We have sent the request to our partner bank in order to investigate the location of your funds. Please, note that  due to all the specification of bank processing it may take some time to be completed. Thus, with all respect we are asking you for your patience.

Sorry but I can't believe you. I cannot believe that you cannot immediately call your bank or your partner to ask about. This is a simple bank transaction. So information about, are very very simple reperibile..
I think that this is again another message to waste time .. how much days I have waiting before you reply to this specific message?
I want know exactly WHEN my money are credit in my cex account.
You cannot simply delay at this reply telling me that you don't know. If don't know you, who must know? It's logical, you don't think?
So to repeat: I have to waiting 1 day / 2 day / 3 day / another week? At this question you can't not reply.

Important UPDATE!!
The importance of the update consists that not have an update. CEX.IO account ask me information and then not reply.. same behaviour on their ticketing system. Thousand excuses but no concrete answer and obviously no resolution of the problem.
Now is twenty-fifth day from I made the sepa transfer and no 1 euro was credit on my account.

CEX.IO WAKE UP!!

Mine not.. and obviously not even their bank.. Transfer is made correctly, i've contacted my bank.

Some banks are blocking if they find out it has anything to do with transferring funds from them for cryptocurrencies.
I have received a notice from my bank in regards to this and at times they close the accounts.

This is the bane of the cryptocurrency industry. Guys before you invest in anything cryptocurrency, look out for reviews. I know it takes time but it saves money by helping you notice and avoid scammers.

mean some stupid reason not to send you money back.

"some bullshit"? what you mean?
i ask only my money. If i cannot have i whant know why? but noone reply as you can see..

so they waist your time till the wirw can not be reverse by bank.
then ask you some bullshit and still your money.
is it correct?

So Mister CEX.IO have the same behavior of his colleagues: This is the entire ticket. Some part are obviously obscured. But all the answers do not make sense and are designed to waste time. Mybe in some parts i exaggerated, but I challenge to anyone to be not angry at these answers that offend the intelligence and the fact that they are not going to release the money.
The user CEX.IO asked me for information, as you can see, that i immediately sent him, but he does not answer. Not even for private messages. This is the behavior of this exchange. Think about it before transferring money to CEX.IO exchange. It is possible that you will not have them anymore.

Mister CEX, I'm here. My response was promt, your not. I immediately sent you a pvt message with all info you need. It's really so difficult calling trough a phone your Lituanian bank? Maybe they not have an internet banking where you can clearly see my transfer? Maybe you need another document like criminal record? I can do that, I haven't nothing to hide.
What again you need?
In a few hours I will publish here the image of the entire support request, my and cex.io replies, so that all people can read this message and will realize what absurd situation we are talking about and what were your ridiculous answers (the last one yesterday by a certain Mickey that I do not know if it is a human or a robot).

So, after accused of incompetence your user and partner, I have to accuse you of indifference? I will not be calm just because you have declined to answer me.

You have to resolve my problem giving me my money after 20 days that you hold without a reason.
GIVE ME money in any form you want. Crediting the cex.io account balance as normal or giving back the sepa transfer to my bank. But right now! But just waste time!!

So you tell me that this issue is my problem?! are you accusing my bank of incompetence? We followed your instructions exactly and stop continuing to blame others. The problem is you and your internal procedures or persons !!! I sent you a private message with the required information.

Dear amatella, thank you for bringing the situation to our attention. We are sorry for the inconveniences and the stress you've experienced. Kindly provide us with your user ID in order to check the details of your case and give you an appropriate feedback what had happened. Unfortunately, sometimes our users or payment providers/partners of their banks can neglect the exact procedure/instructions how to make bank deposits/withdrawals to/from CEX.IO, which are clearly stated on our Finance page on deposit/withdrawal tabs and some even highlighted by the red font (ex., mix up some bank details, forgot to include reference and order numbers, consider swift bank transfer as the sepa one - bank details are totally different for this type of transactions, etc.). This may cause the delay in the processing as the bank investigation is needed.

Looking forward to your prompt response

SEPA reversal have a cost. Assured that this is a fraud from CEX.io, because they don't give any explanation of the issue.. considering to asking a reversal procedure after 3 weeks can be more problematic. Maybe could even take longer than a revival of CEX.io than can finally credit money on the account. This people's have thought of everything. They make this dirty game knowing that only the customer would be lost. After having held the money for 3 weeks they can feel satisfied. Thay have worked with our money and made gains while we wait for the credit and then can lose the customer without problems..
Cex.io is absolutely the the worst in this game. All support ticket are managed from bot and customer wait and wait again.
Obviously I cannot surrender and sooner or later i will get my money back. But at the end they have win.
The best method to make this exchange to lost is to not transfer anything and not buy or trade crypto.

I can repeat the advise I have given before - it is better to go to the bank and start SEPA reversal. It may help if you also file a claim with the local law enforcement as this is pure fraud and should be treated as such.

I'm a bit of a loss here why you bank wouldn't assist you with this. They can easily give you all the options available. You're their customer too, so they will help you if you ask.

what was the transfert from was it an cryptocurrency or visa / mastercard  search on google for people with same probleme as you and you will find the answer

You should post this in the Reddit sub. I have seen people have success getting answers there from support

Absolutely, what I cannot understand is this silence. I asked more and more time to get me back money if problems but never received a reply.
I will keep you informed step by step and now I think to inform cex of this and other post opening or updating one of the support ticket. What you think?

Thank you for your support.

It is not very widely known, but SEPA transfers are reversible. See https://www.boards.ie/b/thread/2057604642 for example.

You can initiate SEPA reversal with your bank if cex.io does not want to cooperate. Please write here about your results for others to make use of your experience. Good luck!

Sure at this point I need to write everywhere my case until cex decide to reply and resolve this problem.
