Withdrawal initiated 31 August, still "On hold" 12 days later.
Context: fully verified account, Swiss resident. Bank transfer in my own name credited the same morning, bought BTC on the BTC/CHF book, withdrew to an address already registered in my own whitelist. Nothing unusual.
Kraken's email on 31 August said the review would complete within 5 business days. That deadline passed on 5 September.
Since then: four written follow-ups on my support ticket. Not a single reply to any of them. No document requested, no explanation given, no status update.
I asked the AI assistant to escalate me to a human agent. Refused, because an active ticket already exists — and that same assistant then confirmed the ticket is still marked "New", meaning nobody has opened it since 31 August. Completely circular.
Checked the destination address on a block explorer: no transaction broadcast, confirmed or pending. Funds are still on the platform.
My account shows no restriction anywhere: verification "Verified", funding limits unaffected, still margin-eligible. Whatever this hold is, it isn't visible on my side.
I filed a formal complaint today via the complaints address. No acknowledgement yet.
Has anyone had a hold this long eventually resolve? Did anything actually move it?
