Bitcoin Forum

It seems Poloniex is gone as most of people aren't able to withdrawal their funds.
Once one make a withdrawal it will be sent to "Awaiting Approval" and there stays forever.
you will find in Twitter, facebook, forums, etc that people are awaiting over 20-30 days without any answer from the support team.

Some say who has high limits account (verified) aren't having problems but I can't confirm that.
Pennies withdrawal also might go through however anything above 0.1-0.2 BTC will be stuck in the "Awaiting Approval"

Do you do Poloniex?? Then go ahead and try withdrawal 0.2 BTC to find out.

Good luck.

and the ticket has no reply?

IDEM 0,026 BTC .... 48 hour but not whitdrawal

I want to try withdrawals and see if all are affected but I don't want to make an early sold to some altcoins on my portfolio. Im a basic user there with minimum limit so Im prone to that "Awaiting Approval". This is alarming as why the hell it takes so long to resolves this kind of issues.

I will back to this thread once I did withdrawals and see if I will be one of those waiting peepz. Just waiting for target price to dump coins and it's now nearer during 24h monitoring.

Maybe there are just updating and stuff in past i have withdrawn more than 1 btc and faced zero problems maybe they are just updating their wallet as they currently have the lowest withdrawal fees in the market. Anyways i do have some funds let me try to withdraw those if any issue I'll update.
Edit : Nothing's really wrong i just withdrew and they instantly sent it. Here's the txid : 503c120539d26f60e54f7ebc50157c342999abbbc9e42cb082288b8322c26b5a . I withdrew 0.136 maybe it's better if you wait.

Already one week I did not get any response on my ticket and until now the withdrawal status is still "Awaiting Approval". >:(

I have ticket going on to twelfth day now. Zero response.

Don't use their deposit addresses for Coinbase transactions (mined directly to them). It doesn't register properly, but gets swept into their house accounts with no credit.

I'll reply to this once I finally get someone. 12 days and going is pretty ridiculous.

In the above comment I seen that Bitcoin transaction of 0.1btc is confined with 50 confirmation , I don't think that anything gone bad  .
Here I have about 50-60 friends who are making trading at the poloniex and making daily withdrawal of Bitcoin and also deposit but only few of them are facing such problems and are only for maximum 1 hours to 24 hours .
And also I am also using the poloniex but still didn't face any problem  .
Here it seems that poloniex is making some experiment with the users to sending the Bitcoin with limited no. Of transaction with low fee .
Because in the single withdraw we can see many transaction output .
Here is example of the one of the transaction that I got from the above discussion
https://blockchain.info/address/1Hpjg1oEv6eU7k8dPcukYwqaNiDmhqCf76 ( this address recieved the Bitcoin last time with multiple output by the sender address )

I do not know what some people what to gain by trying to destroy other people business, poloniex is a good exchange at least to the best of my knowledge; bad people only carry rumor without verifying.

I withdrew funds from poloniex yesterday and it was transferred and confirmed as fast as possible;

Argument about more than 0.2 btc withdrawal stuck - https://blockchain.info/address/17A16QmavnUfCW11DAApiJxp7ARnxN5pGX

Stop spreading bad rumor.

Poloniex is still reliable and reputable exchanger. I also have the same problem in this case withdraw the doge from there. Wait 72 hours before send the ticket again. Hopefully your withdraw quickly approve.

Same here  :-[

Something fishy is going on, I am really afraid my funds are lost.  :'(

No one spreading rumor. Anything automated works as it should for me.
If you have issue that requires support, no one is answering.
My issue over 2 weeks old missing Coinbase transaction, still zero response.
I've subsequently been able to deposit and confirm regular transactions, trade and withdraw.
Not about to forget the one deposit because no one mans the support desk.

It seems to be a ghost ship platform.

30 Days

Same here awaiting approval for 3 days+ and nothing yet .. support didn't respond to any of my tickets..

Me too facing this problems and it's been a week now and still awaiting approval

Poloniex is one of the largest crypto exchange.
They maybe as big as Mt.gox, if they went, that would be another setback to crypto world.

any news?

I know a lot of people that are saying they cant withdraw, the only problem i had so far is that my ETC was never deposited in to poloniex exchange. i made a ticket 2 days ago no response so far.

My missing deposit finally showed up today, 18 days after the fact.
The deposit date/time was retroactive to the date the Doge block was mined.

The support ticket never had any response during the entire time.
I'm sure a huge portion of customers are 0.01BTC traders. It probably sucks out any profit for them to offer support.

Guys just be patient i received my withdrawals today ..

I'm patient for quite a lot of time (more then 3 weeks). and they don't answer anything

Active poloniex user here. No problems depositing and withdrawing on my end.

