for me kraken is one of the best exchanges in the market along with binance.
yeah i agree they still coulndt figure their server issues out.but other than that they r great.
have sent them several swifts all arrived within 24 hours which is exceptional if you ask me.
coin withdraws are secure and on time always.
support is a little slow but they always reply,plus there is a representative on bitcointalk forums trying to help.what other exchange has a rep here other than kraken?

We liked trading there for a long time and thought the same as you. However, the disrespect towards customers by running the service in the current state (going on for at least the past half year) is just unbelievable. And as they are knowingly continue to run their service without applying refunds for their faults according to their ToS, they are continuously in breach of contract with their customers. And there are several other points were they are knowingly in breach of contract. As they are continuing with the current state they are just criminals in our opinion.

Maybe you are one of the lucky ones then.

We are still waiting for refunds for 100's of to be placed and to be canceled positions which were not executed thereby leadig to errornous placement or not cancelled positions. If we would have put in all request it would 1000's, which require refunds according to Kraken's own ToS. Only taking the test of the last two days would require dozens of corrections/refunds.

The current error rate for placing orders is between 52-58%, and as it looks we will stop our test soon, as it is quite clear to us that the promise of a new trade engine etc was just the typical Kraken SCAM/lie to prevent customers from leaving.

All this has been going on for months and no sing of improvement except their ways to SCAM people.

If folks are happy being fooled by Kraken, go on and trade there. If you like real trading...go somewhere else..there are sufficient possibilities around for everyone's needs.

And about having people in forums like this. At the moment it looks to us that they only do this to give the impression of running a decent service. If they would reply to the request submitted via their website within acceptable time and manner, there would be no need for folks to go to forum like this one.

100% agree.  I used to be a big fan of Kraken, now I am moving all of my coin/fiat away.  I have had no issues PLACING orders, but withdrawing them has been nothing but a nightmare.  And I STILL can't create an Ether withdraw address.  They are very well aware of their problems, yet continue to TRAP people's money.  It is just nothing but criminal.  I can deal with a company working out issues and being honest about it (and I DID deal with these issues for several months because I believed in them), but I cannot ever trust them again after literally holding my money hostage.

I cannot emphasize enough to folks that if you send money to Kraken, please do not expect to be able to withdraw it in any form (fiat OR crypto).

Kraken promised a major upgrade on their servers a couple of days ago, but apparently it is not major enough lol.
I am also getting a lot of 520 errors, very frustrating.

There will be ....

Not do at this time

I'm worried cause I haven't received my withdrawal as well. I thought it was because of my bank, but it seems not. What is happening??

First time i write a complain post for Kraken but i had enough.

Apart from all the issues all of you have , which i also have ofcourse , the situation with Kraken is heading to worse day by day.
As of today Tuesday 12/12 i ll consider Kraken as a massively disfunctional exchange non suitable for day trading and on the fly trading for sure.

The only reason i keep "use" it is because it is the only one that accepts EURO in fiat and i had already made a deposit a couple of months ago when i first got into cryptos.

Apart from that , every single time i tried to make a trade it either didnt work on the 1st attempt , messed up the orders , showed canceled order later on and FULLFILED them despite the fact that i thought they were canceled , dont work at all and the API is garbage.

Shame on Kraken stuff. This is really sad.

Should we all fear that they will shut the doors one day and make a MtGox move? I just wonder.

IF ANYONE FROM THE STUFF IS MONITORING THIS THREAD PLEASE GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER AND FIX YOUR SERVERS. JESUS

I think they need to pay 50K € or something like that to get listed.
Not all are willing to pay.
Anyway is pointless to list any new coin/token there until the
performance issues are resolved.

Use Bitstamp for EUR. Works fine. Get into BTC, LTC or ETH. Use Bittrex & Co. for the other altcoins. Kraken is absolutely useless even for casual traders. Took me 48h to get a few crypto withdrawals through.

Such upgrade. Much wow...

I can confirm that as well
