User reviews

Users praise Kraken's user-friendly interface, crypto trading and staking features, and easy bank account linking. However, many report hidden fees, poor and slow customer support, app instability such as freezing and endless updating, frustrating verification processes causing account closures, and frequent transaction errors including delayed deposits and unexpected charges. Overall, while some find it functional, the app receives widespread criticism for reliability and transparency issues.

Issues with verification process leading to account closures without explanation
Frequent transaction and withdrawal issues, delays, failed deposits, or being charged incorrectly

While very new to crypto currency and exchange, I was unaware of the hidden fees that one is charged, as well as how the purchase price that you see isn't the purchase price actually. The market is volatile enough on its own, but to have your purchase price different by approx $1,600.00 is ridiculous. The margins and percentages are greatly affected by Kraken's hidden fees. Other venues have a confirmation page so that you see exactly what the purchase price will be. I will be using those now.

Terrible app. They don't know what financial record keeping is. I spent 30$, they pulled out 50$ which never showed up in my account, I created a support ticket, they refunded the money back, NOW they want the 20$ back even though it wasn't theirs to begin with my account is locked because they think i owe them $20. They have been sued for this before and they are still doing it.
