In a puzzling turn of events, Coinbase users are voicing their concerns about access issues as glitches disrupt transactions. On April 6, 2025, complaints flooded online forums from individuals unable to conduct simple transactionsโraising questions about the platform's reliability.
Many users have detailed experiences similar to that of one frustrated trader who attempted to buy $50 worth of digital currency. They stated that the platform's advanced features failed to function properly, blocking crucial steps like the ability to preview purchases. Other attempts on the basic platform and through the mobile app led to confusing inconsistencies, with successful transfer emails met with unchanged account balances. "My funds havenโt shown up yet; itโs all ready been a few hours," lamented a user who had been similarly affected.
This isn't an isolated case either. Several users have recounted similar stories where transferred funds took longer than expected to appear in their accountsโan issue that seems to repeat itself over weeks. With the recent discontinuation of CB1 subscriptions by some users, dissatisfaction seems to swell, as many feel caught in a loop of frustration with the platformโs confusing processes. One user expressed exasperation over their inability to reclaim assets after a month of back and forth with customer support, saying, "Coinbase feels like a scam. Itโs a real headache trying to get my coins transferred."
A survey of discussions reveals a predominantly negative sentiment towards Coinbase's reliability. Users are expressing not just frustration, but also a level of distrust as they navigate these unanticipated barriers.
Some voiced hope for improved support but tempered by the reality of lengthy response times. As one disgruntled user noted, "If youโre not CB1, have fun waiting four hours or more for any response!"
"This sets a dangerous precedent for users relying on the platform's efficiency," remarked a concerned subscriber.

As the Coinbase community grapples with these issues, a sense of unease lingers in the air. Will users find solace in timely support, or will these glitches continue to tarnish the platform's reputation? The community remains on alert, hoping for swift resolutions to ongoing frustrations.
