How to Find a Reliable Crypto Customer Service Phone Number?

Cryptocurrency has changed how we invest, trade, and safely put value away but not to exaggerate, when a problem occurs, frustration with getting help can arise. One of the most frequent questions, from novice to considerate use cases, is: Is there a crypto customer service number I can call?

In this post, we'll help provide guidance on how to find and receive reliable support for crypto-related challenges and what you should look out for.

Why Its Hard to Find a Crypto Customer Service Phone Number?

Most crypto clients are less inclined to provide their customers with a customer service phone number than other banking or payment solutions. Some exchanges or wallet companies will inform their consumers that they only provide email or chat instead of over the phone support. Never the less, being unable to just ask your question or explain a problem to another human being can leave you feel naked when:

• You have logging in problems

• You lost 2FA codes to verify login/auth code

• You are waiting on a Legitimate Delay Transaction

• You have a stuck withdrawl

• You notice account hacking or suspicious activity

Which Cryptocurrency Companies Possess a Customer Support Phone Number?

While not every cryptocurrency platform offers a customer service phone number, there are some larger companies that are regulated, which offer a phone number for limited support. Here are some examples of companies that might have limited phone support or use it in a different way:

1. Coinbase: They will have phone support available for account security issues. (If you are in the U.S., the number is 1-888-908-7930).

2. Crypto.com: Cryptocurrency.com will usually contact you through a live chat, but sometimes even make a call rather than initiate through chat for serious cases.

3. Gemini: As far as we know, there is not a publicly posted number but users that have initiated a request have reported they received a call back from their call service.

4. Binance.US: There may be limited phone support, but they will primarily work through a ticket and live chat.

Tip: Always verify the number you are calling is legit and on an official website before calling a number. Scammers create fake "crypto customer service numbers" in order to steal your information.  

Suggested Approach to Connecting to Crypto Support Safely

If you can’t find a phone number these are ways to securely contact them:  

• Use official website or app only

• Submit a support ticket as detailed as possible

• Use two factor authentication to protect your account

• Don’t use random numbers you find in blogs or forums from third parties.

Alert: Be Cautious of Crypto Phone Support Scams

Many fraudsters post fake crypto support phone numbers on the internet. They will typically:

• Impersonate firms like Coinbase or Binance

• Ask you to give them your private keys or recovery phrase (NEVER do this)

• Request remote access to your computer

• Ask you to transfer crypto for "verification"

Rule of thumb: If you are ever asked for your recovery phrase, it is a scam: it does not matter who is asking.

Conclusion:

It can be hard to reconcile the idea that you can't get a crypto customer service phone number during an emergency. However, most companies won't provide support over the phone, and definitely not 24 hours a day/seven days a week. Instead, engage with the company's official support channels, be patient, and do everything you can to protect your private information. If you're in trouble and unsure where to go, your best option is to go to the official website or app for the exchange or wallet you're using. Finally, never divulge sensitive information to anyone claiming to be crypto support unless you absolutely, positively have verified their identity.
