Kraken works very slow for me right now. Anyone else has the same problems?

Here is a quote from kraken blog regarding BCH:
When will BCH balances be credited and trading begin?
While we will try to credit BCH balances and enable trading in the pairs BCH/XBT, BCH/USD, and BCH/EUR as soon as possible after the last common block, we cannot say in advance when this will be. We appreciate your patience as we make the necessary preparations to credit balances and open trading.

I had my BTC on Kraken exchange during the fork. I heard I would have 1:1 BTC/BCH coins. I cannot find them in Kraken as I would like to sell them.
Where can I find my BCH in Kraken?

Just wait a bit. I'm sure you will get your Bcash.
These guys just want to make things right, which could take some time.
So there is absolutely nothing you need to be worried about.
Otherwise just contact their support. Kraken isn't known to be the fastest service/platform, therefore patience is definitely needed.

I have mine on Kraken and in their blog they say it will take time until they get enough confirmations that everything is working fine after the fork and it may take a few hours. We will get our BCC hopefully today.

Edit- read their blog here:

Yes, I know it happened, I was following very closely  Smiley

But I thought I would just see a pair called BTC/BCH in my Kraken account ready to be traded. Asking them to support seems awkward, they knew the fork was coming and they know the amount of BCH (since it's a 1:1 ratio).

The split has happened already. Im looking at these sites that people are posting in here to follow the split:
