Wasn't able to get a Coinbase account setup and their support never got back to me. Tried setting up a Kraken account today but the activation link doesn't work and their support seems non-existant just an automated email which is no help.

It's a good thing I'm not having an actual problem involving money.

Kraken's automated support says they delete unverified accounts every 2 hours so I'll give them another shot and if not onto a different exchange. Can't believe I'm having so much trouble just setting an account up.
