Whatever your "balls" are made, the support of the pure-Chinese exchanges will crush them upon the wall. Great Wall.

All issues with XVG wallet solved, please check your XVG balances on your accounts.

Sorry for delay.

I confirm: although with a considerable delay, but the coins are credited.
I apologize for the overly harsh words.

You be the judge:

Yobit allows you to buy coins then change the wallet to "maintenance mode" for the whole year.  This prevents you to move your coins to your own wallet to let it stake.  This is call manipulation.  So is it a scam?

for sure it is

19 days... ...Coins are not credited to the account on a repeatedly confirmed transaction and there is no response from support for reasons.

That sounds suspiciously like my experience with Cryptsy before Vern
ran off to China with everyone's money. Anytime an exchange starts
not responding to support tickets, or shutting down their trollbox to
prevent the word spreading, is the time to get out if you can. I try not to
keep anything at all on exchanges, I learned my lesson from Bitclockers
and Mt Gox and Deepbit and Cryptsy and (maybe) BTC-e and (maybe) some
other one. Fool me 3 times or more shame the fuck on me, right?

But yeah, anyway. Keep your coins close, or risk them.

I quit polo about 4 months ago. There is a better user support on other exchanges.

It depends. If the coins you are looking to withdraw are in maintenance mode, and the coin in question, or better said, its network doesn't experience any difficulties, then it's definitely shady.

Especially if they happen to remain in maintenance mode for such a long period of time. If it were just a few days, or a week at most, things would be different, but as per you described things, this isn't okay.

Abusing their position for manipulation purposes? Definitely. Scam? I can't say yes or no ~ my thought is more in between.

i don't have any problem in yobit for deposit and withdrawal, maybe when you want to withdraw, the wallet in yobit is maintenance so you can not withdraw like usual. i can say this because i have seen many times the wallet in yobit in maintenance and this makes people can not withdraw their coin. but for saying scam, i don't know and if you have send ticket to them, i think the only you need to do is waiting until they reply your ticket. i hope your problem can be solve.

we call yobit scam, because their admins need several months to solve any usual problems. they are not answering on any ticket and they dont care about their users.

when you have money somewhere and cannot withdraw your money for several month, it calls scam. so i advice all, stay away from this site or you will have many problems.

good luck to all...

Yobit business practice:

Jail your coin -->  Coin price dropped to 1 satoshi --> Yobit bought all the coins at 1 satoshi  -->  Open up the wallet -->  price went up to market price -->  Yobit sold all your coins at market price and make a ton load of money -->  Jail your coin again   ... rinse and start over again
the SEC should investigate Yobit for price manipulation and jail all the owners for doing this.

I deposited ETH and it took 12 hours.

900 Confirmations and it is still not showing in the Balance

Yobit is one of the worst exchange

[stclair]

Still waiting on a confirmation after 5 days. Asked them to cancel the withdrawal, told me it was impossible, Every other exchange i use has backups for this kind of thing. No excuses. If your here to make money and not loose it, do not use Yobit in any way. forgot those crappy little coins that no other exchanges want but you think is interesting, or the high prices compared to other exchanges.  It's pure con. Does anyone know the people behind it?

[oyinkansolaberry]

I don't think Yobit is a scam, but I know they need to improve on their service delivery. sometimes their turn around time is not as fast as users want it to be. they probably need more hands to respond to complaints and provide feedback to enquiries in the shortest possible time. so generally Yobit is not scam.

[stclair]

Maybe it's not a scam... maybe it's more like lending a herion addict on the street $50 and expecting him to return it the next day. Maybe it's more like that....

[tel29]

So, 22 days no answer from support. Not enrolled 6.545407 ETH on the balance sent to the smart contract will require manual acceptance.

Admin, HELP!

[stclair]

Keep spamming them , they will return it once you start making noise on the nets. That's how they operate, they make it difficult , they don't steal. They just hope people will give up...Personally, taking a persons funds and making it difficult for them to access is a scam. If they had these known issues. they would have hired someone to fix them... This has been going on for months and they are making big money of the trades. Let's just call a spade a spade. It's a scam.

You are right they are not scam they are not taking this all seriously its very simple they need to hire someone who take care all this and give good service because if they start from now still they can do very good business because they have potential but currently they are not taking this all as business just trying peoples give up

[Arkham Knight]

No but it is full of scamcoin so I can only say indirectly that Yobit is scam. Their maintenance on wallet address gets me annoyed everytime but they are still a good exchange for arbitrage opportunities.

[The Cryptologist]

Probably. Their pump and dump bots that they even managed to sell coins that are already dead. This is what I always heard from other traders so you must be very careful on choosing your coins there.
