They need to sort this DDOS and also start getting verifications processed.

DDOS was always going to be a potential issue.  Yet again with the Cloudfare, these guys are the real clowns - they cannot protect shit from DDOS.

Even before this though verification was becoming an issue.  What really irks me is that if Kraken do not have the staff to check docs then they should at least relax the checks until they do - say allow BTC withdrawals.  It should not be my problem that they have more verification requests then they can handle.

Also is anyone actually getting verified in the 'up to' 7 days or does everyone find it takes at least the full 7 days and a couple of emails to make it happen? 

Really going off Kraken which is sad as they had a nice site.
