“No SCAM”

Guillaume B.
6/12/23

It's not a scam, my account has been unblocked and is operational. They were very reactive with me ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I opened an account with them and tested small amounts in sending and receiving, it worked very well. As soon as I wanted to send a large amount, they blocked my account for verification and did not give a clear deadline. I made video captures of the account in case everything disappears. I will update this comment regularly.

“Investing small amounts”

Darlene B.
2/11/24

I had been using their platform for a while, investing small amounts here and there without any issues. One day, however, I decided to deposit a larger sum than usual - about 10,000 USDT. To my horror, instead of appearing in my account balance as expected, the transaction simply disappeared into thin air! When I tried reaching out to customer support, all I received were automated responses and vague assurances that someone would look into my case shortly.

They are 100% scammers, instead of releasing the coins they just lie that you have to be authenticated, did we authenticate them? They constantly seek to attract new victims by posting deceptive texts and photos on social networks, and unfortunately, no one reports them on social networks so that their trap is dismantled...
I requested withdrawal many times, but unfortunately nothing happened and they have locked my accounts and won't give them to me...
I request everyone to report them so that their scams are collected and no one falls into their trap... as soon as possible...
Your answers are not convincing at all, everyone in your team is one person and answers with different names on social networks and forums, stop this nonsense and release our coins...
According to the last photo, when we add all your requests without any problems and ambiguity, you reject it with the excuse of not giving the coins, just to buy time, shut down the lie and put aside this ridiculous game as soon as possible and the coins Give us...!

Tip for consumers:

Hi there, we don't charge our fees on a percentage basis. On the contrary, the fee remains flat for any amount. With the rising demand for crypto, the fees are adjusted to ensure your transaction gets processed instantly due to the higher volume of transactions. If you'd like us to take a look at your withdrawal fee, please contact us here: https://bit.ly/2rgGdRw. As for the identity verification, you can start using the Freewallet account with no regard for your verification status. The identity verification feature is optional and does not affect your activity.
UPD: Hi, we haven't heard back from you yet. Can we still be of assistance?

At first, the wallet worked mediocre and slowed down, which didn't look very pleasant, but over time it began to get better. Maybe the developers quickly corrected the shortcomings, or there was a problem on my side. Excluding this I like the rest of the wallet. I do transactions infrequently, but consistently, and at the same time I know that I can rely on it. It is a pity that the first impression spoiled the effect.

My customer id: b83bc440 I've a little fund in my account but whenever i try to withdraw that. Instantly it shows failed & then i contact support & they asked for verification. So i provided them with all the required information but still they are not allowing me to withdraw my fund. Even they charging fees without any reason like -$70 charge as inactivity fees! Seriously? What does inactivity fees mean? Even after that they are still not allowing me to withdraw. Whenever I message them, they just answer like " we will inform you whenever we have an update for you" what the hell is this? Please don't deposit your fund here in this scam wallet. They will surely stole your money. (I will change this review if they solve my problem & enable withdraw in my account)

I decided to try a new cryptocurrency wallet and went through KYC verification as usual. However, I soon started receiving suspicious emails and calls demanding additional data from me. As it turned out, my personal information had been compromised through the KYC process. Someone was using this information to access my wallet and steal funds. Instead of security, KYC became a source of serious problems for me. Be careful and check how your data is handled after KYC.

Hi, we offer network fees that help confirm transactions made by our users faster. If the network is overloaded with transactions, those with smaller fees will take significantly more time to get confirmed by the miners. There are 4 fee options for sending Bitcoin in Freewallet. You can choose whether you pay a bit more for your BTC coins to be delivered quickly or send coins with a lower fee and have them delivered at a later time. If you'd like us to look at your withdrawal fee, please email me at https://bit.ly/2rgGdRw

Freewallet - robbers! I exchanged ether for bitcoins and there was a technical error. My money disappeared and now Freewallet just ignores my pleas for help. How can they be so indifferent to their users? I fell for their promises of convenience and practicality. What practicality is there... How do I get my money back?

