KUCOIN 

Avoid This Scam Exchange! Steer clear of KuCoin—it's a total ripoff! On Oct 10, 2025, their SOL/USDT tanked to 130 USD (vs. 174 on Binance, 172 on Coinbase), wiping out my $8K SOL-BOT position despite a safe 170-260 range. Identical bot on Binance? Thrived, no issues. KuCoin ghosted me for weeks, then denied it with BS "index rules" excuses. No license under EU MiCA, pure manipulation to grab stop-losses. Filed with CNB, ESMA, CFTC—hope they nail these crooks. Lost trust forever; low fees aren't worth the theft. Who's next?

They deleted a crypto with no notice which meant I lost my tokens.
Apparently according to their "policy" it is ok to take peoples belonging away.
Very dodgy. Don't touch it

KuCoin charged me a second 80 USDT recovery fee for the same SFUND legacy contract deposit, even though they had already recovered it once before.

The exchange never warned me that this was still the old (unsupported) SFUND contract, there was no alert on the deposit page or in the app.

The first time, support told me I sent it to the wrong USDT network, not that the contract itself was outdated.

Now they refuse to return my funds without charging another full 80 USDT, which feels completely unfair and misleading.

I’ve been a long-time KuCoin user, but after this experience, I’m seriously reconsidering using this platform again.

I had a very bad experience using KuCoin’s P2P platform. A buyer sent money to my bank account, and immediately after that, my account was frozen. Unfortunately, I had already released the USDT before realizing that the buyer had used scam or illegal funds.

I contacted KuCoin support right away and asked them to freeze the related order amount and investigate the buyer’s KuCoin and bank accounts. At first, they froze the buyer’s KuCoin account, but later they unfroze it without resolving the issue.

Through my own investigation, I discovered that the scammer had used a money mule — registering a KuCoin account with their own email but using someone else’s ID card to verify the account. The mule then sent the payment from their bank account. Despite all the evidence and documents I provided, KuCoin still allowed the withdrawal of funds from their platform without verifying facial recognition or checking login IP addresses.

When I asked KuCoin to reverse the transaction or return my USDT, their response was simply that the withdrawal had already been permitted. This clearly shows a serious lack of security, compliance, and responsibility in their system.

In my opinion, KuCoin’s P2P platform is unsafe and poorly monitored, making it easy for scammers to exploit innocent users. I strongly believe authorities should investigate their operations. I am willing to provide all documentation and evidence I have to the media or relevant authorities.

I have lost 300 euro by fraud call however they dedicated the cost without any formalities and neither I'm this app user nor customer hence I'm telling you by this review "karma will never let you go off" this means how much you took from others instead of this you must pay more than triple or octuple and you know what karma says "what goes round what comes around"

When trading futures on kucoin you go to close your trade sometimes it won't close for like a minute, then when you try start a trade it doesn't do the proper trade!! And then various other stuff but in short just go to mexc or any other lol

This is a very high manipulative firm. I have been unable to withdraw ever since I invested with them. I contacted their support and no response. It's glaring to me that they don't pay. I choose PAIVA, and I have been paid with ease.

They claim to not require any sort of ID or address verification but I had to do all of that to withdraw my funds. They then forced me to deposit money into my account to verify my bank account with very high fees and when I tried to deposit money into my account they only gave me the IBAN and not the account name. When I asked for this simple piece of information from customer service not only did they make me wait 2-5 mins between every response but their English skills were so bad they did not understand my issue and I did not understand half of their responses so I gave up in the end and had to move all my crypto to a different service and withdraw it there. While they flaunt their small service fees as soon as you try to move money out of your account they charge astronomic fees. Now they will not even let me close my account. In conclusion all I got out of their service was a huge headache and an opportunity to waste both my time and money. Would not recommend.

Futures : fees maker -0.008% = on me paye ! Copy trading sans effort.

KuCoin is very biased with their leverage spot trading especially in the recent pullback of Near3S leverage. I bought Near3S /USDT at about 0.00007 when Near/USDT was about 3.01, Near/USDT has pulled back to 2.44 (-19%), Near3S/USDT is currently (as of October 10th-11th, 2025) at about 0.00005999 (+1.6%). KuCoin should be investigated by Crypto regulators for manipulation of trade to deny their users of appropriate and due earnings.

I used to believe kucoin was a good platform. But in the moment where i most needed it just let me down. I were holding xrp3s and sol3s for almost a month. When the time came to sell and i had good proffit it just got frozen and did not allow me to get out… hours after the price was already came back to break even it worked perfectly. Sad to say i just wanted to take my money out… dissapointed.

My KuCoin P2P order (ID: 68d9fd8733a26a0001e7c90f) was released even though I never received the payment.

I provided a full bank video and statement as proof, but KuCoin ignored my evidence and marked the buyer’s fake receipt as valid.

I hope they review my case and fix this serious issue.

I have adjusted my review after finally managing to get into my account. I cant say I have found the service easy to use but that could well be because of my lack of knowledge trading crypto.

I did find it incredibly difficult to get back into my account after problems with my password. Ultimately one of their customer service team did enough to help me work it out.

Plus KuCoin did reply here to my previous negative review which shows they are interested in making sure customers are happy.

I joined the Arabic community and the admins there have friends w some and they obey them and the admin banned me cuz I was just joking w my friend and some member didn't like it was normal joke and the admin is @LARAMLE
@mnr150
I hope y'all fix Ur f***king community

Steer away from this platform. They are full of fake promises. So manipulative and dubious. I have been stuck with my funds for months and never get paid. It was a very sad experience for me. Anyway, I found peace with PAIVA, my finances has really changed positively with them.

I successfully passed KuCoin’s 33-minute video verification after they themselves requested it, replacing their first demand for deposit history. This means they confirmed my identity and acknowledged I am the real owner. However, despite this, KuCoin still refuses to return my funds.

This is a violation of their own rules, unfair treatment, and shows serious disrespect to customers. KuCoin is intentionally delaying and hiding behind excuses. I warn other users: your funds are not safe here.

Kucoin interface is horrible to use. It´s very unintuitive and complicate. I recommend to find some another more user friendly.

Stay away from this dubious and manipulative firm, they have nothing to offer and their only motive is to take away your hard earned money without any returns. I found peace and financial stability with PAIVA and I have been paid without interruptions.

Hello, I want to share my case so that a KuCoin moderator or agent can review it:

Withdrawal TxID: 0x092f9c8b83c5…d33d

The circumstances: I made a withdrawal from Binance to my KuCoin account using the OPBNB network by mistake. The transaction shows as completed, but the funds never arrived at KuCoin.
