### 1/5 — SCAMMERS

*2023-12-28, version 5.3.110*

Don’t add money at this Apps ,They flash your money

### 1/5 — “New sign ups have been temporarily paused.”

*2023-12-05, version 5.3.110*

Why? lol I’ve never NOT been able to sign up for an exchange.

### 1/5 — Can’t access my funds

*2023-11-01, version 5.3.110*

They say I don’t have an account. I can show them a screen shot of it. Don’t use this exchange. You e been warned .. uphold or crypto.com

### 1/5 — Be warned

*2023-09-19, version 5.3.110*

After purchasing crypto and sending to my exodus wallet, account was frozen and in order to unlock it, they required the following: 

Three most recent bank statements, current paystub, screenshots of my bank account showing transactions, reason for buying crypto… 

After confirming all of this, I then get another request asking my current external wallet balance and they want to know where the crypto goes when it leaves my Exodus wallet. My exodus wallet has nothing to do with OKCoin and should be irrelevant. 

This would be exactly like going to the ATM withdrawing cash and the bank locking the account until you show them how the cash was spent. Or requiring receipts for debit card purchase. 

This is the most absurd verification I’ve ever been through. Lookout for our newest YouTube video exposing this ridiculous invasion of privacy.

### 1/5 — Do not use if you are not in America!

*2023-08-18, version 5.3.110*

This app continues to fail in many different areas. Reset codes simply don’t come through, ensuring that it’s impossible to reset your password and access your account when locked out. And accessing extra help is simply out of the question, as the help page doesn’t load. Both of these have ensured that I cannot access my account any more. Avoid!

### 4/5 — Great For US…App Is Overpriced

*2023-07-13, version 5.3.110*

You pay for convenience. 
BEWARE:  If you convert using the app you will pay 10X the fees than making a limit order through the website directly. 

Maker/Taker trading orders are not accessible through the app and deposits default to your funding account - which cannot be transferred to the trading account through the app either (crypto must be in trading account to sell). 

Limit (maker) orders can only be placed directly on website and while liquidity is not as high as some of the other US EX giants (Crypto.com, Kraken, Coinbase, etc.), the spread is at or BETTER the current global market price on their regular exchange. It is like the regular apps for other giants - you pay a massive spread unless trading on an “advanced app” with an order book, which OkCoin lacks. 

Nonetheless, I suggest creating using the Apple “Shortcuts” feature to make a custom icon with an action (Safari) to open their website instead of using this app. Avoid the trap of paying high fees…

0.10% fee to sell for most retail traders. $0 fee to ACH withdrawal, and low minimum. Overall amazing in all other regards compared to many other U.S. crypto exchanges. I recommend going here if you need to SELL CRYPTO TO FIAT. 

There is a 10-day hold before you can withdrawal if depositing fiat via ACH. Common for many exchanges. I found Strike app is the solution for free ACH deposit and instant withdrawal. No fees and only a 0.5% spread on the BTC market price. They also support lightning network. Way better for BTC than Cash App lol.

### 1/5 — SMS text verification not working

*2023-07-07, version 5.3.110*

The app needs to updated to send the code via email if the sms text or call feature isn’t working. Customer service is not helpful either. I’ve updated the app and it still does let me login.

### 1/5 — Do not buy on this platform

*2023-06-21, version 5.3.110*

Cannot remove even btc from your account. You own nothing if purchasing from here.

### 1/5 — What a great service

*2023-05-21, version 5.3.87*

Good to know anyone can sign into your account and take your money and when you submit a fraud claim they tell you you owe them 3x as much as you just had stolen from you. There are more reliable services you can use that won’t charge you for identity theft, I recommend using them instead of this one.

### 1/5 — Can't do anything

*2023-03-30, version 5.3.87*

I can't sell nor transfer any asset to the trading account. This company is probably dead. Not sure when I could get my money back.

### 1/5 — Thieves!!!

*2023-03-07, version 5.3.87*

This app was fine until they stopped letting me sell my coins or even convert them to other tokens. As soon as you guys let me cash out I will not use your platform ever again, bet on that. It’s Tuesday March 7 2023, and I tried over 15 tries to sell my tokens and it says it FAILS all the time!!! THIEVES!!!

