After one has invested so much money it suddenly became worthless and the whole money went down the drain. i won't advice anyone to invest here Because getting a charge back is quite hard. i didn't even know a charge back is possible until i spoke to the agents at Rose Lane GP in one of their free consultation session

Scam, Dodgy, Worthless – It is so sad and frustrating to realise this QOIN is absolutely USELESS and WORTHLESS. I see some typical replies from Qoin here (eg. spend in listed merchandises) but one of problems is NOBODY accepts Qoin. Vast majority of businesses listed in the directory are not accepting Qoin at all. They say Noah! because they know they can't convert to… Read more

cash and they can't do anything about Qoin anywhere. BTX (owned by the same Qoin founders?) doesn't work either. I have my hard-earned sales (in Qoin) in my business (and paid GST on them and paid to suppliers in cash), but unfortunately these can't be covered to cash, can't use anywhere. This company should be reported to the Consumer Protection agent and relevant legal bodies as well. Why do we need to lose money like this?!!

Worthless, beware – Unfortunately Qoin is worthless now, it was a great idea, but now cannot be liquidated. I have my hard earned money invested in Qoin as thousands of others do, but Qoin is keeping it all to themselves along with false promises that a cash out option will occur. Do not under any circumstance invest in Qoin, they do not care about helping your… Read more

business only their own. It is a shame that there are people in this would who would do this to many hard working people and just blatantly keep their money, that is the definition of stealing, no matter how you may word it. You who work for Qoin should be ashamed to work for such a business.

It's not a scam... it just has no broad utility – The concept of using a "token" has been around as long as goods have been for sale. "Buy one get one free" or "1,000 airmiles with every ticket". Qoin follows these precedents and is a good idea intrinsically. The problem is twofold: - "money" replaced barter because of the difficulty of matching buyers and sellers; Qoin has the exact same… Read more

problem; the marketplace is very limited - no crypto Qoin meets the criteria to be classified as "money"; among other attributes money must be convertible and widely accepted; despite the nominal conversion rates published, it is IMPOSSIBLE to convert Qoin to any other medium, whether crypto, fiat or commodity.

The concept isn't a scam but the representation that it is convertible to AUD is pretty close. Don't go there.

This is the scam of all scams – All started for my business back in Jan of 21, we signed up and were told that it would revolutionise the way we trade and do business, frankly its been nothing but a headache, I have recently called Qoin support due to the fact that multiple times a day over the last 3 weeks I have tried to withdraw the maximum amount which is only $125.00 AUD,… Read more

to be told; "It not possible" when speaking to Qoin support the customer service agent has legitimately told me, "No one has been able to withdraw for months, wait for the wrapped Qoin" this is seriously such a scam, I have tens of thousands tied up in this fake currency, it makes it worse when I am asked "Why do you want to withdraw Qoin?" I explained I have been doing deals at 50% Qoin and want to recoup some of my expenses that I paid out in cash for supply's, only for the agent to retort back with "You should be mindful of your financial situation and not trade in anything that you're willing to lose" - THIS is such a nonsense Non answer, this is the kind of language scam artists use.

You are signed up, you have this big meeting with people on Zoom, they brag about how much it has grown and how far its going, where it'll be, how much better off you'll be, all so you can line the pockets of the inventors, this is essentially another 'Trade Dollar' scam, a barter system that you pay to get in with cold hard cash, only to be the sole remaining sucker that is left with the pile of Cr*p which is copious amounts of worthless Qoin.

The facts of the matter are this; Qoin was started by 2 men, the same 2 men own BTX which is the "Exchange" that you can trade Qoin on, now keep in mind, its exclusively only available to sell on BTX, now the very same 2 men get to decide when to buy back their worthless currency, the real reason no-one can sell their Qoin is because people are chomping at the BIT to sell it, and they know they cannot accommodate the sales, they cannot accommodate the sheer volume of people that want out of it, so essentially all the merchants that have Qoin are held hostage by these losers, I frankly am under the belief they will never let anyone sell it, because they want to cheat and steal from hardworking small businesses, YOU WILL NEVER SEE BIG BUSINESS ON QOIN.

Things are so bad at the moment there is currently a class action lawsuit started by Salerno Law, I signed up today, I invite anyone, I repeat ANYONE that has any Qoin to register your case with them, these frauds need to go to jail, I hope justice will be done, I have lost thousands of dollars by using Qoin and being unable to sell it, my first instinct was it was a scam, I should have trusted my gut, the sad thing is, they initially talk to prospective people how its like a crypto, the only crypto portion is that whenever they sign up a new merchant, they can generate $7500.00 worth of Qoin from the reserve (This is straight from their white paper), this is the only shape it is like a crypto and what does this mean, they have extra Qoin to try and shovel down the throats of unsuspecting people.

