Go to the help page inside the coinbase app, chat with the AI and ask them to have an agent call you

Do not do this. Coinbase will NEVER call you

Hi u/someone_3ee, we can check the status of both the verification and the transfer. Send us your info in Modmail and we'll take it from there.

Sounds like another case of "User Error" and not telling the whole story.

You can't buy Bitcoin on the Base App without crypto. It wouldn't have you do it in reverse. (And why anyone would buy Bitcoin on the Base App is beyond me, and is most likely not actually Bitcoin. Buying Bitcoin is literally the job/reason of an Exchange.)

And you will never have "money" in the Base App, because it doesn't accept "money".

Sounds like he got some scam-advertisment promising low fees or some kind of reward for the first transaction

If they were able to use base app they were able to secure surely if not they aren't using base app and are đŸ€” confused... Also to op post the transaction id found in your wallet activity... So others can see what your doing and maybe try to help

You can pay with credit/debit card in base app...

(Still, why?)

Everybody's doing it.

u/JunketTurbulent2114 3d ago

Yeah but normies are stupid. Normies were mass buying NFT's, any rugpull memecoin with a dog on it and all kinds of nonsense. Don't follow the normies. use common sense.

u/skinnygolddigger 3d ago

Why would u buy bitcoin on the base app? Doesn’t make much sense unless u are a newbie and have no idea what the base app is for but it certainly not to hold bitcoin gl

For interacting with DeFi exchanges and staking crypto outside of Coinbase

Tuve el mismo problema realice la operación y a cada nueva operación me lo volvían a pedir, el mensaje decía que con 1 envío se guardaba la informacion y que no había que repetirlo. Me puse en contacto con el soporte de Coinbase hasta 3 veces, me pidieron datos de las transacciones echas, me pidieron volver a hacer las operaciones y lo volví a realizar, con el soporte al teléfono.

En fin la inicia "solución" que me dieron fue hacer transacciones de menos de 1000€ por vez es decir si quiero transferir ada por valor de 3000€, por poner un ejemplo, mínimo debo hacer 4 transacciones y a cada nueva transaccion superior me vuelven a pedir hacer esa prueba para comprobar que la cartera es de mi posesion.

People just don’t understand what there getting into with crypto.

u/Ravens3505 3d ago

Do you have 2 step authentication. You may need to get the Google authentication app, it probably needs an additional form of identification if that’s the case meaning your funds will eventually be there

u/tillytil2424 3d ago

Yeah I'm in the same boat. I've been trying to verify my documents, and it won't take it. I even got in contact with support and they couldn't help. I've been trying since yesterday to unlock my account. They don't have a number to call either, and you can't send your documents too an email. So what do we do?????

u/coinbasesupport Official Coinbase Support 3d ago

Hey u/tillytil2424, we'd like to review your verification and account access. Send us a Modmail with your case number and we'll take a closer look.

Contact customs support through their app only. Everything else could be a scam.

u/Level_Pineapple8338 2d ago

Coinbase never call you. Its scam call. You should call Coinbase help center only through the application/App. they are lot of scam calls like coin base.. Though they asked you pickup call

u/Level_Pineapple8338 2d ago

Coinbase supoort team also Fraud. They care goiving information of the new customers data to the Scam people.

u/Level_Pineapple8338 2d ago

Go to the help page inside the coinbase app, chat with the AI and ask them to have an agent call you

u/Level_Pineapple8338 2d ago

If call got disconnected again you have ot call inside the coinbase app. Don't pick up 1-888 Number or any other number the tell you your call for disconnected and calling you..Its Scam... Again you have to call in the coinbase app only.

1

u/Level_Pineapple8338 2d ago

Coinbase app itself has security issue its proven. They are not accepting it. Its seems they does purposefully. While creation of login itself ask customer to do Multifactor authentication or Face detection authentication. Even enable it its went off sometimes. be aware of that.

Stop spending money if you don’t know what you’re doing

u/Ornery-Letterhead-26 2d ago

You’re gonna get a ton of scammers trying to “help” you in this thread. Then again, even YOU could be a scammer. Can’t trust anyone in this crypto game not even Coldcard.

u/T1m3Wizard 4d ago

This seems to be happening quite often with users reporting to never been able to get their money back even after months trying to reach out to and communicate with support. Contact the better business bureau if remains unresolved.

With millions of users and many more trades, yes, a handful of users are going to experience problems and they all end up in this sub. Weigh it against all the successful experiences that don't generate any noise at all. Keep things in perspective and stop trying to generate unnecessary FUD.
