With the coming improvements to the market, I have managed to save a healthy sum inorder to have my dream of a crypto exchange come to life. I’ve done all the back work which includes, registering, applying and working towards a license, creating a team, hiring the right officers, marketing expenses. No expense has been spared with establishing myself in the market. I’d like to introduce you to the culprit:
Crypto2cloud, a service run by Azbit Exchange. I was attracted to this exchange because Azbit is in the top 40 exchanges, I’m not sure how they run this exchange. If it’s any reflection of what I’ve experienced then I pity their customers. Allow me to take you through the experience that I’ve had and dismantle the delivery product to what is advertised piece by piece so no one has to ever go through this ever again;
On initial contact, you’ll deal with Andrew Akulenko (not doxing, you can find it on their website), you’ll have a phone call and get promised the world and be sent a PDF with their different packages. I’ll show you the package I’ve picked:

There is no futures option, promised on a future date as it’s not available
There is no copy trading platform, this is also promised on a future date
Liquidity does not work properly for new tokens added on to the exchange.
Tech support is very high at $1700 a month but with what was promised at the time and the reputation and ranking of the exchange. I figured I would pay this given the exceptional service I would receive.
The features that I have been provided are the same as one package down which costs $5000 less.
Now lets take a look at this website page:
You can find the website by going to azbit.com and clicking the tab on the left or crypto2cloud.com.

https://imgur.com/Maf3ImAWe will skip the first 2 and go to business licensing services. I’ve asked for this before I found my consulting firm and no option was provided.
There is no fiat currency processing option available. Promised at a later date
There are no Payment solutions provided. Promised at a later date
https://imgur.com/FHYY3c9This is the part I have the biggest issue with. The delivery time. It says 72 hours, I was told that is for the basic exchange. They promised me 10 days. Actual delivery time: 3 months. You will keep getting delayed, excuse after excuse. No further support is being provided, answers have been delayed right after the payment was demanded.
Here is an example of an exchange they will show you that they’ve done for a customer:

I’ve invested in the exchange itself which is not complete and lacks features, my marketing ads are not converting as people think the exchange looks off, front end not completed, backend issues as well. I can get the issues fixed as I have experienced devs hired and on payroll but they wont let me access myself to do the updates. I’ve asked to purchase the source code so that I may do further development myself, this was ignored and no answer given. What I believe is that by delivering a subpar product they expect monthly payments to drain you. Not making a profit, I’m sure many have quit, thinking it was their own wrong doing or inexperience. I hope no one has to go through this. This is a cry for help and so buyers are aware of what they will experience dealing with this company.
As per proof, I have all chat logs, payment address, personal experiences (in person) as well but I have chosen not to share this as it’s defamation of their character.
