will ask you for personal information.
I think even if you provide personal information the way they want it. it will not make your problem solved. because it seems their intention is to steal and do scamming. it seems you should try to put pressure and threats to them like a legal act. that's also what I did some time ago when my deposit was not credited for a few days..

they know EXACTLY who i am that's the crazy shit ~i have coin projects i work for years on this exchange for the love of satoshi :-D pfft

Except their verification process is horribly broken and instead of providing a reasonable solution they will simply lock the account for good. That is about as scammy as it gets. They know that most people won't go to the trouble of getting a new ID card or whatever is needed to pass the verification (if at all possible) so they can sweep up those small amounts.

If this was purely a KYC issue they would work to help their customers. This is not what's happening. Their support people are acting like assholes determined to piss you off and make it not worth bothering to regain access.

I don't know men they are one of the alternate coins I've invested upon seems like legit to me because first of all, I wouldn't consider putting my money on such risk if they were unreliable based on my study and research. Maybe you want to hear the opinion of others first regarding I am sure there will be a mix of opinion. Thanks!

Except if they were really scamming they would have ran away by now. As I said, I'm not defending them, they are extremely unprofessional and a horrible service in general but personally I got verified after a month, I withdrew everything and here I am. You can get verified as well, it just takes time.

bittrex will be shut down ~ my opinion is that they owe the community alot and all the coins the hold need to be redistributed ..

who are these people anyways? :\ i think they need some jail time to sit and think about the damage they did to satoshis's project.

The problem isn't them running away with the whole loot (yet), the problem is them skimming small amounts by imposing unreasonable requirements.

And no, I can't get verified, tried both their basic and enhanced verification. It's pure bullshit of course. I can open any bank account, and I have a fully verified Coinbase account, so again - it's not a KYC issue. Bittrex is lying when they say that the "government" is forcing them to do this.

no you don't understand they have been breached already, when they provide their documents proving who they are that would be the first step to show legitimacy..all evidence points to them being already taken over and just phishing for info on customers. :\ meh

Didn't work for me neither, only after a month and using what's called the ''2fa trick'' I got verified. I still think they just fucked up. Why would they lock accounts in the US? Why not disable accounts in shithole countries where they know it's virtually impossible for them to be sued by those people?

They are not only unprofessional.... We can't call "horrible service" actions that killed bittrex reputation. Because this is what they did.... they distroyed their reputation. They where one of the main exchange on the market. How could anyone trust them again after this shit!?

For a comparison we can look on how poloniex treated this kyc requirement... First of all they declared that there will be an annuncement of a deadline for kyc, and even after the deadline customers will be able to withdrawal their funds without verification. This if fair and professional.

It is clear that poloniex don't want to steal customers funds.... What about bittrex?

I got a response after 6 days, after which I submitted new info and 2 days later my account was verified.
I have placed a withdrawal request for my TIME tokens (the last day I believe, they've been delisted on the 1st, and it's the 14th today [you're able to withdraw delisted tokens only for 14 days]).

I understand your point. I'm not defending them whatsoever, they are garbage. I'm just saying that they can't be called scam as we usually know the word scam. They are, in some way, scamming but with a more sophisticated way. Nonetheless I don't think they are spending the money that's stuck in there because disabled/unverified accounts can become verified/enabled again.

I think the bigger worry is that the money might be already gone (hack or embezzlement or whatever) and Bittrex is trying to restrict withdrawals to remain solvent, like Cryptsy did. There is no plausible reason to do what they're doing if the intent was purely KYC. Too many red flags, including the way their customer service is lying point blank.

But they have verified a lot of accounts, eventually. I don't know how many tickets they have right now but certainly less than before. They have verified accounts with quite a lot of money too, I don't think they are already gone but time will tell.

I did send 0.1 ether like 7 months ago, to test their services, it was my first time over there and the coins never showed up in my wallet. After a month of tickets opening an reopening and blablabla from their support, I decided to let it go and gave them up as a loss.

Now we have issues with BitFinex and Theter, Cex.io with their assets in Afganistan and not paying withdraws of over 34,000, BitConnect, another post where a guy is waiting for his coins for over a month on Yobit platform, CoinBase with their BtcTrach and with their withdraw problems, South-Korea and China politicians at the top-level of scamming, McAfee pumping shitcoins on Twitter and promoting fake ICO's like no one was watching, newbies crying towards governmental institution, Reddit with their suicide-preventing posts, and I could go on like this but I don't have the energy to do so...

The only way out I've found for the moment is LocalBitcoins, and where I only do business is in person with not too much coins because we never know who is on the other side and what their intentions are.

