Customer Support is very good at resolving my login issue. Service is efficient and fast. The only thing of concern is how I don't receive certain email replies from the Support team; those emails don't even appear in the spam/junk inbox folder. Not sure if my email server is automatically blocking some of the replies. Anyway, the Customer Support service has been great. 5 stars for the service.

The transaction charges are too much. 2% on every buy and sell. if it is 2% per at least five consecutive transactions, it will be fine. Not just that, after paying the big charges, you will still get the Coins at future price, which is bad. if you want to sell your coin, you get big charges again and sell at a lesser price compared to the current price of the coin which can make you lose most of your profit. Kindly review the charges and ensure coin are bought and sold in current price.

Don't get me wrong I love this app, it's basically all you could possibly ask for but MY GOD the fees and charges are outrageous, ridiculous and preposterous to the point where it's almost funny... except it's not. If you have a decent amount of cash and don't mind losing a couple of bucks, fine but if you're like me and just want to own 1 or 2 USDT, then this app is not for you, other than that this app is great