### 1/5 — Money

*2025-02-12, version 5.3.110*

The app stop working. Took all my money!!!!

### 1/5 — Do not use

*2024-11-23, version 5.3.110*

This app will probably go bankrupt just like voyager and Celsius. Took my polygon matic and customer service doesn’t answer.

### 1/5 — Account access no longer available

*2024-08-16, version 5.3.110*

This seems very suspicious why is it saying suddenly on the app your account access is no longer available. 

Very concerning you stole my money. Release my assets.

### 1/5 — Withdrawal Fees

*2024-04-25, version 5.3.110*

I accidentally withdrew money to a savings account and was charged a $20 fee for the withdrawal. Okcoin let me attempt to withdraw the money and then informed me it didn’t work and refused to refund the $20 transfer fee.

### 1/5 — SCAM company

*2024-03-25, version 5.3.110*

OKCoin is run as a fraudulent operation. I tried to withdraw my CRV but the transaction has been stuck pending for a week. Opened a support ticket but they refuse to help me regain access to my funds. I will be hiring a lawyer. Do not use this app it is an exit scam!

### 1/5 — Scam!

*2024-03-23, version 5.3.110*

Please don’t get into this app! They will lock your account and will be asking for the last three statements of your  bank account! This is ridiculous!

### 1/5 — Okcoin ESCAMMERS

*2024-03-18, version 5.3.110*

Don’t add many on Okcoin escammers escammers
Be careful

### 1/5 — Stolen Funds

*2024-03-15, version 5.3.110*

Please be very careful. There is no support and I have had to contact the FBI as they have removed over 15k worth of assets from my account.  BEWARE!!!

### 1/5 — Do not buy crypto here

*2023-12-31, version 5.3.110*

They held $2000 from me for 8 days. There support is non-existent. Do not trust. Filed complaints with all federal bureaus

### 1/5 — Okcoin will locked your funds

*2023-12-31, version 5.3.110*

I have invested about 9000$ in BTC with okcoin and within few days I was told they have suspended my accounts and given me upto 180days .. now the 180 days has passed ad I have written them several times to get my funds and assets withdrawn and no response from any of support Team. Stay away from them they are criminals and fraudulent apps

I recently fall into a big scam from a trading platform called Interactive Brokers LLC trading, Unfortunately for me, I invested 65,000GBP worth of bitcoin with a fraudulent company. I was happy to watch my account grow to 240,000 GBP within a couple of weeks. But i didn't realize i was dealing with a scam company, until i tried to make an attempt to withdraw. I made a withdrawal request, and noticed my account was suddenly blocked for no apparent reason. I tried contacting customer support, but all to no avail. I needed my money back at all cost, because i could not afford to let it go. So i tried all possible means to make sure i recovered my scammed bitcoin. I did a lot of online search for help, and tried to see if there were other people who had any similar experience. I stumbled upon a cryptocurrency forum were a couple of people mentioned that they had been through the same process but were able to recover their lost cryptocurrency, funds with the help of CyberTeam072 @ gMail So i file a report and he was able to help me get back all my lost funds within 3hrs i feel indebted to him.

Are we safe? That's the question I keep on asking, the internet is becoming more unsafe and so many unethical people derive joy from defrauding victims whenever they can. I have fallen victim to their scam tactics and lost 300,000 dollars worth of Bitcoin from my Binance account after I tried to invest in cryptocurrency. I was unlucky to be one of the many victims who have fallen prey to these scam artists, with their usual tactics of cryptocurrency manipulation. My advice to everyone out there is to be cautious and seek enough information before investing in cryptocurrency. I would be in serious financial trouble and probably would have lost my house without the intervention of Joehackexpert Recovery Home, a cryptocurrency and digital currency recovery company, I was very fortunate to be referred to them by my cousin who was a client of Joehackexpert Recovery Home for many years back. It was remarkable that a team of cyber security professionals and ethical hackers was able to recover my funds for me. I’m grateful for their service and I recommend Joe to everyone out there. Kindly contact them if you need their services. Joehackexpert At Gmail. I contact them and they promised to help me to get my money back, they asked me some personal details of the scammer which I provided. The result was amazing I recovered all my stolen money back. This is my crypto Investment Experience.
