I do not frequent Bitcointalk as much as I use to but find it necessary on occasion to warn other people about POSSIBLE issues.  I have encountered an issue for about $70,000 with KuCoin and their lack of a timely resolution is a bit concerning.

It is possible that they are incredibly slow but last time I was involved with anything like this it was Cryptsy and although I got my funds out, others were not as lucky.


I had 4 withdrawals of tokens, each totaling about $60k - $70k.  One of the token withdrawals was reverted in the following transaction:

https://etherscan.io/tx/0xb83e826f7768e634b8096f20b3c4e78f0efe37defc872c29834a4e563eebfffe

I immediately opened a ticket and contacted their online support.  After 3 days I contacted them again as well as their Telegram Channel admins.  I was given the old "wait another day or two"

I have now waited 6 days and continue to get the run around from their online support, Telegram channel and in the meantime I have lost over $35,000 in value on the reverted tokens that I am unable to sell.

As I said, I am not accusing them of stealing (yet), it could be they are incredibly slow or maybe they have been hacked and are trying to cover their asses.  I have no idea but wanted to let others know.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Your and my case is not the same however looking at the tx one thing struck me which is the reverted thing. Someone took a loan from me but the collateral was an outdated token. I did not realize it until I (the escrow) wanted to send them to an exchange. The transaction was failing and it had the same reason.

More details: SCAM ALERT!!! Lost 0.08 BTC [Please stay safe]

I am trying to understand when this reverted thing happens.

Be happy be at peace. Looking forward to BTC at $1M

I see a lot of complains in their TG group about lost or delayed withdrawals and poor support.

Mine is delayed for 2 days already.

And the plot thickens, I have been banned from their Telegram Channel for being upset that my Ticket which is 2000 tickets older than the ones being resolved and I have heard not a word about them returning my tokens.


I do not think I was being unreasonable since I have lost a bunch of money and keep getting the run around from them

The company is a big fraud. Their sites sometimes get stuck. Turned the transaction down. Small transaction problems are less. They sit on the hopes of something bigger. If a large transaction is executed then it will put the problem in trouble. And they take the full money themselves. It does not just say the KuCoin, new exchangers behave like this.Trying to stay away from it.
