Easy to put money in, difficult to get it back out
Bybit is an unpolished platform that hides the basic facts of how they do business. That's what makes them act like scammers.
Concretely they make it easy to deposit, but then, when you want to buy premarket stuff, they require 10 more documents, so you want to get out again.
Then, it turns out, you can't just reverse your deposit. They still require more proof. This is ridiculous. They also don't respond on their help desk. Don't do business with this company.
# Examples
As an example of how things fail because the platform is unfinished: their Google Authenticator "2-factor", needed to withdraw, fails without any message as to why. It just doesn't work. Apparently they presuppose things that only work for their model citizen, with a model internet connection.
The site also logs you out for no reason at all, while using it. Then says the password stored in the browser is invalid, and require you to go through the selfie authentication process again.
The helpdesk doesn't answer tickets for 3 weeks, and then refuses if you try to submit another ticket. Why don't you just append it to the current one? Too difficult, it's easier to complain about the user.
These examples show how full of cracks this website is, and why support doesn't solve anything. They want us to pity this business, for they are doing such a good job. Here's a tip: If someone wants to get out, don't overload them with security measures intended to protect $100k investments. You waste everybody's time!
