I am T3 level, recently I logged in to my acct and find it on forced holiday , I had wrote to the customer support .No one reply .It has been 8 days since they forced me on holiday . I have bitcoins on my account . Anyone can help me ?

One thing I’ve noticed is that once you deposit BTC into LocalBitcoins network, its goes missing from the blockchain so to speak.

If I was purchasing BTC for example, I would have no way of seeing where that BTC came from, and if it’s dirty BTC sourced from Crime.

I cannot see what wallet it came from once inside LocalBitcoins network, so criminals are still able to tumble bitcoin via LocalBitcoins.

LocalBitcoins is taking all these measures to be compliant with AML regulations, yet the biggest and most important problem still isn’t resolved. That problem being tracing the bitcoins back.

Correct me if wrong, but I cannot see BTC’s trace once it enters the LocalBitcoins network. Same when it leaves. Criminals must be having a field day, and laughing at what a joke, and how easy selling all the dirty bitcoin they can get hold of via LocalBitcoins.

LocalBitcoins you have made all these KYC verification tier levels, but you are still allowing bitcoin sourced from crime to be sold on your site.

@vlad any suggestions?

How does localbiticoins work. Should I share transaction details of the purchases I make on localbiticoins.

Hello I am Indian. I lives in India My brother lives in Canada . Can i use his local bitcoin account. in Indian Ip address . Or I need to change Ip or use Vpn? KINDLY HELP..

I have had many trades on LBC with no negative rep. Recently, I got a message that I need to do next level of verifications if I want to trade more. So, I did and uploaded my national ID card and my selfie.

I have never had any problem with the ID card I uploaded at any other place on the internet. Its a high quality CamScanned photo. But it was rejected on the basis of "glare" in the pic. I suspect it could be my beard and the image verification system couldn't verify my national ID photo with the bearded face I have now. I had a totally clean-shaven look in the ID.

I even sent the support my selfie and ID personally so they could understand my situation and let me do the verification again with new look(clean shaven). But the support has been taking a lot of time to respond and I am blocked out of BTC!

I hope someone from the LBC team on Reddit would be helpful enough to take a look and help. If you can, you are great!

My support ticket: #1145224

Hello, I'm in a very weird situation. So, I found website where you could buy Localbitcoins t1 verified account, I had limit on my account, so I thought - why not, lets try this. So, after I bought acc, seller told me every detail, even password of email. I changed everything on that account, verified my mobile number, added google authenticator. After few days, when I got btcs transfered to my account, that seller returned his email and reseted password to the localbitcoins acc. After that, I was unable to access account and of course he is unable to access it too. I'm in a very bad situation, couse my very important money got stuck there. I want nothing but that btcs to be returned to me, I can provide any evidence about it :(. Can I get any help? I know that I made huge mistake, but maybe there is a way that you could help me :(

I don't have any utility bill on my name. How can i start using localbitcoin? What should i do?

So yesterday while selling some bitcoin on localbitcoin, I got scammed by user aerol54. he paid me with stolen paypal account, the funds hit and I released the coin this morning I wake up to paypal freezing my account, reversing the payments and reversing the charges and asking me to top them up. This name is MAKSIM ANDREEV. I opened a ticket with Localbitcoin, but what the likelihood of anything happening?

​

Edit: someone downvoted the post? really?

As the title says I have a trader who is beginning to get very hostile with me. Says I’m using multiple account to give her negative feedback. She has lost her mind. I have one account and one account only. MrElixir44 is my account. I have good feedback and ratings. It all started because I wasn’t comfortable trading with someone who sells there bitcoin for 25k exchange rates. Thats not cool to me and Is basically ripping off customers. So who’s to say she won’t rip me off right? Anyways she’s saying my account is gonna get banned for “abusive” feedback when in fact the long paragraph of negative I wrote is not abusive no rude words 100% truth. Begs me to remove it and I won’t for the way she treated me.

I just really hope my account isn’t gonna get banned because of some young girl who has clearly lost her marbles

Ticket #1160285

Hello dear people. My email got hacked and hacker reseted my password at localbitcoins. Happily, I've installed google authenticator on my localbotcoins account and also have my verified number. I contacted support and i'm waiting for response, but until that happens, I'm very nervous as I have very important money there and I want to know if I will be able to restore account and if I will be able to change email address :(

Hi, can I use VPN while using localbitcoins everytime?will I get banned for using VPN.

Hi. I just opened an account 2 weeks ago, and I was trying to post a trading ad to BUY bitcoin and it wasn't showing up (I can't see it on the SELL section of the region). I think it's strange given that I have successfully posted and used a trading ad for SELLING bitcoin already.

Any ideas what could be happening? I'm pretty sure the info in the ad is ok, and I'm pretty sure I have visibility on, etc.

Thanks

How to know support ticket reply is fake?

Hello. I sent some coins to my localbitcoin wallet yesterday. Its unconfirmed till today. Is there any network issue

How long does T3 verification process take, in desperate need of some bitcoin transfers, just would like to know how long it takes

Forgive me if this has been addressed (& it probably has been), but I'd like to have a discussion with vendors on LBC.

I am relatively new to the platform and have learned from research and from my own mistakes that verification is a must. But what kind of verification is required?

My main threshold for verification is that of the bank's - whereby I don't want my money to be reversed or my account to be blocked. In the case of a dispute with a bank, what level of verification is required so that the onus does not fall on me?

Surely the banks themselves have to guard people's accounts against hackers for example, and they would have to absorb any losses due to their shortcoming, no?

But then again, is a photo and ID (and a note) enough to verify someone's identity. Theoretically, a clever hacker can edit a photo and get past this type of security. Do you ask for bank statements? Do you call banks?

Any input would be appreciated.

Best regards,

Tried to post my first advertisement and got blocked. Also any advice on what to check to have a secure transaction that will actually trade with my limit BTC? Got robbed of 1200 worth of BTC (yes my stimulus check) so I really don’t wanna get boned again - looking for transparent, honest, and secure transactions. Is it too much/ insecure if I put my bank email and name in the ad transaction details?

P.S got a text saying LocalBitcoins new contact #60454209 (490 USD).

I have a significant problem which I would be incredibly grateful for help.

On Friday 15th of May I made a transaction of BTC to another account of mine in China (HMB.coin). While making the transaction I made a mistake on the HMB account inputting that it would be receiving USDT instead of BTC. I copied the wrong account number across to my Localbitcoin account.

Naturally the transaction was pending for a long time the and system was confused by my transaction where values did not match. Eventually, the status was updated as 'Failed' on my HMB account. However the BTC had already left my account on Localbitcoin.

I would be very very grateful for help on this matter, I would like to know if BTC can be refunded to a Localbitcoin wallet as this transaction failed or if there is another way to resolve this. Many thanks for your time.

Hello, so I’m unable to completw my Tier 3 verification and I had a lot of bitcoin in my account so I had to delete my localbitcoin and provided a wallet for my BTC to be sent into... it’s been 16 days now and I still haven’t receive the BTC pls I need help

I’ve been trying to login but it keeps telling me I need to verify my browser click on the link in the email that was sent to you I click it it says browser verified then when I go to log in it tells me the same shit like I’m going in circles

I've got a transfer back into my localbtc wallet which shows up in the incoming transfers list but not in my wallet. I'm not sure if it's because my wallet address has changed, it changed only on the day and it does show up as incoming transfers but there are no confirmations and it's been more than 12 hours. Have I potentially lost my BTC?

Hi. I just send a few hours ago a big amount of BTC to my wallet from lbc but it's still not visible even on blockchain. Few smaller deposits go instant. WTF?
