When I realized I still had crypto I tried to move it to my bank account but can’t. Now it’s in a wallet but I can’t move it to Coinbase or other wallets - even when the transfer goes through and other wallet key is literally texted to the phone so it’s copy/pasted the receiving account has no record of a transfer. HOW DO I GET MY MONEY OUT OF THIS ??? ### 3/5 — My money was stolen *2025-08-09, version 1.20.21* This app is a scam. DO NOT USE IT FOR TRADING. My coins disappeared from the app. I have images of all transactions but it is like it has vanished in thin air. I no longer have access to the money and it's completely gone. BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE SCAM SCAM SCAM ### 1/5 — SCAM *2025-06-12, version 1.20.21* WARNING! ACHTUNG! PELIGRO! ¡危険!BEWARE! Run away! Crooked thieves! It will catch up to them eventually! Don’t fall for their fake replies and concern, it’s all part of their heist. This is likely a Ponzi scheme. They do this so it appears to Apple that they are being proactive to resolve issues, when the reality is they are just trying to keep from being removed from the App Store. If they have ripped you off, complain to Apple and file a complaint with the IRS, let the international revenue service know that because of their shady tactics they are loosing out on tax revenue! I think there are enough victims at this point to file a class action lawsuit. Read the reviews and make a wise decision before doing business with them. They keep trying to contact me, likely so I remove this review, but it’s not happening. They stole my funds, have stolen funds from others, and are not a trustworthy option for cryptocurrency trading. If you’ve been affected, I suggest contacting the Attorney General in your state and the US Attorney General as well, they need to be held accountable and prosecuted. They use AI to respond to reviews to top it off. ### 1/5 — Customer service non existent *2025-06-11, version 1.20.21* I still cannot login to my account after numerous attempts and contacting customer service. No responses that garnered access- I fear that they are indeed stealing money and should not be trusted ### 1/5 — Still can’t get my 80 dollars *2025-06-03, version 1.20.21* Now they can’t “properly link to my bank account” that hasn’t changed since I signed up. Nothing but scam app ### 1/5 — Beware scams are everywhere *2025-05-10, version 1.20.21* Without a doubt the worst one, the absolute least trusted wallet I’ve ever seen. Constant changing its KYC. Lied about a debt, and sold MY crypto to settle the balance. Bank statements show otherwise. Thousands lost in cash and crypto. I’ve never fallen for crypto scams, until now. Beware. Bank unlinked. BBB notified. ### 1/5 — Class Action Lawsuit Alert *2025-05-03, version 1.20.21* The new update states you waive rights to being in any class action lawsuits. Foresee some class action stuff coming out soon about this app. ### 1/5 — SCAM & ID THEFT *2025-05-02, version 1.20.21* App never verifies and it steals information and money! ### 1/5 — SCAM *2025-05-01, version 1.20.21* BEWARE! Run away! Crooked thieves! It will catch up to them eventually! Don’t fall for their fake replies and concern, it’s all part of their heist. They do this so it appears to Apple that they are being proactive to resolve issues, when the reality is they are just trying to keep from being removed from the App Store.