The crypto world is doomed and the only one making profit are all those scammers. But hey, it will be regulated soon... I don't think so, the only future I think this has, is that it is all going to get banned!

And me, as the dumbass that I am, I quitted my job a year ago to become a "BlockChain programmer". Here I am now, developing Smart Contracts for fun on top of Ethereum and EOS for nothing!! I guess now the only option I have is to go back to Reddit and go search for that fu*king phone number  :P.

I did send 0.1 ether like 7 months ago, to test their services, it was my first time over there and the coins never showed up in my wallet. After a month of tickets opening an reopening and blablabla from their support, I decided to let it go and gave them up as a loss.

Now we have issues with BitFinex and Theter, Cex.io with their assets in Afganistan and not paying withdraws of over 34,000, BitConnect, another post where a guy is waiting for his coins for over a month on Yobit platform, CoinBase with their BtcTrach and with their withdraw problems, South-Korea and China politicians at the top-level of scamming, McAfee pumping shitcoins on Twitter and promoting fake ICO's like no one was watching, newbies crying towards governmental institution, Reddit with their suicide-preventing posts, and I could go on like this but I don't have the energy to do so...

I have coins held ransom there for almost 6 months. With an enhanced account and previously enabled they took away and disabled my account when I went to reset my 2FA due to losing a phone. Now they do not accept my picture/id that I send in with drivers license, passport, state ID I just get back a generic form email. Very frustrating!!

Same thing here, $1.5k stuck...

I opened a support ticket over 21 days ago for manual verification. I got an automatic reply. Days later I opened a second new ticket. Now I got a real person reply saying: " and due to increased volume in tickets we are experiencing longer support times than usual".

Read the Bittrex twitter, google a bit, you will find dozens of people saying the same thing:
"I have been locked",
"I can't take my money out!",
"Give me back my money!",
"Scammers!", etc.

This is really awful... Something has to be done

After 55-60 days waiting it was finally solved. Relief.

I completely agree with you. Nobody should trust bittrex anymore. My withdrawal are still locked, but for bittrex i can continue to deposit even without kyc verification, loosing then my funds.

One day they may decide to force a new "super verification" that no one can complete. Who could know after what they did!?

This is fraud.

TO be honest, I was relly upset. I thought it was a scam. And I had good reasons!

In my opinion, they should reply to a support ticket in 2-5 days MAX. When you are waiting like 4-8 weeks it makes you desperate. Then finally, out of nowhere, a Bittrex email. The lack of communication was the worst part and a customer must always feel cared.

Guys, consider that the last months have seen an exponential growth of crypto new users. All exchanges have "closed" their doors to new registrations because they could not handle the HUGE traffic and number of users: this happened in Bitstamp, Cryptopia, Bittrex, Binance...

So maybe you just need to be patient. It hurts. But be patient. You can't do other thing.

I have been dealing with Bittrex for 6 months now.  I have transferred coin in and out. I have traded to get enough coin for my Zencash node.  Not a single problem.

But, I have not tried any of your specific issues.  I don't think they are a scam.  They can surely have poor customer support.  They might even hire idiots to run there support program (growing pains).  And with large amounts, they have to comply with government regulations.

Amused to find this. I am trading on Bittrex for 4 years and so far so good. Are you verified customer? Did you contact support? I know they are very strict to  some immorality of users ( like taking part in pumping groups) but I never expected they would empty user's account. I would advice you to go to their slack group and raise up the issue there. It may help.

I'm not an immoral user for example, i didn't take part in a pumping group or other strange things, but bittrex was very very unfair with me.

My withdrawals are still locked at 0 btc daily limit, but my deposits are still full functional... so i can deposit there as much as i want loosing then my funds. Is that fair!?

bittrex should be ashamed about their behavior.

IT IS A SCAM!
They put BTG wallet in maintenance 10 days ago, making tons of deposits inaccessible. They are lying that they need feedback from developers. (Meantime, other exchanges fixed BTG issues in days.)
And Bittrex's support is unable to help, actually they have no willingness to solve the issue.
(And they are forcibly closing the support tickets without any meaningful work.)

Don't use bittrex.

I made a deposit of aprox 10K USD in crypto and because of their technical problems the deposit didn't get credited as usual.

Now they tell me that they have to manually check it and that it could take a month or more and this if it finally gets credited, maybe I "lose" my coins, they don't assure me that it will be credited even having blockchain tx id proof.WTF

This is unacceptable, avoid this exchange at all costs.

They got my $30 - what am I gonna do? Support stopped responding after a while and the only other venues of communication are: an address of the shelf company they hide behind, or their law firm. It's not worth doing anything, even in a small claims court. And I was one of the suckers to actually submit KYC docs. Most people wouldn't even do that and just forfeit small balances. So yes, they can get away with this shit for a long time.

