Coinbase when I said why did you take the money from my account they said you used our platform to conduct activities that are not authorized by our company. Second time they froze the account for 7 days and did not return the BTC deposit from fxchoice I had made.
Now I use abra and pay higher fees and cash app and kraken, have yet to have a problem. Maybe it’s just a madder of time before I have issues with one of those btc <-> usd converter companies.
This has been my experience with coinbase, others may not have had any kind of issues using coinbase. I was not using pro just the normal coinbase. I do not know if its something allowed by pro and not allowed by coinbase regular. I do not want to take the chance on dealing with them. That is just me.

Thanks for the heads up. Always looking for more ways to transfer. Looking into Cash App.
what’s the fees like with cash app
2% what I have found to be the real number when all said and done with money in the account but you need to wait 2 days for transfer of USD -> Bank Account.
ok, if you buy bitcoin on coinbase with debit card you should transfer your bitcoin to coinbase pro then send your bitcoin to your broker

All of this talk regarding Coinbase made me curious, so I took a look at their policy regarding prohibited business activities. I have to say, this is looking like PayPal all over again, in the sense that they want to control everything that you can/cannot use their service for, and anything that they deem unsuitable is subject to account freezing/termination and withholding of funds etc.:
Here is an excerpt that would pretty much cover anything that we are doing:
By opening a Coinbase Account, you confirm that you will not use Coinbase Services in connection with any of following businesses, activities, practices, or items:
…
- High risk businesses: any businesses that we believe poses elevated financial risk, legal liability, or violates card network or bank policies
…
Cryptocurrency is considered by most to be a high-risk investment. As per usual, the hilarity ensues…

Yes I’m aware, Ive bought on the app before but my concerned are their limits and how frequent I can get my withdrawals, hence the question about the withdrawal limits

withdrawal limits different person to person, they increase mine to 2K a week now. It’s more than enough for me. Coinbase /PayPal ect. also have a withdrawal limit depends person account size . There is a way to increase your limit and you ask them how to increase your limit.

You may also use a crypto pay card to withdrawal cash and/or make purchases etc… Limits are usually much higher.
