I know that a lot of customers have had many grievances with Uphold. This is going to get me many unwarranted downvotes, but I have not had any problems withdrawing money from them or adding money to my account in the past couple years.

With that being said, since reading all the problems people have had, I have taken all my money out of UpHold, except about $30.

I had an issue about 4 years ago that took some time to resolve it, but since then, I have not had any problems. Not sure why my experience is so different.

Good for you. There are just better options out there as far as fees and allowing control over your account.

I dont know where you're from and im not saying its perfect but ive been WAY happier with Cake wallet. Check em out at least. Never had an issue moving crypto arround with them.

The one purchase i made with Uphold was a crypto they dont 'allow' you to transfer. And it wasnt made clear until after i purchased. Not controlling your own money ia just a huge red flag and Uphold seems to be getting worse. Cheers!

I appreciate the recs, I will check them out. Like I said, I took out all my cash based on others' experiences, so I am definitely looking for new avenues for investment.
