How To Delete Your Poloniex Account With Ease

Poloneix lets you buy and sell digital assets like Ethereum, Bitcoin, TRON, and other altcoins. However, with the hacks, insolvency rumors, frozen accounts, disabled withdrawals, and a slowdown in customer support, it makes sense to consider deleting your Poloniex account.

The problem is, is not easy. You must submit a ticket and hope that the notoriously slow support team will respond. It gets even trickier when you can't access or log in to your account because you won't be able to fill out the forms and submit a ticket. In such a scenario, it's easier to let DoNotPay help you delete the account on your behalf.

DoNotPay is an automated app that helps users resolve online account issues, including deleting accounts like Poloniex, Venmo, PayPal, and Uber. It can also remove email accounts like AOL, Yahoo, or Gmail, social media profiles like Instagram or Facebook, eCommerce platforms like Amazon, and dating sites like eHarmony.

Reasons to Close Poloniex Account

While Poloniex is among the liveliest and user-friendly exchanges globally, it can be impractical for reasons like:

  • The fact that it doesn't support fiat currency means you can only make deposits and withdrawals online through cryptocurrency.
  • You may have problems with crypto withdrawals but still not get Poloneix support, or it might take too long to get help.
  • Security reasons – Poloniex holds your private key, which exposes you to a potential risk of being hacked.
  • Too many emails and ads from the company.
