Wire Transfer Puns

I’ve initiated a $10.5k wire transfer on January 5th, 2021 from my US bank account to my crypto.com account.

I referenced the unique transaction number provided by Crypto.com via email.

Two weeks later, my Crypto.com account is still not credited.

I talked to their support team which was quite responsive when I first reported the issue but since last Saturday no more answers.

I contacted them through the mobile app, the Crypto.com homepage and on Twitter. No answers.

Needless to say that at this point, I’m not interested in using their app anymore. I just want my money back.

despite coinbase receipt email/policy having a multiday(~5days) pending period before coins can be sent off to different addresses. What loop hole have the sim swAppers used?? By doing this to me and many others ive seen post they can take accounts negative balance b/c banks stop the money transfer. No answer yet? Just people saying use better security tough luck. I accept the money is gone. I just wanna learn what this loophole used is.

Hi there,

Does anyone know an exchange that allows me to send a domestic wire transfer within the US? Coinbase doesn't have any banking options if you are from Canada, and Kraken makes it international. I live in Canada, but trying to move money into my US account prior to my visit there.

Thanks

Hi, UK ape here. Just attempted a wire transfer from Natwest to Interactive Brokers to buy more gme on Tuesday and NatWest blocked the transfer, citing suspected fraud. They said it was for my own protection lmao. Has anyone else had a similar problem?

As the title states, I was paid for my work via wire to my Cash App routing + account number. I thought it would be an ACH transfer (which Cash App supports), but they sent a wire.

Payer is saying the money has left their account and they can't do anything about it.

The routing number is Sutton Bank (partnered with Cash App for Direct Deposits). Sutton Bank is saying they can't do anything since I'm not a customer with them.

My question is - where is the money? If a wire is sent to Sutton Bank with my account number, but I'm not an account holder, will that wire eventually be reversed? Seems illegal to accept a payment on behalf of nobody and keep it.

Is this a US problem? I want to start using this app but can't unless they make transferring money easier for US users.

An unauthorized wire transfer for $10,000 was made out of my account. I immediately reported it to USAA and was told the wire fraud (?) dept would get back to me I. 2 business days. After a week I called back and they had not even looked into my case. The customer service agent was extremely nice and called the wire fraud dept to request they expedite the review. I just want my money back so I can start banking with someone else because USAA has really gone downhill. Any advise on how I can get these assclowns to move faster? Do I have to call them out on social media? I can’t stay on the phone with them for an hour everyday of the week and they don’t really seem to care about me being out of $10,000!

I'm selling something and a potential buyer has contacted me that wants to pay via wire transfer. Everything that I've read about wire transfer scams talks about not sending any funds, but I haven't read anything about scams that involve the buyer sending funds via wire transfer.

• Can a wire transfer be reversed?
• What's the risk with giving out my routing & account numbers?

It seems like all of the risk is on their side by paying me before they receive anything. Basically I want a safe transaction and am trying to figure out if this is somehow a scam. What am I overlooking?

I'm just talking domestic wire transfers.

Is that too much to expect?

It's been 3 months, 2 wire inquiries, and one bank visit. The bank is WF and it's an international wire. They keep on telling me that the wire cleared their end so I must ask the recipient bank. When I try to call the recipient bank, they have no reference to this wire by the bank. I am completely lost, how is this even possible for money to be lost and not be anywhere! What are my options? I am really losing it here

I am conducting a real estate transaction from my US bank account to Ireland, and have so far sent two deposits via wire transfer, and now need to send the down payment. I did the two deposits through my bank, and it was easy (small fee, not a percentage, and received in about 24 hours). But each time it resulted in a small shortfall (a few hundred Euro) because the exchange rate was worse than the figures I found online. I told my bank to send the funds USD to USD, so I don't know at what point the exchange rate was assigned.

But the down payment is a much bigger payment, and the difference could now be a few thousand euro. How can I get the best exchange rate possible for an international wire transfer? I looked at Wise, and they are charging a fee of nearly 1000 euro, but that could be worth it if the exchange rate is better than whatever I am getting, but it is hard to figure that out. I am thinking to try to get my bank to send it USD to EURO so they do the exchange rate. The exchange rate may just be similar between services. Thanks for reading.

Hi fellow smooth brains,

Just sent my remaining dollars from Wise to IBKR,for the purpose of purchasing GME and drsing. Just wanted to know if anyone else here has done this and how long it takes. IBKR have been notified of my transfer and this appears in my transfers page as still pending.

Wise said it could take up to 22hours and It’s just passed that deadline. Has Anyone had to wait longer? At what point should I contact someone from IBKR to find out what’s going on?

Any info would be great 👍

Cheers, thanks, bye

Edit: the status of my transfer in Wise has changed to successful. Saying “It may take up to 2 working days to credit my IBKR account”. I’ll be patient and let you know.

Update: My wire transfer got rejected and refunded to my wise account. Not entirely sure why but I’ve decided to send my funds to my bank and wire in from there. Cheers for reaching out.

Does anyone know the most inexpensive way to make wire transfers to purchase bullion online? From canada to the USA.
I am just starting out stacking but i noticed many sites offer a lower price if the payment is made by wire transfer.

I asked my bank but it seemed like the cost of the wire transfer was too high to off-set the price difference from just using a credit card.

Are their cheaper options out there that anyone has found ?

