Title: [Closed]Is coinbase.com still alive?
Post by: rockxie on August 13, 2013, 06:09:33 PM
I use coinbase.com to recieve bitcoins,and finaly I met a problem of "unconfirmed transaction" , so that I can't send my bitcoins to any address now .The status was "pending " for 24h,and then the transaction will be cancel.

I was troubled by this problem for days(>5 days) ,and I wrote emails to coinbase.com, but didn't get any reply from them.

What happened ?

Is coinbase.com still alive ?    :(


[2013/9/24 edit]


So finally the problem seems  to have been resolved. Here was reply:

Quote
It was somehow recorded in your balance twice adding 85.44 BTC twice to your account. So when you tried to send the additional 85 BTC out of your account, it was staying pending because those bitcoin were already spent.

And my account was adjust to 0.2btc  :'(

Perhaps this was the trueth , but I have been unable to reconciliation now ,as too many transations in my account.

Anyway this post is ended now,Thanks for your attention.

Did they cancel the transaction or do you still have the transaction saying pending?

Transactions will be canceled automaticlly after 24 hours ,and then bitcoins return to my account.

I can't send any bitcoins now ,when I send ,it shows "pending" ,and then it will be canceled after 24 hours later.

I was very surprised that coinbase.com didn't reply the email and help posts more than 2days.

I was having this problem two or three days ago.  It even told me that I had the bitcoins in my account and let me try to transfer them, but of course they never went anywhere and those transactions were removed from my history.

They finally showed up about 12 hrs later and Coinbase wrote me back and said they were having problems with "blockchain sync" or something like that.  I don't buy it but seems like it was working correctly the last couple of days.

Are you verified? I would suggest speaking with Coblee, he's technically not Customer Support but he may be able to provide some advice.

I remember when everyone was saying to use coinbase. All the good places seem to go to shit after a while.

Their e-mail response time seems to be around one week. At least they do reply to you.

They just banned one of my bank accounts out of the blue today saying that my order was "high risk".  I'm in the USA and never done anything unusual with my account.  Oh well whatever.

Olaf from Coinbase here.

I'm sorry about the cancellation. We use machine learning algorithms to determine risk, and their ability to differentiate a scammer from a legitimate user is getting better, but isn't perfect. Shoot me a PM with enough of your email address that I can find your account, or send a note to support[at]coinbase.com, and I'll review your account.

I also apologize for the delays in support responses in the last couple weeks - we are actively hiring additional support staff.

Olaf,

Any thoughts on rockxie's situation?


Title: Re: Is coinbase.com still alive?
Post by: Olaf (Coinbase) on August 29, 2013, 04:38:46 AM
Franktank,

At first I thought it was an issue with a previous unconfirmed transaction which was showing in his account balance - this would cause him to see a positive balance but not "really" have access to the bitcoin, so when he attempted to send it offsite it would result in another unconfirmed transaction.

This wasn't the case, however, so I forwarded his case and a couple others like his to our lead engineer, who pushed a fix that seemed to correct the other users' problems but not rockxie's. Now we're looking at it again.

I know the delay on this case is unacceptable, but we're working now to find the bug and patch it as soon as we can.

Coinbase canceled my .5 BTC as "high risk".

Email me at support[at]coinbase.com and I'll manually examine your account - apologies for the trouble!

 >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(  problem is still there.

Coinbase , if you can't fix this bug , could you send me my bitcoins back first ?

I'm very confused that why need I wait for your late resolvement . If you can't fix it , then I can't withdraw my money forever ?

Coinbase lowered instant buys to 10btc a week, to help protect itself from fraud.

I guarantee coinbase isn't keeping 86 bitcoins from you. Take that crazy talk elsewhere.

They never replied besides automated msg when I had several problems...BTW Ive been there for about 1 and a half months and I still need to wait 18 days for verification lv 2 because they cancelled a transaction and set my 8 days left count back to 30. I hate that company, they dont even have a phone # listed when I tried a directory. Thats just sketchy as FU&* in all ways/

Seems even to this day they are having trouble getting shit straight. They verified an account and when selling bitcoins they stated account not found. Then of course my 3 BTC would be refunded, it is now more than 24 hours later and I'm still waiting... Not happy
