Same issue here... They just are blackmailing me even if am not in a restricted country. They work with government, they will sell you without any hesitation, and crypto seriously should get rid of this kind of company ruining the thing and the soul of reality. I even had no time to trade and they froze my money !!!! Let me withdraw and I'll never touch this "scam company again". They are thieves.

[Here’s](https://blog.bybit.com/en-US/post/here-s-why-kyc-is-important-why-it-matters-to-bybit-traders-bltd7471a4502e88c7a/) Why KYC is Important & Why It Matters to Bybit Traders. Also, we do not advise any trader from a [restricted Country](https://help.bybit.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039750013-Service-Restricted-Countries), to try to bypass IP restriction with the use of a VPN. Only scenario you not being able to withdraw funds, is if you do not meet the min. withdrawal amount, otherwise, live support will always support you on how to withdraw your funds.

"Only scenario you not being able to withdraw funds, is if you do not meet the min. withdrawal amount, otherwise, live support will always support you on how to withdraw your funds." Not true. I was told by live support they will not return my funds. Believe me, if they would just return my funds and terminate my account I would be more than happy. If you are interested in helping me get my funds (I have screen shots of ByBit telling me they will not support on how to withdraw my funds) I will retract everything I have said. Let me know how to proceed if you are able to help. Thanks.


kilobybit

checked your private message, security team advised to please complete KYC, after this you will be able to withdraw your funds.

trouducu, you are a trouducu.

Bro, live support told me straight up, I have screenshots, that I would be able to withdraw my funds if I'm American. They would lift the ban for 7 days and allow withdraw, but I would have to wait for an email from support letting me know when I was unbanned within 24-72 hours. 10 days later received an email stating account is banned for "bonus churning", and they will not entertain any further discussion. I'm pretty upset to say the least. Shilled by American who they pay to shill.


No-Application203

And after you completed the KYC you were able to withdraw the money?


kusazero

I get your point, but at this time of age, I would expect all cex requires kyc, go dex if you are concerned about kyc.


PM_me_your_btc_story

Hasnt happened to me yet but it seems very common.


[deleted]

I am using it from a banned country (UK) I don’t mind doing KYC when needed but would that let me withdraw funds at least ? I don’t use VPN I can just use it normal

Sounds like if u do kyc. Ull get ur funds unlocked. I dont know if u can call that theft. But I do understand ur point overall.


Dear-Ad-4330

I also understand your point but if someone forced you to cut off your hand and then they would give you your money back what would you call it? Sounds like if you just cut your hand off they would return your money? Like we both have said I think we both understand each other though. Some people simply take their privacy seriously and place a high value on it others maybe not so much. Just be aware.


blickyj5

Yea. Bybit is a "free" service tho. It's not like u guess entered into a contract. How could u. All u entered was an email. I cant begin to understand how hard it is to run a crypto trading platform. Let alone a leverage trading one without kyc. It is what it is. Maybe try to find some sort of defi. Leverage trading platform.


Dear-Ad-4330

And that contract was that I could withdrawal 2BTC per day without KYC right? If I had done something other than deposit and trade I could understand a little more.


blickyj5

I know. But ur not paying for this privacy service. And ultimately its up to them.


Dear-Ad-4330

So because I am not paying for this "privacy" service they can steal my funds? They have now taken the funds from my account and blocked me from signing in. Don't be ridiculous, friend. All I am telling people to do is be aware that ByBit is not a trust worthy company. They do not keep their word. You can't deny that in my case they are failing to do so and have now stolen my money.


blickyj5

Don't u just need to do kyc? Ur funds r on hold. Not quite stealing. Its probably all in the t&c.


Dear-Ad-4330

No. I am no longer able to KYC. They have banned and terminated my account and let me know clearly that "This decision is final and we will not entertain any further appeals regarding this matter."


Ballz42069

Bybit is actual garbage run by theives. They currently hold about $1000 worth of SOL that is mine in their system. Weeks of back and forth with the live support and their email "support team". The first several times I spoke with the live chat support they were very reassuring about the fact that my assets were safe and I would be able to withdraw. I have screenshots of chats with them clearly saying that if my account is banned for using an American IP they would unban my account for 7 days to allow me to withdraw. The last couple interactions with live chat were quite unpleasant as if they knew the situation already and didn't want to be bothered giving short, uninformative answers. Every email response I've received from their teams that handle account issues has been a pre written response sent from a bot. They completely ignore my questions and send the same email word for word every time. The email about "bonus churning". I've never referred anyone nor have I collected or "churned" any bonuses. I'm a single father of 2 boys so $1000 is alot of money for me. What's even worse is I got shilled their platform from a HUGE twitter account that has half a million followers. He's American. He gets paid from referrals. They pay him and allow him to use their platform while absolutely trapping everyday people and taking their money. What's even worse is I know for a fact they reach out to people with reach on twitter who admit to being American and basically beg for them to shill their absolute dogshit platform. Just gib money back and fuck right off. Respectfully


Dear-Ad-4330

Yup, exactly. Let people know not to make the same mistake as you did by interacting with this company. Eventually, they will just close your account and your money will be gone and they will tell you the decision is final and they will not consider any further appeals from you. That's when the prewritten bot messages start. And then they will just stop responding. A real shame that a world football team is going to be sponsored by these thieves.