I was trying to connect my USAA bank account to Crypto.com to avoid paying the 2.99% fee everytime, but I don’t seem able to put in the information and have it appear. I don’t know how many other people bank with USAA, but I was curious if the two are compatible.

Hello. I commonly use mvb wire transfers to add usd to my Kraken account and never had any problems. I usually have my money in my account within the hour. This time my money has been on hold for the past two days. This has never happened before. My support ticket is #7203584, thanks you.

Hello,

I'm reasonably new to Crypto. I like CoinBase but am struggling with understanding how best to make my next move on the shortest timeline and with the lowest fees.

I want to make a $100,000 USD purchase of a coin, then send that amount in that coin to another wallet. It looks like purchasing out my bank at the 35K/day limit will incur massive CoinBase fees, and there's a 9-day delay per purchase for transferring to another wallet.

I was looking into doing a wire transfer for the full 100K amount, but had a few questions, the answers to which I could not find. Any help is MUCH appreciated.

1. Can I use a Wire Transfer directly for the purchase? (i.e., queue up the 100K BUY in CoinBase, and select Wire Transfer as the purchase method)
2. Will the total fee of the transfer really only be the advertised $10? Or, is that a $10 for the wire, then the ordinary fee of CoinBase for the purchase will be applied on top of that (which I estimate to be nearly $2000)
3. Is there any chance that the coin that is purchased will be available to transfer to another wallet any sooner if done via a Wire Transfer?

The last thing I'll ask is if there's just a better way to do this altogether. I have only made $1500 in purchases on CoinBase, and am just getting started. I'm not married to CoinBase, and want to do this next large purchase in the fastest and least fee-incurring method possible.

So much thanks for any information. Forward apologies for all the things I currently don't understand and the follow-up questions I am likely to have. :) Thank you`

Money was deducted from my account. So far, nothing has showed to my account. Contacted support but no reply yet.

Link I was emailed by their “CEO” after making an inquiry on a Chinese sourcing website (Global Sources).

They claim to offer some pretty cheap miners. Via email, they told me an S17 Pro (53TH) would be $1580. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with them or if I should stay away? I’m hesitant to send them any money via crypto or wire transfer as it would be nearly impossible to recoup if they scam me.

Hello, just wondering whether somebody also made an international tuition payment as I did. I transferred my tuition the Bank of New York Mellon- Pittsburgh.

Address: Bank of New York Mellon Client Service Center 500 Ross Street Pittsburgh, PA 15262 0001 USA

Account number: 1979003

Swift number: IRVTUS3N

It’s been 4 weeks and my SIO still indicated my tuition has not been paid yet. Anyone ever encountered similar issues ? Or is this account accurate? Thank you so much.

So it's been 4 days since I wired the money and it still has not shown up on my defi wallet. All the information is correct and I have sent copies the wire receipt to support.

Playing the waiting game. Not sure why the minimum deposit required is $5,000 for wires. Why not let us test it out first at a much lower amount?

So called "faster" transfer is complete bullshit. Would have been faster via ACH. Not sure why kinda sc@m / excuse they gonna use about the missing wires. But the money went somewhere and it went to the account number they provided. This shit ain't rocket science. Easily traceable. So why they dragging their feet on this.

When adding my bank as a new payment source in Gemini, I'm prompted to 'verify my bank' by sending them a wire transfer. Sending a wire transfer at my bank costs me $30. Any other exchange that I've used does not require this bs. I contacted them via email and the rep wasted my time telling me that I can instead verify my bank by sending them a recent bank statement. I sent it, then 3 days later they basically said 'Just kidding.. you actually still have to send a wire transfer even though all of our competitors don't pull this shit'. Why would anyone pay $30 to sign up for an exchange...?

Anyone else get hit with this?

I'm based in India and I hold a Charles Schwab equity awards account created by the company I work for. In the case of selling the Stocks and transferring that amount to my local bank account, what is the conversion rate(and markup rate if any) offered by Schwab?

I am trying to understand the total charges that I'd have to pay for transferring the money to my local account. Any pointers would be helpful!

Hello, so I wire transferred money from my Wells Fargo account to my Crypto.com account, and well it’s been 4 days and I haven’t received my funds. Can anyone help me with this?

" The external transfer system is intended only for sending funds between deposit accounts owned at another bank. Gemini Trust Company LLC is not a bank "

That's what my bank sent after I contacted them following a failed transfer. Anyone have any suggestions as to where to go from here?

Hoping to get some guidance on this based on other's experience. I recently took on a side gig with a US client who will pay me in USD via wire transfer.

I'm with TD and have a Canadian-based USD account, but it doesn't have a routing number so they charge a $17.50 to receive a USD wire transfer. I'm fine with that if I'm accepting payments one off, but I expect to receive payments on a monthly or biweekly basis, perhaps even more if things go well.

I've also opened an account with TransferWise (wise.com) and the rates are far better (~$7.50 to accept the USD transfer), but I'm a bit nervous about using it, and temporarily holding cash there.

What have other people here used to accept USD wire transfers cheaply (and safely)?

Is TransferWise the best option here? Would love to hear about people's experience with it, and any issues they've encountered with them.

Grateful for any insights and suggestions!

My wire for $15K cleared my bank yesterday and still has not posted on crypto.com. Can’t get customer service to respond. Should I be worried? --Update - It was an error on BOA's part...I owe Crypto.com an apology.
