### 3/5 — Gate keeps your bonus

*2026-07-30, version 12.50.0*

They hold it until you nag them nonstop.

### 2/5 — Withdrawal options not available

*2026-07-05, version 12.47.1*

I can’t find withdrawal listings for either crypto currency

### 1/5 — Don’t use

*2026-06-28, version 12.45.0*

This app holds your crypto a minimum of 5 days. Then when you go to transfer it, they hold it 2 more days. Don’t waste your time

### 1/5 — High Fees, Misleading Promotions

*2026-06-27, version 12.45.0*

This app is not worth using. I’ve tried many crypto apps, and this app has some of the highest fees I’ve ever seen. On top of that, they have very misleading referral offers. They bury language in their T&Cs that invalidates what’s posted in bold language. Really shady company, would not recommend.

### 1/5 — Comfirm SMS not coming

*2026-06-08, version 12.45.0*

I can’t access my account

### 2/5 — Invalid captcha. Please try again

*2026-06-05, version 12.45.0*

The app performance has drastically reduced and that turning off

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2026-05-26, version 12.44.0*

This app is absolutely awful, makes sending a simple transaction a complete headache. Won’t let me send and no real people to talk too. Worst crypto app I’ve ever seen

### 1/5 — Refund

*2026-05-10, version 12.43.1*

refund,

When you have an issue, you try to get some help this is what happens

I did send it. And you all say you can’t approve it. Everything I sent. You all don’t approve. You all either delete it or say it’s not good enough.

I just want my money out of this app  so I can delete it and never use it again

### 1/5 — Doesn’t let you do anything with your crypto immediately

*2026-05-06, version 12.43.1*

I literally put $500 into the app and over a week of nothing, not able to withdraw or send it, so converted it back into USD to send it back to myself only for it to still not allow me to do anything very poor app

### 1/5 — Unable to withdraw or send to another wallet.   APP A SCAM DONT USE

*2026-05-05, version 12.43.0*

After all verifications and 2FA and even waited for 5days, I’m still unable to withdraw to my other wallet everytime I try to withdraw it takes me to my debit card and PayPal like I want to make a deposit which I just want to move my bitcoin I bought to my other wallet it’s not fair and this app is a SCAM

### 2/5 — When will the card work? I really miss this.

*2026-04-25, version 12.42.0*

It was so convenient to pay with crypto everywhere via Apple Pay, it's a shame that this feature is not available now

### 1/5 — Withdrawal issues

*2026-04-23, version 12.42.0*

This app is not advise able to use at all, since the first day I’ve purchased bitcoin on this app after verification of my account I was unable to withdraw my fund to my other wallet even to the account user it just keep telling me that kyc I don’t understand the hell the app is all about please don’t use it

### 1/5 — This is a scam company

*2026-04-23, version 12.42.0*

### 1/5 — Trash currency app

*2026-04-20, version 12.41.0*

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Poor service

*2026-08-12, version 12.51.0*

I can’t withdraw my crypto

### 1/5 — Bad App

*2026-08-11, version 12.51.0*

Stopped letting me purchase with my cards, support is useless

### 1/5 — verification

*2026-08-07, version 12.51.0*

makes you take a selfie with your card and takes forever to verify pretty sure it’s a scam and have put int 1,6k

### 1/5 — Avoid this company

*2026-08-07, version 12.51.0*

Fees are higher than competitors and, as others have noted, they employ dubious tactics to try to prevent you from withdrawing your money. 

In August 2026 I was asked to provide copious amounts of information, including screen shots, from a crypto transaction in 2024, as a “verification step”to enable me to withdraw my money. 

This is despite the app showing me as verified after providing banking details, national insurance number, passport details, address, linking cards etc etc. 

I still have not been able to withdraw the funds I have sitting in my CEX account. 

Interestingly, Santander and Barclays have both recently started refusing to process payments to this company, citing fraud prevention / protection.

### 1/5 — Very Disappointed With CEX.IO Support

*2026-07-26, version 12.49.1*

I have been using CEX.IO for a long time without any problems. I am a UK customer and I used to be able to deposit money with my debit card. Then suddenly the card deposit option disappeared and now the app only shows crypto deposits.

I contacted customer support and they told me they were migrating UK users and asked me to wait a couple of days. It has now been more than two months and nothing has changed. I have received no clear updates and no real solution.

This has been very frustrating because I cannot use the service the way I used to. If you are going to migrate customers, at least keep them informed with honest updates instead of making them wait for months.

At this point I am seriously thinking about deleting my CEX.IO account because I have completely lost confidence in the service. I hope this review encourages the company to improve its communication and support for UK customers.

### 1/5 — Scam App

*2026-07-21, version 12.49.1*

Non-existent support from Eastern Europe. Highest fees in industry and issues withdrawing funds.

### 1/5 — This site is very poor and won’t pay

*2026-07-17, version 12.49.1*

I’ve never experienced anything like this in my entire life. A crypto exchange that has no money.

They do promotions advertising sign up bonus for new user.

What they don’t say is it’s limited to 100 customers and they won’t make an announcement when the spots have been filled.

They run promotions that have expired for weeks and customers receive no bonus.

Some would that call a scam.

This is not a legitimate crypto exchange like kraken or others

### 1/5 — Withdrawal options not still available after 3 constant updates

*2026-07-17, version 12.49.1*

Withdrawal options not still available after 3 constant updates, this is starting to look like a fraudulent app holding on to peoples money for no exact reason

### 1/5 — WARNING DO NOT USE! SCAM

*2026-07-10, version 12.48.0*

They charge a 3% fee which is 3x+ higher than anywhere else and they will restrict your account for no reason and give no explanation and you won’t be able to move your crypto to your wallet they are SCAMMERS BEWARE. They forced me to sell my bitcoin and transfer cash via ACH and said “they don’t have to give a reason” DANGER they say what they’re doing is “legal” but they’re using the law to ROB PEOPLE. Bitcoin is up $1500 since they forced me to sell and they are still holding my money hostage, the transfer to my bank has been pending for 24 hours with no explanation. I threatened to report them to Apple and the money went through shortly after but I would look for any other option to buy crypto if you can.

### 1/5 — Fees too high

*2026-06-30, version 12.46.0*

They charge a 3% fee to buy bitcoin and there’s no warning about it before you buy. 3% is a massive fee almost no one charges that much.

### 5/5 — A Top notch recovery pundit in resolving lost funds cases with professionalism and expertise.

*2026-07-18, version 12.49.1*

I need to share this here so you won't lose your money cheaply to scam brokers. I invested about $487,504 on a binary option platform then I decideo to withdraw after several weeks but the withdrawal wasn't successful, then I tried to contact the platform via email and phone number, I didn't get a response from them that was when everything started looking weird.
Some weeks later I got a mail from them insisting I should invest more money if I want to withdraw my money which I rejected, and! never hear from them again that was when I knew I had been scammed. I was really devastated at those moment and felt so bad that my hard earned money was gone. After some months I came across a lot of testimonies on the web how Procyberhacksrecovery at gmail, com had helped many people recovered their stolen, scammed or duped money on bitcoin or any other form in digital currency. I contacted them and they promised to help me get my money back asked me some info about the scammer which I provided. The result was amazing I recovered all my stolen money back in hours I was so happy as I never believe I could get my money back. Thanks to PROCYBERHACKSRECOVERY via gMail. Com you restore my happiness as I could see my funds in my wallet. Thank you.