Even folks having problems with $10k would have a hard time in court. Try explaining a TX ID to a judge.

Bittrex can block your account without explaining the reason, moreover, they ignore my emails. I turned to support (ticket 1532649) but they do not answer me. I do not know what to do, I lost a few thousand dollars and no longer believe that I will return them. This is terrible so I think it is a realy scam.

I deposited SYNX into bittrex to dump.
Deposit never showed up, never replied to my ticket...
It's been like 4 months

Also want to add. My account is over 5 years old and verified.
I sent like $10 of SYNX to test. And nothing.

Luckily I don't keep any coins on my exchange. I have at most 1 Monero on Bittrex.

The old crypto adage, if you don't hold the private keys you don't own'em.

I'd been with Bittrex for many years and still haven't faced any problems at all. I am also verified with unlimited withdrawal limits. But volume is getting lower compared to those like Binance. but I haven't heard Bittrex having hacking issues compared to other exchanges too.

Seems this is true. They offered to people SCAM IEO (RAID). And only after information was published in mass-media they canceled this IEO.

Bittrex is SCAM!
Oh, really! I am using bittrex since 2017 still now I have not faced any problem. And I think it is one of the most trusted exchange site in crypto world.

Bittrex does not credit my deposit for three months
help desk cannot help
in the ticket where my problem is described they don’t answer me since September 23
What are the methods of exposure?

From my  experience any  issues can be resolved  much faster if you publish it on  Bittrex official Slack channel.

Bittrex from number one exchange until slowly losing its steam from its users. Then here comes some scam controversies. I can see there is very small chance this exchange can retain its glory days. Bittrex will be closed soon because its volume is dying. Better for the remaining users to avoid.

I have 20k$+ on it, my account is disabled for absolutely no reason, maybe because I did not connect to it for few months... I sent them a request : they said that they want to close my account, I have 7 days to withdraw my funds before they close it permanently (4 days left). But I cant withdraw because it's disabled. I'm waiting for an answer from the support, but I'm afraid that they won't respond and close my account and keep my funds.. Did it happen to someone yet?


"Hello,
After a careful review of your account we have decided we no longer wish to continue our customer relationship with you. 
Please withdraw your funds within 7 days and respond back once you have withdrawn your funds so that we may close your account. 
If we have not heard back within 7 days your account will be permanently closed.
Best Regards,"

I was subjected to a fraud similar to this process completely and it was through one of the investment sites where I deposited some money inside the site and when the money arrived at the site he blocked me and I was unable to log into the account again or retrieve the money and when I contact the support team I did not reach any answer to that. Be careful and beware of these sites as possible

Bittrex has long been a scam. 
They died how the exchange  in december 2017 yet... .
Since 2017, they’ve stolen millions. This scheme is long-standing.
Some of us have over  $20,000 stuck... .
Sign the petition today, and we will mobilize to hire a lawyer to fight Bittrex in court and get our money back !!!

Sadly, I am another statistic of the great Bittrex scam that is going down right now.  My account has been fine for 4 years, 2fa enabled and I've never had an issue until suddenly, my account exceeded $10k USD and now it is disabled pending additional verification.  I filled out a PDF form and attached it to a support ticket on Zendesk.. the whole thing is extremely shady.  When you go on Telegram for support, scammers bombard you with DM's and the "admins" just tell you to be patient and wait for support.  If I ever get access to my funds, I will immediately withdrawal everything and shut it down, which is probably what everybody else is thinking, so it looks like a giant bank run at Bittrex except they won't let us run because they are holding our funds hostage to keep themselves afloat!

This exchange was once the best, but now it is very dangerous to use this exchange. This is because they block the funds of traders at any time with a notice of verification. I used bittrex until 2018, then I had a verified account so I had no problem with it.

Now there are a lot of negative reports against this exchange, new traders, so try to avoid this exchange. And warn yourself more after seeing this user's losses.

This really went from most trusted exchange to allmost SCAM in a few months!

They are just insane with withdrawal fees! They had 167 for USDC, USDT, DAI.

I asked them why those insane withdrawal fees. The day after (yesterday) it was like 65.

But now 377 USDC !!!! Just insane also all withdrawal fees of DeFi Coins. A few hundred bucks to withdraw them!  :o ETH, MKR and so on

Only feasable for BTC or non DeFi altcoins to withdraw.Maybe I should hurry. Hacker Exit like Cryptopia coming?


Or has anyone a Tip for low withdrawal fee coin in Shittrex :'( for a small becoming LP? From small miner to small miner and LP.

I think you should blame ETH gas price for this, not Bittrex
