I will soon withdraw all my funds from Poloniex.

One of my NOTE deposits never arrived and never ever showed up anywhere on Poloniex, eventhough I can clearly see them in the blockchain.

A support ticket that I had submitted weeks ago still hasn't been answered of course.

I'm thinking about spamming the support, since I lost A LOT of money because I can't sell my NOTE and I'm losing money everyday.

I keep reading all these scam accusations against poloneix , yet, people keep using them. Is it that the majority ain't aware that they are selectively scamming?

New accounts are having problems withdrawing, but old accounts are not. So the old accounts continue to use Poloniex.

In addition they have some features that other exchanges don't, such as the ability to lend btc and some alts and the ability to short some alts (because traders can borrow them). Bittrex for example has no lending and no margin trading.

I have not seen any evidence if poloniex is a scam but with the problems that exist in poloniex we should be more careful again and think further to use poloniex because there are still many problems that have not been resolved there yet.

I always encounter many technical issues in polo. I always get logged out after a minute of getting logged in is what always happen to me. I still don't know why most investors go to polo instead of bittrex that I have never encountered any issues ever since.

scammers are everywhere, ensure you, your check and read and understand how the market runs, avoid ex changers with bad track record, meaning you got to explore before investing or using an exchanger.

Doing cryptocurrency stuff since 2010.

Well people ... after waiting for ages (weeks to be exact) i finally got my BTC _and_ my BCH out of polo, sadly, they still did not give me the real BCH for all BTC in limbo.... but o.k.

I only have 0.01btc left there in several coins ... but i'm actually checking my options where to send them to have them on the safe side _if_ they actually break down completely. Sad

Hacky


P.s.: You should watch the initial [ANN] thread from Busoni too: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annexchange-poloniex-crypto-exchange-with-btcnxt-420836

the thing everyone has been saying about polo being shit and failures but people still use them. the only way is for people to stop using them but this could cause issues short term but longterm better.

POLONIEX IS ABSOFUCKINGLUTLY SCAM. SINCE 3 DAYS THEY ARE HOLDING MY HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS AND DONT REPLY TO SUPPORT TICKETS. I BET ALL IN ALL THEY ARE HOLDING MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. THEY HAVE REACHED A POINT THAT THEY HAVE SO BAD REPUTATION THAT THEY CAN NO LONGER SURVIVE IN THIS BUSINESS. THEIR ONLY WAY EXIT IS TO RUN AWAY WITH CUSTOMERS' MONEY. WE NEED TO TAKE LEGAL ACTION AGAINST THEM!

Why would someone use laggy Polo when there are many better excahges? Ever since I got into crypto I keep hearing people complaining about Polo issues. I do have an account on Polo but never use it due to constant problems people experience with them

since i have stopped using polo for bittrex the process seems a lot smoother and easier. i have much more confidence in bittrex than polo and won't use they again.

If bittrex had Margin trading I would already be there. I moved to Kraken only to find out they only margin from USD and that does me no fucking good.

GDAX does margin trading.

And the lizard people run polo... You forgot to mention it. This is some high level conspiracy shit.

Obviously you don't understand that he was being facetious.
You can't blame me for that, this is not even slightly funny. The accent makes it worse.

anybody else with my problem?

Polo is currently at a huge wave of problem and ticket submissions, been like that for few months. If you check their official thread, you'll see a lot of people complaining with similar issue as yours. Basically they withdrawing major coin like eth or btc, but same issue happen where their transaction stuck and needed to be processed manually. Right now, the only thing to do is waiting for the team to clear it.

thanks for the info!

i think that i must wait
