Coinbase has been effing me around for the last 4 months with getting my account verified to receive a Celsius Bankrupty payment. Useless support, save yourself the hastle, and use a different wallet and exchange. ----- ### "Safe, efficient, easy." — 5.0/5 > **Vincenzo Bernardino** | *18 November 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The friendly user experience helped me understand better crypto when I first got into it years ago. > > **Cons**: I don't have any particular complain, but the portfolio dashboard might benefit from a revamp that shows more information in less taps. > > It was the first Crypto Platform I ever used, I got there via Earn.com, an interesting project later bought by Coinbase. Through their educational content with incentives I familiarized myself with ICOs, Airdrops and trading. ----- ### "Only way to go in the US" — 5.0/5 > **ANDREW** | *05 April 2025* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Simplicity, and that when other platforms shut down they stayed available > > **Cons**: Fees used to be a little high but they got betterq > > Fantastic, I use them for all crypto purchases ----- ### "Base Wallet is Potentially Broken, Assets Are Stuck Behind an Update Wall/ Developer Preview of the App?" — 1.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *13 March 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: - Old Coinbase wallet was reliable, fast, and simple. - Coinbase exchange is easy to use, fast and good. - Customer phone support is instant and the staff on the phone are amazing. > > **Cons**: - New Base app has the potential to TRAP your assets behind an Update bug. - Engineering team takes long to engage with and solve technical issues. > > So I have used the Coinbase wallet for years with no complaints and downloaded the new Base wallet/app a few days ago. I then sent some crypto assets to my new Base wallet. It received the assets no problem. I even sent some more just so that I had enough Ethereum for "gas fees" and so on. All the assets arrived without issue. So then I tried to send the assets (USDT) from the new Base wallet to my Coinbase exchange wallet/address, but it failed. It says that I need to upgrade to the Ethereum network (check screenshots below). When I select upgrade, it states "Upgrade failed. Please try again". I have re-tried this whole process multiple times on multiple devices. I have even tried sending it to another wallet on a different platform/provider, but still no luck. When I try to log in to this same Base wallet using the PC/Browser option, it states that "This Wallet is no longer supported." it was a "Developer preview"\!? (screenshot below) I have spent hours working with Coinbase support to try and figure it out. In all fairness, the on-the-phone support team has been excellent and really supportive. However, the 7-day period during which the engineering team was supposed to have solved this has now expired, and I get the impression that this might not get solved for weeks, if not months. I understand that crypto is volatile and all of that, but what we are talking about here is basic app functionality. I didn't lose my logins, I didnt make a bad choice in which crypto to trade in, I chose a stable coin, and I chose one of the biggest and oldest crypto wallets/companies on the market. How are we supposed to hold any faith for this system as a whole if, after years of ordinary operation, one update brings the whole thing crashing down? I hope that Base/Coinbase can resolve this. But I think people need to know that they run the risk of having their assets stuck within a buggy app. ----- Page: 1 / 7\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/1016281/coinbase-wallet?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/1016281/coinbase-wallet) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | ----- ## Structured Data
