I have barely any coins on the exchange and I don't find it even worth withdrawing my tokens. I have some CCT tokens and they are charging more tokens as fee than the amount of tokens I have. They were worth 1200 dollars earlier but now worth $2. I can either sell them in distress sale or keep them on the exchange. Same goes for FLP.
Sorry to hear your investment went down but as a plus point, if you were trying to withdraw funds that were worth several hundred or several thousands then you would definitely be selectively scammed.

I was also hoping to see a bigger office and over a hundred employee but who needs that if the exchange has a strong security and it is safe to trade, the only downside is with few employee some concern are not being met.

HitBTC is clearly a SCAM. Their conduct shows they are insolvent and block user funds under a false pretense of KYC procedure. It's better to keep away from those crooks.

The complaints against them are piling up. How much longer can they keep getting away with freezing user accounts to selective scam? They should be investigated by the authorities and appropriate action should be taken.

Sorry to read about your issues. Sadly these types of complaints against HitBTC are becoming more and more common. The cases against them pile up continuously.

Mate, you're missing the point. It's not about a bigger office or over a hundred employees. Actually, the first two images that you're seeing in my post are the ones which are provided by HitBTC at their official website, while the next two images that you're seeing are the ones which were captured by a visitor (who visited HitBTC's office). Surprisingly (or maybe unsurprisingly?), their office was locked up and no one (of HitBTC team) was present at that address. Most of the complaints about Hitbtc could be narrowed down to the problem with the delays in withdrawals. People who say they face troubles with KYC, later manage to pass it and withdraw their coins. Generally, that's it. Hitbtc should work faster but it's not a scam.

Well no. I am faced with forced KYC even though I requested to withdraw an amount much below their own limits for KYC. It just shows they are using KYC as a measure to slow down or in cases completely block withdrawals and this points directly to the issue of insolvency. There are many exchanges who are slow to process KYC procedures but they do not force them on their clients when the clients try to withdraw limited amounts of money - HitBTC does, so it's an abnormal situation indicating they operate on illegally borrowed and in cases out right stolen money.

Some say that the company goes insolvent but people actually withdraw their coins from HitBTC. I've seen many reports on social media — first, they complain that they cannot withdraw their money, then they say that the support team reached them out and they withdrew their funds. So I guess the rumors about the bad financial situation are overblown.

With the accusations of selective scamming increasing everyday, when will authorities take action against HitBTC?

So you say that they do KYC slowly, other exchanges do it slowly too, and all of a sudden you claim that Hitbtc is insolvent although people withdraw their coins from this exchange. I didn't manage to find any info specifying which amount of money is "below limits for KYC". It's sad that you can't pass KYC, but I can't agree with your accusations. More than that, you have no evidence, only your guessings.

Contact the support team. What can be easier? If they don't respond, reach out them via social media (Reddt, Twitter, Facebook...)

That is a trend that all exchanges implement when they are selective scamming their users.
