Topic: Bittrex Unverified User - Be Careful ! 0.025 BTC Withdrawal Limit without Warnin - page 2. (Read 8964 times)

Has anyone here recently got verified with basic verification?

Has anyone here recently got verified with enhanced verification?  If so, how long did that take?

So once your enhanced verification is set, that means you will have no issues in the future?  Or could they somehow say okay your limits are 0 etc.

Yeah, you are in the exact same situation like me. Same story , same problem here.
It's insane. First I don't trust these dictators @bittrex with my personal documents.
Second why do I have to do a enhanced verification for 0.5 BTC ? Sure if I want to
convert to US FIAT money I agree to do a  enhanced verification but to send some
small amount of crypto to my personal address ? Really ?

It seems a lawyer is the only solution. Because Bittrex ignores any questions and all Bittrex authority's
went into hiding! It's okay to change Terms and conditions but then you have to give every
LEGACY user a headsup first with a possibility (until years end) to withdraw coins if you are
not happy with new conditions! My coins are locked up but I still can deposit unlimited amounts
of crypto to Bittrex. It doesn't make sense!




Wow, that's  breaking news to me. Didn't know that.  Bittrex is clearly going in the same direction here.
Nothing makes sense at the moment.

I have a small amount there as well and indeed they have now made it 0 for unverified accounts. I have a legacy account and was fine with the lower limits in place before as I only traded small amounts there due to their larger selection of alt coins. I just tried to withdraw a small amount today and it failed. I was last able to do a successful withdrawal on November 1st.

So I go ahead and fill out the information for a basic account and their automated system fails. WTF, I been at same address for many years and I have done similar verification at other more reputable places many times successfully. Now they want me to do enhanced verification to get less than .5 BTC off their site?


This I disagree with as while they can change the terms and conditions, they also need to provide a way to opt out of those terms. Every other place sends an advance notice to you that they are changing their terms and conditions and if you do not agree with them you have the option to close your account and any funds will sent to you. Bittrex is ignoring the law and trapping users funds forcing them to register before they will release them. This is a one way arrangement so how could you agree when you are being basically forced to accept it or forfeit your funds.

As far as solving for layers, yea I think a class action is in order. Hundreds of small amounts do add up considering BTC is now trading at $11k, even half a bitcoin ~$5,500 times hundred or thousands of users adds up quite quickly.

This is the same tactic that Cryptsy used before they folded. They let people trade unregistered for years then the withdrawal problems started. They hid behind the KYC laws and also required verification, but in reality they were just delaying payment as long as they could to make an exit scam. I predict a year from now Bittrex will not exist.

Wrong. Withdrawal of all coins blocked. 0 BTC means 0 in all coins. I tried OMG, XRP, ZEC.

a-zimmerer, alyssa85 thanks for replies !


pealr12, you don't get it. On some day Bittrex without any warning just deceided to disable some accounts and to block coins on another accounts.
There is no news letters or something about rules change, no choice for us, just order to get verified, after 3y on that platform.
On my account there are no pump-dump transactions, any bot activity and etc.

And another major problem - if look into others bittrex threads, then you see that verification for now lasts for MONTHS and no one guarantee that it will be successful, they just think up something to decline it and
you have to start your try again.

For me it looks, like Bittrex was hacked recently or they lost much balance somehow and they just deceided get that money by stealing it from unverified accounts.
They think that while we get verified status (several months !!!) they will recover lost funds from fees and all will be happy or just planning to fully scam in that time.

Do you have a small amount there and you want to solve this small amount via lawyers? that doesn't make sense to me Moreover bittrex can change own T&C that is a problem but hard to argue with them

Problem is I and lot's of other customers don't trust Bittrex anymore.
To much fuckery went on with that exchange. Changing terms and banning users. Really?

I only have a small amount of crypto there
it doesn't make sense to do a enhanced
verification (>100BTC) for that amount I hold.
Will have to get a lawyer to get my money back.

The answer is so simple just get  verified  using your  government id to increase your withdrawal limit into 100 btc a day.
After that you wont have any problem  everytime your making a withdrawal on bittrex

Sure they can delete your account and take your coins but then they would go into jail for several years.
Proofing transactions is very simple with the blockchain.

Bittrex authority's are completely ignoring customer request and banning people for asking questions where their money is!
I really don't know what to do anymore. Despite going to a lawyer and getting shit done. Takes another 6 month to settle things...
Their claims they need enhanced verification by US law is bullshit because I only have small amounts of cryptocurrency on the exchange and it should not be a problem to withdraw it.

They can delete your account and take your coins.

And the claims they need enhanced verification by US law is bullshit - US law deals only with fiat and only with withdrawals of $2000 in fiat or more in one transaction. Having small amounts on an exchange are not a problem. And cryptocurrency is considered to be an asset in the US like stocks. Just as there is no problem in dealing with stocks, there is no problem dealing in cryptocurrency. Bittrex have invented these rules to seize people's coins.

You mean, that Bittrex is only limiting BTC trading or has different limits on different coins? Then it would indeed be simple to bypass limits on Bittrex.

Lol, sadly that ain't possible. YOU CAN'T DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT 
You will have always to do the extended verification process then
transfer coins and then send a request to delete your account.

I know it's absolutely insane...bittrex changed their rules overnight
without any warning and that meant we could not get our money
 out and they didn't offer any alternative for us either.
dirty way of scamming people out of their money.

whether bitcoin is money or not money or they have AML/KYC
or not doesn't change any of that. as a matter of fact back in 2014 i
remember Coinbase did the exact same thing but sent an Email to
its users whose accounts were blocked the same way, asking them
for a bitcoin address so they can send them their funds.

simple and clean coming from a transparent and non-scammy service.

I advice EVERYBODY to leave negative feedback for these thieves.
I already did it because Bittrex is treating LOYAL customers like shit.

Click link below and then on TRUST. Give negativ fedback:

AGAIN: BITTREX please give all LOYAL LEGACY users the possibility to withdraw their funds until end of year.
That would be perfectly fine for me! Thank you.

Same sad story.
Legacy account, age over 3y. Now daily limit is 0 BTC.
ALL , what do you think, if create ticket to close account, will bittrex let choose where to transfer coins on non-empty wallets without verification or they simply delete your account and take your coins ?

Support just says If I want my money I have to do the extended verification process.
As fare as I know BASIC verification only works with US citizens. Basically everybody
outside US has to send a copy of their ID to them. It's ridiculous

Same here. Had my LEGACY Account everything worked fine.
Then without warning the account was turned into a NEW account with 0.025 BTC limit.
After 3 weeks limit dropped down to 0. Now I can't withdraw anything.

They also changed their FAQ page. Limit on NEW accounts are 0 now.
I don't think they can't just change their term without giving everybody
a heads up.

Yes, same here.

I had a script to withdraw 0.025 BTC everyday and sudently the limit dropped down to 0.

I have some BTC left on it. Basic verification is not working and I'm not trusting a company with this kind of behavior to give them a copy of my ID card.

same here

Poloniex still running until now, when did they shutdown their site? Their daily volume transaction still huge like usual. I hate to say this, but people can only waiting their support ticket get replied because you will never get any reply from Bittrex's support or admin on here.

They have to solve the problems as soon as possible, or the volume of transactions may be reduced. The end can be like Poloniex.

Same here, shittrex locked my funds,
Looking for some advice with lawyers..

Have to find away to release it !

Support system of Bittrex is terrible. My friends didn't  know about withdraw rule and now cannot withdraw. My account withdraw limit is decrease from 3 BTC to 0.4 BTC with any notice.
Hope some whales meet same situation and call bittrex in court.