Using the same bitcoin address to send and receive ever since the beginning. My guess is their system detected suspicious activity from your account.

No problems here. I made a 2 btc withdrawal yesterday and another one today. Both arrived at the intended address quickly.

I think some people are actively trying to spread panic about Poloniex. For those who genuinely are waiting for their withdrawals, you should enable 2fa, i've heard the mods say that it speeds up withdrawals(fewer withdrawals have to be looked into manually with 2fa enabled).

2fa is on... and I posted in a different topic a link to jpeg -

Today I tried another withdrawal - and you can guess what happened

Iv'e been around to see several exchanges collapsing, and it usually starts like this - No one to talk to, cant get your money out of the exchange.
I hope its a false alarm. but just be-aware (or if you can withdraw to a different exchange- do that while you can)

this is happening when you are using an ILLEGAL exchanger, without a financial license ...

FINCEN registration means NOTHING. It's just a shit. You can register yourself NOW.

Poloniex is incorporated in USA and according to FINCEN, Polo must be registered as MSB in each state they are operating. Guess what?! They are not. Smiley


USE only exchangers who have one, like Gemini,Bitstamp, Circle, Coinbase, Itbit.

The former operator of the now-defunct bitcoin exchange Coin.mx has been sentenced to five-and-a-half years in prison.
The sentencing of Anthony Murgio comes months after he plead guilty to operating an unlicensed money transmission business in January.

Poloniex, Kraken and MANY others are doing the same. It's just a matter of them until they will be closed.

Never used Poloniex as I have just got into Crypto. Not looking great from what I read here.
Just signed up with Kraken and already having problems.  
I am waiting for the Blocknet Decentralized exchange (wallet to wallet of like 8 currencies right now) to launch next month.  Then I wont have deal with a middleman exchanges and will have full control.  Doing crypto in UK is hard man. Uk banks shutting accounts.

if things went good with you that doesn't make other people liars , you can't ignore other people's problems
just open poloniex twitter and check how people are replying to their tweers , people are losing money and they aren't spreading bad rumors
me personally my account has been locked since May 1st , and once I requested my withdrawal their support stopped responding to me
I have over 3K USD stuck at their site for almost two months now

Same here.
Did two transfers in two weeks with 0.01 btc all gone fast
did 3rd one late evening the day I did 2nd one and it got stuck for 3 days already no reply from support

withdrawal   Complete    !!!!!   BTC    0.02178423     10 days

No I don't have any problem with my withdrawals in Poloniex. Looks like this newbie is a competitor of Poloniex. LOL

oh really !! so now we can't take newbies seriously at all ??
btw I'm Legendary and I have a problem with poloniex , I requested my withdrawal over 45 days and they haven't paid me a satoshi
so if you are lucky enough to have a good experience with them that doesn't make poloniex a good site , just check their twitter and see how many people are complaining

oh damn, i've seen you complain about poloniex and their customer support ignoring you for like 1 and a half months now, you still haven't received any coin nor communication from them? Thought that all this time was plenty for poloniex to sort themselves out but apparently not.

The biggest alarm bell to me is the fact that they have removed their trollbox. it was one of the integral parts of their community and now they've just removed it. This is just further proof that they want to censor free discussion of their service, because they know that they are scamming selectively.

Some people are able to withdraw as usual, others are not. IT's not worth the risk! Use bittrex.

nope haven't heard a word from them , not sure if they will ever pay me my money
what's killing me that they processed some tickets that are newer but they are ignoring my ticket even it doesn't take them time to solve , all they have to do is process a withdrawal

I'm trying to reach the community here and sharing my experience with them , Poloniex isn't worth the risk anymore

when they pay me I will update my thread and the other threads

I do not know why some people have problems with withdraw I never  have  such a problem perhaps is the size of the sum which they want withdraw  to  to me are all transactions carried out within 30 minutes, the fastest transfer BTC has just from poloniex.
My biggest transaction was 0.1 BTC but it has been quite a while ago now I mostly withdraw to 0.01BTC

you don't exist as client because of these amounts :)

My account just got upgraded to the 2nd Level after sending in a support ticket and them having to manually accept it (system verification failed).

My withdrawal on the other hand is not working either. It might not be a problem on their end because I haven't received the withdrawal confirmation e-mail and it could be blocked by my provider (hotmail). The problem is that I'm sending the funds to an exchange and the offer is only valid for 30 minutes (btcdirect). So if I send it 10 days from now that would be dumb. I don't want to send it to my wallet and then to the exchange but I guess I'll have to do that if I ever want to see it through.

Could be better.
