The only problem I faced on Poloniex, is the inability to place an order at peak times. In general, I do not have problems.

I have been using poloniex for more than 1 year now, till now I didn't face any problem with this exchange.I have many bitcoins in poloniex exchange where I am trading happily without the problem and when it comes to withdrawal and deposit they will pay on time without any delay, only if they have any issues with their software.

I am also very pleased with this exchange, there are simply situations where you can see that the servers are clearly overloaded.

The real scam is when the exchange crashes, yet there is clearly activity in the background (via cryptowat.ch or other API plugs)  Yet you can't trade on their GUI.

This happened with XMR and most recently with STR.  I'm done with them.  My coins are off their site.  They'll Gox soon.

today is 9/5/2017. Poloniex continue scam verision 2. All coin down, XRP 12.300 ---> 7.700, BTS 3.379 ----> 2.200, STR 2.300 ---> 1.600.v.v.and No one can trade. Traders can only look and lose. Reason of Poloniex is DDOS attacked.Again that reason and trader lost money again because Poloniex's fault. We are going bankrupt gradually by Poloniex

How's this for strange.

I somehow have an open margin long position in XRP @ .00021461? The price never came near that, nor spiked to that price point, yet here I am with this open position I did not order, that is obviously at a huge loss because the price only ever made it around .00014.

So tell me: How exactly would an open position fulfill at a price that never even spiked to that price point? I'm sitting looking at a loss and lending fees that just keep adding up for an order I didn't make, and obviously would never make, why the hell would I buy something that's 1.5x the recent ATH? I wouldn't, but yet here I am slowly losing money over it, if I close it out Ill lose hundreds of dollars. I contacted support, but wont cross my fingers that they respond.

Polo is turning into Cryptsy.

Patterson Law Firm in FL has been put on retainer and are investigating claims against Poloniex for fraud. You can contact Alexander Passo @ [email protected] if you've been dealing with any issues. Poloniex's terms of service are not enforceable in court, regardless of how much they want you to think they are.

That's not evidence it's speculation. What else are you hiding under that tinfoil hat?

14 of the top 15 Miners at Nanopool have been mining to Poloniex. That's a fact.
PASC deposits and withdrawals had been deactivated since the last peak trading hours for about two days, also a fact.
PASC goes down in value and now we can access them again(partly at least).Coincidence? I don't think so. I got only 1/3 of my coins showing up right now.
Waiting days for a deposit to show up on the biggest exchange is not normal.Especially when the profits are best in a couple of weeks.I do not have problems with it on Cryptopia for instance and it is a way smaller exchange.
It is easy for them to say they have "difficulties" or "maintenance" going on. If you believe that you are just naive.
FRAUD plain and simple !

Yes. in 7/5/2017. When STR (Stellar lumen) up to 4900sts/1 STR. Polo continue erro, down sever in 3 minutes. No one can login and trade. After 3 minutes, when all trader login, STR down = 2000sts/1 STR. Why?
A lot of people went bankrupt, special is Margin trader. Poloniex said: all altcoin safe, but all trader is loser. You can check chart trade of polo in 22h 7/5/2017 (GMT: UTC). It is 1 vertical line. There is no apology from poloiex. They are silent when trader lose money because their fault.
Poloniex is scamer, they are trap.

One thing id say about poloniex is: their customer support is ridiculously slow, and that doesnt fill me with confidence at all.

For the largest exchange in the world, their KYC verification takes forever..and in that time they could be doing anything with my coins

I have a few other investors who also have very low withdrawal limits. Theyre unable to take their money out that easily and its taking forever to get verified

So, that shouldnt fill someone with confidence at all...poloniex needs much better customer support, quicker KYC verification times and better transparency of who they are, who is in their team, where their offices are etc...right now we dont know enough about poloniex and its the biggest weakness in the whole crypto world

I am happy with Poloniex exchanges the way they treat their members, their support system is highly professional and they solve the issues in the specific time limit. Overall, when compared to other exchanges more reputable coins will be listed in Poloniex.

Beware of Poloniex,

They use bots to pump and dump coins and ponzi schemes,  at the moment the exchange is pumping DASH which is a ponzi scheme,  they create these big pumps, attract investors who short them, them keep them stuck for weeks.  If you dont know Poloniex is designed to suck in investors, use bots to create fake volume.

For traders this is not something new or that they haven't before, it's a known thing and don't know if you have seen there is a thread here where a good bot is being sold for a long time, that's the C.A.T and saying the truth it covers many popular exchanges including the poloniex too. Trading can be very dangerous especially for the newbie ones as there are lots of bots in poloniex especially and it's good to catch the 0.15% instead of 0.25% because there are lots of orders within 1 second.

To each his own, but my gut tells me to stay away, far away. Read the 'terms of service' and you'll see what I am talking about.

And please don't respond that you read it, and that it is a standard 'terms of service', because if not.

They even Trade with your coins...
That's quite a sensational claim. Do you have even a shred of evidence to support this?

Be creative... This is what happened: Yesterday PASC has risen 80%, my mined coins don't show up at the exchange. Even though they showed up all the time till this day. Right NOW you can't deposit or withdraw your PASC! Today is the second day.
Well why is PASC disabled right now on the largest exchange ?  Do you think they are that incompetent ? They want to make extra money, so they use insignificant altcoins to make a little extra profit! Pretty f*cking simple.

Now a couple days go by PASC drops, Polo buys back cheaply and gives back to the depositors...

What do you think happened at MtGox  ? Do you think they really got hacked ? Or did they "hack" themselves ? These exchanges are corrupt to the core. Do NOT trust them.

Just look at all those miners still mining to Poloniex! Just the Top15 : https://pasc.nanopool.org/
14 of the Top 15 still mine to Poloniex...
These alone produce worth 1000s of USD of PASC daily and deposits do not work at Poloniex right now.They do not show up! Meaning the PASC is not at the miners disposal. So Polo does as it pleases with those coins,even trading...
Is it to far fetched? You decide.

I read the their "terms of services" today, and, although I have an account, I am leaning towards not doing any business with them. Basically, they can take your account from you anytime they feel like it at their discretions, freeze your funds, etc... I have read other user terms, and none were anything "so against the user" like Poloniex.  I agree with the OP. stay away if you can.

They even Trade with your coins and then block you from withdrawing them.Deposits do not show up when I needed it.
Happened to me with my PASC coins. They made a huge profit with my coins, now I can't access them.

That's Poloniex for you.

Ofcourse because it's just a little Altcoin with only 0.8% Volume of the exchange noone will say anything.
This is MtGox style fraud and it should be called out.

BTC or BUST

Every exchange is scam by oneway or another , they allow you to deposit unlimited Bitcoin (for non-verified account with ID)
and when its come to withdrawal they limited it to 2btc per day and giving lame excuse of KYC rules.
KYC policy should be applied on both deposit and withdrawal.  
Yeah and if you look at the scam sections,you'll see a lot of accusations on this exchanges,each one of them has one and they are not small amount but huge one,that's why it's not a good idea to put huge amount of bitcoin in any exchange,

TUXexchange, being legally incorporated in Canada, does not require identification of any kind nor does it limit your deposits or withdrawals in any way..
Because of Canadian law, dealing with cryptocurrency only and no fiat, they do not deal with "money", so no ID no limits, no exceptions, 100% legal..
They also let you register and trade from TOR to stay completely anonymous if you want to..
