Hello,

I have looked online and tried searching through the forums, but I have yet to find a definitive answer regarding the limits Coinbase puts on new accounts.

I made an account last week, and had an initial purchasing limit of $100. I understand they need to "build trust with customers," so I don't have a problem with this, per se, but I don't know by how much or even WHEN my limits will be raised. $100 is simply too low of a limit if it were to continue for weeks (or months).

Can anyone tell me through their own experiences how their limits changed over time?

Thanks in advance,

Also, as of now, I have only linked my bank account with my Coinbase account. I understand that it is possible to raise limits by also registering one's credit card as well. Does anyone know by how much this affects one's limits?

When I used Coinbase I only managed to get it to $250 that was by completing all the verification stuff.. no maybe it may go from 100 - 250? I know you have to deposit a certain amount in a week for it to also go up.. kind of a different process then most.

as far as i know, to raising the limits in one market, you need to complete verification on every level so you can raise your capital for deposit or withdrawal. but i wonder what you expected from coinbase? because i think its better to do with another market exchanges like poloniex, bittrex, kraken and else. but its up to you sir.

Thanks for the replies, guys. I appreciate it.

But I gotta admit, I am a bit frustrated at this point; not just with Coinbase, but with Bitcoin exchanges in general.

I looked up Kraken and Bitstamp (two exchanges that were recommended in the previous post), and most of the reviews are negative; many people telling stories about how they've been ripped off. Of course, these people could just simply be lying themselves. I have no idea, and I do not know whom to trust.

I have been reading various books, blogs, websites, message boards, etc... in an attempt to learn as much about Bitcoin as I can. And I have put in a lot of time and energy in just simply trying to BUY some, and have not been successful (though, the order I placed on Coinbase should go through in a couple of days, but at $100 worth, it's almost meaningless). So, I have to imagine that if the 'average joe' were to want to also dive into the Bitcoin world, that there is almost no way he would end up buying/using it, and would quickly give up. How can this currency possibly be expected to take off when it is so damn hard to get?

Coinbase is having serious issues right now. I would advise using a different site like Kraken or Bitstamp.
You can not get any response from their support team for weeks/ months at a time, the forums are filled with page after page of people having issues with no response from support.
Maybe in a few months things will improve but unless they hire more support that site is doomed.
I have a ton of money sitting in an account I can't access and no response for weeks.
People complain about some of the exchanges having bad support but Coinbase is a huge company and has so many issues right now its unbelievable.

LOL really $100? What a joke, Coinbase is garbage.

I remember using them a long time ago and running into a similar problem, although I don't think my limit was THAT low. I think I fixed it by adding a bank account and adding more info on my coinbase account, although it looks like you already added a bank account.

If I were you I would just abandon coinbase tbh
