IMO XAPO turned into a joke when they started. Then a big joke with the unbelieveble fees. and now even a bigger joke as they strugle to be serious.
DISCLAIMER: not a fan of XAPO wallet.

it probably has been said a million times:
with bitcoin if you don't control the private keys you don't control the funds.
and you need to contact support and see what has happened.
these are just third party new services that are bound to have bugs and problems like this.

I agree with Herbert!!!
online wallet and Exchange addresses are really risy!!!
if you have bitcoin debit card and Exchange accounts, remember: Leave there just the minimum balance you need.
The other funds need to stay where you can control the private jkeys...
What happened to Xapo?
It's been a few years since i've been into the wallet I have there and now they have no record of my wallet or account. What shit!? Fortunately I only had dust in there, but it's still a shitty move on their part.
On top of that, in the process of remobilizing their mobile app they require I take a selfie for "added security".

Xapo was never great, but hey, it was for free.
Now it's even worse because there are more and more regulations that force everybody that works with money to get your identity.
And since it's not for free either ... yeah, not appealing anymore.
As people said, get a local wallet, keep your seed/private keys safe and your life will become easier.
Local wallets may also be a pain in the ass
Indeed, it is assumed that you store your keys encrypted in some safe place (say, printed on paper as well as in your cloud storage), but if you use Windows you can never be sure that your coins won't get stolen by some malicious code. If you use Linux, you may be safe system wise (provided you know what you are doing), but you are still vulnerable to downloading some tainted code (or wallet itself) from the network and thus compromising the security of your coins as well. Cold storage seems to be a viable solution (in respect to security), but it is an even greater pain in the ass on its own. Obviously, I refer to ordinary users here, like your average Joe and Jill

Maybe you just forgot your account info, my old account that I mainly use for faucets is still accesible but I lost the phone that had the authenticator. Why do you even want to go back and use xapo? There are much better bitcoin wallets to choose from other than xapo.It's been a few years since i've been into the wallet I have there and now they have no record of my wallet or account.

Many old wallet are now disappointing me. But Electrum is still the safest.
No matter how big the service, how popular or how long they've been in use, the only way to ensure you always decide what happens to your coins is if you control them. Good advice from OmegaStarScream. Use Electrum or Jaxx. If you REALLY just want something you can always access on the web, use counterwallet.
This is valid for Coinbase and other services as well, simply don't store your funds there anymore (take Electrum instead) and If you don't have a decent amount, I wouldn't recommend giving your identity in exchange for the funds stored there.
