I'm another victim, I have created another thread with my story as well.
Freewallet_org suspended my account with $23k usd
I signed up to the Freewallet account back 2018. I initially deposited and withdrew small amounts of coins to make sure it was legit. All seems OK until a few months ago.
Freewallet started charging "inactivity fees" with no notice, and also suspended my account when I tried to withdraw.
To add salt to the woubd, the old app also is now redirecting people to a new app, and my old account cannot be accessed on the website because I signed up through Facebook back in 2018.
So I contacted support..
I got the runaround with the support team asking for more and more unreasonable information.
They are asking for screenshots from OTHER services where the coins came from complete with the hash.. few services retain these information!
In sum, my experience was:
- my account being suspended for unknown reasons with no notification
- inactivity fee that keeps getting charged, the account is inactive because it is suspended
- unable to login to the web version of the platform anymore through Facebook or Google
- app being "upgraded" and inability to access the old app in many instances
- the "upgraded" app is actually a different one where you need to create a new account
- support asking for information that is impossible to obtain for some people including myself
- basically making us jump through hoops to keep the funds in our account
- making people experience financial hardship when they were relying on those funds.
I have submitted a report to New Zealand authorities regarding my funds being locked on the platform.
I have also submitted a report to IC3. Other actions taken:
Report to Google Play and iOS
Go to the media with my story
Submit more complaints to law enforcement in relevant countries
Keep posting on Reddit and other platforms
If anyone has further suggestions on what we can do, I am keen to hear
