Very bad stock market for me, customer support is zero points. I couldn't find any care for my problem. They always gave me the same answer.

It's such an amazing wallet, easy-to-use, user friendly and not bombarded with unuseful interface. The trading pattern is easy to understand,easy to use for trading but am unable to complete my phone number verification ( code was not sent)

Never had a better support experience from any company in the financial space let alone crypto. While I am a new customer I was able to try out their email support and live chat both were quick, and provided just the answers I was looking for. I wish all exchanges had live support, it just works!

Did everything work at first until a deposit from Cryptos (Aragon) was not credited. All help pages searched through again, everything was done correctly, so written to support. This then held me out for 1.5 months. One is overloaded. Then the answer:
Aragon had a log update. However, kraken did not notice the update and therefore did not write anything about it in their notes on deposits. The process of "finding these cryptos would allegedly be too time-consuming", "they are very sorry", but the money is gone. Kraken has the coins worth 500 € in her wallet and is now keeping the story to an end. I thought a stock market shouldn't make it that easy and that's a NoGo.

Translated from German. Show Original

Hat auch zunächst alles funktioniert, bis dann eine Einzahlung von Cryptos (Aragon) nicht gutgeschrieben wurde. Nochmal alle Hilfeseiten durchgeforstet, alles richtig gemacht, also an den Support geschrieben. Dieser hat mich dann erstmal 1,5 Monate hingehalten. Man sei überlastet. Dann die Antwort:
Aragon hatte ein Protokollupdate. Das mit dem Update hat kraken aber nicht mitbekommen und deshalb auch bei ihren Hinweisen für Einzahlungen nichts dazu geschrieben. Der Vorgang "diese Cryptos nun zu finden wäre angeblich zu aufwendig", "es tut ihnen sehr leid", aber das Geld ist weg. Kraken hat die Coins im Wert von 500€ in ihrer Wallet und behält die nun einfach, Geschichte zu Ende. Ich denkte so einfach darf es sich eine Börse nicht machen und das ist ein NoGo.