After not using Freewallet for a long time, when I tried to log in I was told to pass verification. But after passing I noticed that all my savings were transferred to unknown addresses, but I did not make these transactions. In total I lost 1 ETH and 7 LTC.

I am writing this review out of total frustration... I opened an account with freewallet since 2020, i started facing withdrawal issues since 2020, they wanted some verification at that point which i was not comfortable with and come 2024, i realized i wouldn't let this go which made me start the rigorous verification process.
I presented verification on the App and that wasn't enough and they requested for more via email. They asked me to send my passport copy, asked me to have a written note claiming ownership of my account with a selfie which i did, they asked for bank statements which i presented to them. I waited over a week just for their response to be that ' they can not verify me as the owner of the account without giving any reason. I have seen a lot of reviews with the same issue and makes me think, is this a scam? If they are, why put people through so much stress.
I am retired and i need these funds to cover my medicals, i am pleading to free wallet to please release my funds as i have done everything possible. If you require me to do more verification, I will! Just release my funds.
There is a disclaimer already on my account that "we can no longer provide you with our services. Please withdraw your funds but why can't i withdraw? I need help please.

My ticket Id is ******* and my user id *******b12

UPDATE TO MY REVIEW IN RESPONSE TO LAUREN G

Understanding the reason behind the decision to discredit the verification documents is crucial for me to move forward. I firmly believe that transparency and communication are essential in maintaining trust and confidence among users. I am the valid owner of the account and the email that was used to open the account is the same email of correspondence.
Also, I have done series of verification that any third party can not provide (Bank statements, written attestation with selfie, passport copy etc).
After all of these, only a company with sketchy motives will discredit all these means of identification and say i am not the valid owner. This begs the question, what is freewallet doing with all my identification documents? I NEED MY FUNDS!

I was one of the first victims of this fraudulent app.
They confiscated my 1.******* ethereum on December 2019.
They demanded several documents some which didn't exist in my country and despite my explaining on countless occasions that such documents are none existing in my country, they kept repeating the same statement.
Even after providing notarized translation of my ID, which all governments accept, they called it insufficient and claimed that their company is far more superior to any government.
Funny thing is that everywhere anyone posts a comment about this fraud agency, some messages pop's up from them claiming that all their requests are legit. Ir they completely reject the victim's statement.
Freewallet.org has no address, no phone number and even names of their CEO and staff are unknown. Their servers are registered in Germany but they claim the headquarters to be in Hong Kong while no one is able to locate if such organisation really exis.
That begs the question why would Play Store permit such app on their list.

Technical support arranged a long verification procedure, they asked to confirm the origin of the money, send a passport, a selfie and a bunch of other documents - they provided everything. The account is still blocked and they do not allow me to withdraw money.
The last thing I heard from technical support: "We've already sent you a reply in another chat.

I decided to try Freewallet to manage my cryptocurrency assets, but my experience was far from perfect. It all started with a small transaction of 0.05 BTC, which I decided to transfer to my account. However, my funds were blocked immediately after the transfer and I had to contact support. In response, I received a requirement to go through KYC verification, which turned out to be so crazy that even such a thing didn't occur to me. I was required to send not only photos of documents but also a video proving my identity. I realized that this was beyond reasonable, but I had to agree in order to get my funds back. However, even after going through the whole procedure, my funds remained blocked. I contacted support again, but only got the standard responses that my application was under review. In the end, I lost not only my 0.05 BTC, but also time and nerves on this unpleasant situation. I recommend everyone to avoid Freewallet and similar services to avoid such troubles and loss of funds.

Tip for consumers:
No one likes to be cheated, so think 1000 times before downloading. I would advise you to be more careful when choosing a wallet, a lot of positive reviews and good advertising is not an indicator of success. Here we go.