Also I can’t just deposit money using a bank account I have to transfer money thru my Coinbase wallet because the bank account deposit feature is disabled They don’t have the ability for me to send them money but yet threatening to send me to collections Come get some and I’m sure the department of financial services in ny will be curious about the business practices of this company ### 1/5 — Don’t even try it *2025-04-11, version 1.20.21* This app is the WORST! First off, they started to give people interests back in 2021 and then removed it, but the main issue is the tax part. It’s extremely inaccurate. Their informal document doesn’t match with anything with the IRS or TurboTax so you have to manually look for transactions and cost base that you have to endless scroll to get it because their document doesn’t have it. Same issue you face when trying to export it on Coinledger, misssing information on when you acquired the coins and whatnot. Trust me, never ever try to download this app. ### 1/5 — Unable to access my money *2025-03-19, version 1.20.21* I deposited money into my account a few years ago. I would like to withdraw the funds now. The app asks me to verify. I’ve submitted drivers license, taken selfies. Then I try to upload my insurance id card and the app times out every time putting me back to square one. How can I access my funds? ### 1/5 — I couldn’t believe they scammed me *2025-03-12, version 1.20.21* I left my money in this account for 4 years to find out after selling it today it’s saying 0 balance migration update like what this is crazy they took thousands with no problem but now I want to withdrawn a friction of what I spent I can’t ### 1/5 — Won’t help *2025-02-15, version 1.20.19* Had cryptocurrency with them somebody hacked into my account and they won’t fix it. They’re telling me to update. It’s updated. Would like to have some help on this. ### 1/5 — Anchor *2025-02-04, version 1.20.19* No problem taking your money. Major issues withdrawal or tranfers. Wouldn’t recommend! ### 1/5 — Careful they don’t respond *2025-01-13, version 1.20.18* Had been trying to send minor amount of coins it’s says sending for over a day . Emailed manny times no response via email nor via x platform . Be careful ### 1/5 — Not satissfied *2025-01-05, version 1.20.18* The support team is no very supportive you can never have someone contact you and im NOT ABLE to withdraw my assets at all locked me out of doing so ### 1/5 — Scam - locked out *2024-12-30, version 1.20.18* Provided KYC multiple times after already being at top tier, was locked out of account and help desk stopped responding. Can’t access, trade, withdraw or even update my information. Update: responded per developer’s response. Account and assets still locked out. Still rate this service as a scam based on my experience. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — BIG TIME SCAMMER. BEWARE *2026-01-25, version 1.21.11* This company set an authenticator so that I cant do anything on my account. I only signed up. I never set my bank. I just want them to delete the account. Their "support" is asking for deeply personal information and vital documents they have no business requiring. BEWARE. Do not connect your bank account and do not download or do business with this "company." This company is in the data collection business their privacy is none of their concern. They're looking to sell your information to other parties that's why they lock accounts even for people who never Fully signed up. BEWARE!!!! ### 1/5 — BIG TIME SCAMMER.

Crypto is not even worth buying now since its now centralized. ### 1/5 — Can’t open app *2025-09-16, version 1.21.2* App keeps crashing, I can’t even open the app or log in. Not sure what’s going on but doesn’t look good. ### 1/5 — The worst *2025-09-07, version 1.21.1* The absolute worst app. Everytime I open the app my wallet doesnt load. Its updated. ### 1/5 — Misleading Features *2025-09-06, version 1.21.1* The screenshots and features that Anchor advertises in their App Store landing page are NOT REAL. There is a screenshot of a feature that shows you can make debit card deposits for instant funding, which is very convenient. After I signed up and gave them all my information, they said they do not have this feature. They’re using fake screenshots and false advertising to get you to sign up for their product. Scummy business practice. ### 1/5 — Beware *2025-09-04, version 1.21.1* Is a scam can’t get my money back ### 1/5 — Do not use this app. *2025-07-30, version 1.20.21* In my own personal experience they will not let you withdraw funds from your balance no matter what. My funds have been trapped on this app for years, the "support team" will do anything but help you. I do not trust this app or service whatsoever, they have lost my trust and as I refuse to use their service, they tell me it is the only way I will get my money back and that otherwise my money is trapped without any timeline or expectation it will be resolved. ### 1/5 — Poor service scam *2025-07-13, version 1.20.21* Don’t buy off this app I’ve been out over 2k since 2021 when everything changed I’m still waiting for it to be “resolved” .. I’m trying to take whatever money I got left on the app out now and all of a sudden my account is being reviewed even after having the app since 2020 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — exceedingly remarkable and highly impressive cryptocurrency recovery technology solution!! *2025-09-02* Please be wary of the many scam investment website everywhere, Sometimes in June I lost about 20 BTO and $350,000 worth USDT to a fake MT5 trading platform.
