Coinbase is not good if you need privacy / access to your private key

i hate coinbase
use blockchain.info its much better
the thing why i hate coinbase is that its slow on depositing to gambling sites plus i cant get private key!!
Coinbase likely wont steal your btc. I would not use Coinbase though, they been locking people's accounts and asking private questions that they do not need to know. Just use Electrum or some kind of cold storage.
He is not looking for a wallet, he is looking for an exchange...

1) hadn't have issues with coinbase
2) fees are high
3) I wouldn't trust any exchangers right now to store my coins

I use coinbase, and it works fine.
But, as stated above, do not leave your bitcoins in the exchange. People lose money when exchanges go under. Look at mintpal, and many others...

Advice for noobs: Put your bitcoins in a local wallet as soon as you get them, do not leave them at any exchange no matter how safe they announce to be.
Make sure you secure the wallet too with a tough passphrase!
I've been with Coinbase over a year now with no problems. Good company.

I share this same idea.I can't say that I have had any problems with Coinbase, neither have a heard of anyone with a problem.
also never seen or read someone complaining

No problems from Coinbase here. Bought hundreds(thousands maybe?) worth of Bitcoin transactions.
No problems setting up 2FA, setting up Bank account by confirming the dust transactions, setting up instant buys by adding Credit card, or levelling up to Tier 2 for larger buy amounts.
Coinbase fee is pretty fair, 1% + $0.15 ACH fee for each transaction:

I have used coinbase to buy many thousands of dollars worth of bitcoins (all spent now) and I have had no troubles. Some people have reported that Coinbase had cancelled their orders, but that never happened me.
i think nothing feels wrong with them.
so far sogood

Coinbase was the first wallet I set up, and I still actively use it, and have my account linked. I have no complaints, and the new $USD feature is nice.
Haven't had any issues with Coinbase so far and have had my bank account attached. Heard some horror stories but no personal experiences to relate.

The exchange is still closed to customers outside the US, so I don't know about that. But many people have their banks connected with Coinbase and seem to be pretty happy with it (privacy/security concerns apart).
I hope they would open to other parts of the world. Being from the U.S. myself I see why they have restrictions...Many of those here in the land of the free.
I'd like to find some Actual user feedback from U.S. users about the bank account link security. Thanx for your input.
