Title: Cryptsy is trying to break me..
Post by: TwinWinNerD on February 09, 2014, 05:12:59 PM
I bought a bunch of WDC on cryptsy.

Now i want to withdraw them. I enter the withdrawal for my whole balance. I get an email saying i should confirm the withdrawal of my whole balance. But then! After i click that link, about 5 minutes later, they just remove 75% of that withdrawal sum, and only process 25% of it.

Is this some kind of sick joke???

With this taktic, i will NEVER be able to withdraw all my coins...

There are going for the long con and break me???

God, we really need good regulated and reliable exchanges..

That's the risk of trading at cryptsy.. You never know what they will do next.

YaCoin is missing for weeks already and they give NO statement where the money went to. :-X

Hahahaha, now when i enter a withdrawal request, it goes like this:

WIthdraw 4000 WDC.
Email comfirmation saying "4000WDC"
Then after 5 minutes --> pending 1000 WDC

and now the novum: they apply the the 0.25 again.

After ten minutes of pending -->  250 WDC....

Motherf****ng co******ers.... They dont even respond to tickets anymore..

Send them a message. I can predict their response: "we all lost something". Been there, done that :D

Yes, but that doesn't even matter. How can they have such a major bug? I bought those WDC because i needed them, and now i can't access them when I want?

I can rant as much as i want, if exchanges behave like 12 year olds, that write their first small computer program. Ridiculous

I think for a lot of people they have a hard time remembering that far back. From time you contact until/if they respond is from a few days to many weeks to never.

What on Earth would you need WDC for? Lulz!

I have been using Cryptsy since the beginning and have yet to see any major issues that have anything to do with deposits and withdrawals.

Patience not patients... but I do think 10 hours to 3 days is excessive waiting, any trader would tell you that. You wouldn't wait 10 hours for your money to come from the ATM machine, why do people bother with such pitiful service from Cryptsy.

If a withdrawal contains too many inputs to fit into a block a script will cut it in half and try again. Looks like it happened to yours a few times before it pushed through

That is utter nonsense.. Cryptsy is stealing coins left, right and center. Most people give up and accept the loss. I have personally lost coins with Cryptsy which they absolutely refuse to refund. They should all be thrown in prison, including BigVern's lackey "BitJohn" (the supposed Operations Manager).


Title: Re: Cryptsy is trying to break me..
Post by: ledmaniak on February 09, 2014, 11:02:59 PM
Exactly.. I lost part of my coins because of malfunctions/bugs and another part because Cryptsy delisted the coin without notice for about a month already and they do not even try to respond or inform you when it will be enlisted again..

So yah, 100% of complaints are fake and made by people that are impatient.. such a joke!

Try to withdraw IFC and you wait 1 week without success, always staying as "pending". You will then get an offer from Criptsy that they can cancel the withdraw... That's the way they offer solutions...  ::)

So the reason your withdraw got cut in half is if the wallet hangs on a withdraw it will shrink your withdraw down to a point it will send and refund the remainder. WDC wallet doesn't like the large withdraws. Not sure how that equates to stealing your coins.

In fact for the guys saying your coins are stolen.....Why is it you never contact us about this supposed theft? It's FUD. Some folks rant on and on about this but refuse to run their own numbers. I can provide anyone their running balances easy task. You will always get your coins there is no grand conspiracy we unlike others actually have regulatory requirements. Auditors etc.

Now I get that waiting 36 hours for a lost deployment can be painful we think that time is unacceptable ourselves. We want our ticket times at an hour and are working to get there. To contrast however your bank will likely take weeks or months..... Got it its Crypto its gotta be fast we agree working on getting there.

I mean were a public facing company with a hard address you can drive to. We have been around nearly a year now and have 170,000 users. Seems like the same 10-20 guys spamming this stuff over and over. Most of the team is available to help anyone who has an issue. Is it hard to get a hold of me sometimes? Sure there are 170,000 of you and one of me same goes for Mullick and Horus. Our support team is getting pretty efficient we just recently hired 4 more agents. I would bet we have a larger support staff than any other exchange.

Does that mean there might not be a guy or two slipped through the cracks? Sure it definitely could happen its something I worry about all the time. IF you really think we dont care your way off base and since I got your attention. Paul recently did this interview worth a listen.

I have to admit, I was beyond apprehensive to join cryptsy a few days ago, thinking I'd be experiencing lost or incomplete deposits.  But both of my btc deposits thus far went in seamlessly in under 10 minutes.   Purchased VTC just as easily.

Not so sure how I'll fare with the withdrawl process, but so far so good.

Oh, I did contact you BitJohn. In fact, it took your support team OVER 30 DAYS to respond to my problem. During that time I attempted several times to reach the helpdesk. I even spoke to you personally on IRC and you said you'd get back to me.. you didn't. During that time, everyday, I was being screwed over more and more. In the end, you refused to take responsibility for a bug in YOUR system after it bought coins, on credit, without my authorization. I logged the ticket so you can fix it, instead you used the slow timing of your support desk to your advantage and now you are HOLDING my coin. You have stolen the coin from me, because you're not giving it to me. How is that so hard to understand?

Your exchange suddenly put my BTC account into a negative balance by buying a bunch of extra coins for me, why did you do that? You admitted it's a bug, why aren't you giving me my coins back?

Stop behaving like criminals.

OK I will bite PM me the details again maybe you slipped through the cracks. Like I said I deal with 170,000 people its possible I missed you. As far as the exchange buying coins for you if it overbought why didn't you sell them back? Did you just hold the extra hoping the price would go up? Without seeing your account I don't have enough info.

I've never traded in my life, been on Cryptsy for about a day.  Already lost some coins (Support TIcket #92221) when I cancelled a sell order and they simply disappeared.  That was 10 hours ago.  Meanwhile value of the coins goes down down down...

Honestly this is not a good way to start.  Makes me want to put my coins back in offline wallets and HODL instead of trying to diversify (and generate you guys fees).

So yeah, report from the trenches, first time customer.  Having assets worth actual money simply disappear is pretty unsatisfactory.

EDIT: Reading other Cryptsy hating threads and I wanted to clarify, I'm not saying they have any bad intentions, just that losing track of assets is really off-putting, especially for a newb.  It was only about .1btc worth but still.

SECOND EDIT: That photoshopped twitter post was hilarious BTW  ;D

Cryptsy selectively scams people.. if you voice it or raise your concern publicly they tend to "fix it". I went through the whole logging a ticket process, several back and forths, weeks on weeks, but it was like talking to a wall - today after 45+ days they closed my ticket without resolution and stolen my coins. So I encourage anyone that have a problem to make it public, let it be heard and it'll help warn others! Trading is a challenge, you try and learn how the market behaves and moves, the sentiment, how news articles affect the price etc .. and then, you take the riskiest step of them all and trade on Cryptsy. It's like going to Vegas and they are "the house"... and you know what they say about the house.
