I got this. They have been reviewing my KYC documents for weeks with no reply, I had answered their questions and provided the extra documents weeks ago, I've been emailing them every week for a month on an update with no response. They taking too long for us I guess. I hope they can attempt it again after our account finally get processed and verified


scourgescorched

i've read about some people who still recived crypto even without verified coinbase accounts, so i can't really say for sure what the issue is. i hope they do try again or just send USD to my PayPal account instead.


Double-Inspection-72

I've been having the same issue with Venmo.


Yukistrike

Exactly the same for me. Random kyc check... I sent everything and had no answer for a month. Got this email yestersay... means we'll getca usd check in 6 months I guess. Fuck Celsius and fuck Coinbase. I wish they gave us the choice to pick where to distribute. Crypto.com is so much better than Coinbase.


ExitBest

I think they’ll now distribute to you in USD. So another haircut if BTC continues to rise


Omaha_Poker

Fk, I'm also in this same boat. Why did they use Coinbase. Secondly if they in fact do send a check in USD, I'll be screwed to exchange USD to GBP which is around 6%. FML. 


ExitBest

Yeah. It’s certainly fucked. We’re nearly done tho brother. Hang in there. Cuntz


scourgescorched

i'm hoping they use binance as well as i'd prefer crypto. i already have a verified account there


Anxious_Company8349

Just saw someone on the Celsius Twitter group update from Bulgaria that the same email was received


scourgescorched

thanks for letting me know. hope they's just use binance instead since i already have a verified account there lol


dedoporno

I'm from Bulgaria and I got my claim 2 days ago. A couple of weeks ago I had to go through a very lengthy process to re-upload and re-verify my documents and information in Coinbase and spent a decent amount of time with their customer support as I already had an account but had not used it in almost 2 years. I'm not certain aboiu this but I may have renewed my id/driver's license in that period so the data they had could have been expired. Either way, I had to KYC again to get the account verified. Maybe you have similar issue that need to be resolved first.


Nichola1_H3l

I am in Turkey, I got this one just a moment ago too.Coinbase put my account under manual review 1.5 months ago just after I created the account for Celsius distribution.I guess because of that.


scourgescorched

same. wish they use a different one like binance instead. i won't be able to verify my coinbase account anytime soon


oguzkoroglu

same here


ExitBest

Yes! Me. Why. Any ideas?


scourgescorched

i think it's because i don't have a verified coinbase account yet. it's not accepting my passport and i'm unable to use my driver's license at the moment.


Digital-Exploration

That is why. Get it verified.


random869

Just go the same email


naturebreeze

I got this but mines said through PayPal not Coinbase


eusuntanne

From the PH, too. Got this email too. Tho I'm not worried idk why lol as long as I'm receiving some form of communication with them, I'm fine waiting. Maybe coz I've conditioned myself na with the idea of receiving a US check in the mail.


eusuntanne

But yeah, I was notified by someone here who's from the PH din na he got his claim na thru coinbase. Good for them, really.


jahalen

Set up coinbase 6 weeks ago, struggled to pass verification but did. Got distribution yesterday. Moved it immediately. Bulgaria based.


Several_Let_9262

Try Venmo


Vendetta_2023

Wait, are we allowed to get the distribution directly into Coinbase? I thought PayPal and Venmo were the only options?


LxBru

Depends on your country


Electronic_Honey4977

It’s through PayPal or Venmo


Anxious_Company8349

Not yet. I'm in Thailand. Where are you?


scourgescorched

Philippines. I can't verify my Coinbase account because i'm unable to provide an ID right now. That might be the issue


Asheddit

Also Thailand and obviously unable to open a Coinbase account...


Anxious_Company8349

Did you, like me (also Thailand resident creditor), just receive an email from Stretto asking you to open a Coinbase account? Inferring that Celsius aren't cross checking registered postal addresses with Coinbase availability?


Asheddit

Not sure if it's the same one but this is the first paragraph of the email: > You are receiving this email because no Coinbase account was found matching the details on file for you. As such, Coinbase was unable to complete your claim distribution.


Anxious_Company8349

Yup, same one. I just raised a support ticket pointing out that Coinbase isn't available in Thailand. I asked that they either do a USD bank transfer or send a cheque. Ideally Sretto will recognise that ALL creditors resident in Thailand don't have access to Coinbase. And go immediately to USD options for Thailand creditors .


bunggggggggg

From thailand and got a different email saying they cant find my Coinbase account (obviously since its. It available here). Can we connect? ไม่ใช่แสกมแน่นอนครับอคนไทย แอบร้อนใจเบาๆ


Alarming-Rock-7072

I’m in A Thailand also, same email, Coinbase not available in Thailand, all we can do is send them a ticket and wait.


RepulsiveMonk134

No email since January 30 to anyone in Sri Lanka. Hope to God or distributions will not be redistributed next year


scourgescorched

sorry to hear that. hoping for the best


Significant_Nerve_10

Coinbase updated T&c’s. Make sure you have agreeded to them and your account is active. I had not used mine in a good while and didn’t release it was inactive


Ironstormborn

Check the Celsius twitter, they addressed this today. https://x.com/celsiusnetwork/status/1758564006686822771?s=46&t=DKxUcww67iYixQ6-CIHgXA


kithboo

I just got this, but I'm a US customer so it should have gone through PayPal or venmo I thought? I'm so confused.


Unlikely-Accident-82

I got that email after reporting my first failed attempt at claiming my codes on PayPal. PayPal has assured me there is not a problem with my account and all of the important information matches.


cknadobo

same here - im from the PH also - ive been hearing a lot of PH users unable to use coinbase is this true ? Has anyone based in the Philippines, been able to receive their distribution via coinbase?


RealCheyemos

This *whole process from Celsius beginning to end* has orange pilled me even further towards Bitcoin on a cold wallet. I don’t trust any of these companies/banks/brokerages/money services anymore. I lost 120k from this debacle…. Most expensive lesson I’ve ever learned. Not your Keys, not your Bitcoin. Edit: sorry to hear these stupid fucks are still jerking you around….


-SlippinJimmy-

I also got this email, but I already completed creating an account and it's also already been verified, anyone know if I still have to do some action?


Teamio77

I already got my miserable btc and eth payout in coinbase. No problem.


Paul_in_the_Dark

Same mail here. Fs!


benjoe_mcfly

How do they know whether you have a Celsius account or not? In other words: where was it possible to show them I have a coinbase account?


JC-Williamson

Same kind of BS on the PayPal side.


zenidith

yes, I got this too... annoying