I am writing the review in the hope it saves someone, even if its just one person that is on the fence from signing up, please steer clear, do not do it, you will regret it.

Qoin has no real worth – First, I try to sell the coin but that proved to be impossible, what really is the use of a coin I can’t sell or swap, it’s basically useless and has no true value. I asked that they either convert my earnings to dollars or to a valid digital currency like Btc and have it sent to my wallet or they have my initial deposit returned to me but then… Read more

they stopped responding and had me locked out of my account. In an attempt to get back even a fraction of the amount I put into acquiring the Qoin tokens, I filed a class action complaint with Fintrack.org and they had my deposit sent directly into my wallet alongside the profits made on my account as a results of the trading activities that were being carried out secretly with my capital.

A different way of operating – Qoin does work. It’s often not easy but it does work. The majority of the 1 star reviews just do not understand how Qoin is designed to operate. The only reason Qoin is a little difficult at the moment is because so many people just do not understand it and that is clear by the terminology of the 1 star reviews. It is not an investment and it is… Read more ·  1

not called cashing out. People using this uneducated terminology are the exact reason why Qoin is a little difficult at the moment. Qoin is good and does work if you trade as it was designed.

I would advise against playing with this lot – Despite being advised that I can cash out my investment, every time I try and convert some Qoin to cash the system rejects the application. It also appears that more and more dealers will not accept payment in Qoin. My funds are stuck in Limbo if I can't cash out or purchase products. There is no coherent help from the Help Desk.

Stay away - impossible to use or sell - Certainly do not invest – The concept isn't too bad in theory yet Qoin has no real value because it is not freely tradable either within the Qoin economy or on a proper blockchain enabled exchange. (They say this is coming but there will most likely be a rush for the doors to sell if it happens). Vast swathes of free Qoin were given to businesses to "sign up". I have… Read more

contacted upwards of 25 companies to try and spend Qoin and without exception each one politely told me to get lost. At best they say they allow a couple of customers to use Qoin each month & then they stop. Hardly a free flowing economy. Essentially business owners now understand that they will be swapping goods & services for something they can only onward swap and find extremely hard to convert to "real" fiat or crypto currency.

Qoin do have a pseudo exchange where they claim you can sell Qoin but that is limited to $100 per day and over the past week I have tried to sell just 1 x $100 several times a day and each time without exeption was met with the message, "Sorry your block sale attempt could not be matched with Buyers at this time". So there is no market, just a potential market making matching of buyers and sellers at a huge spread.

Gumtree is awash with people trying to offload their Qoin at any price. For example todays quoted price is $9.58 . . . yet sellers on Gumtree are offering Qoin at $0.35, $0.40 and $0.50 each.

e.g1: Qoins at Best Price 40c Negotiable Hi There, I want to sell off my 10000 qoins at dirt cheap price. Can meet face to face or can arrange online transfer. Thank You.

e.g2: Qoin for sale great price 50 c each can meet up face to face

As it stands it seems impossible to use Qoin or convert it to anything that resembles real money unless you want to send it to someone else with a Qoin wallet. This doesn't fit the model of a decentralised digital economy when the doors are locked and Qoin holders are trapped inside being forced to play swapsie with their goods and services.

All said and done though most people have been given free Qoin and can therefore shrug it off and wait to see what happens in the future. Sadly part of the sign up promotion was a focus on the straight line rising price of Qoin (created by an algorithm with no links to actual monetary reality) and the offer of the chance to "get in" on this months big block purchase by purchasing Qoin at a steep discount with actual dollars as an investment.

On the upside those "investors" (who parted with fairly significant sums of money), can tell themselves they are now sat on a healthy "profit" according to the Qoin price but on the downside it is utterly meaningless if you cannot sell, spend or even withdraw your original investment. It is so illiquid you have to question whether it even exists anymore.

The business model cannot be generating much income for the Qoin company at present and yet they are spending vast amounts on marketing and advertising, e.g. Queensland Reds . . . Therefore, one has to wonder where all the money for these huge promotions is coming from . . . . . .

Final thought, the positive reviews here for Qoin are just too positive, notice how they are all gushing beyond compare and yet the vast majority are negative and detail real world experiences.

The app wont load places to use your Qoin beyond the home page it simply locks… Read more

up and freezes. Most people selling anything on there are the same old Bartercard vendors out to over charge and mostly refuse to take the currency. I would sell mine at a loss just to get out of the system. Just like Bartercard another system of taking your money, not providing support and nowhere to spend it. Someone is getting rich but it certainly is not any of the users. Oh and don't bother reaching out to their trading partners for support or messaging Qoin themselves as nobody replies or if they do its basically a big "oh sorry theres nothing we can do"

Business barter system with Qoin not cash – 0 is my rating. This is NOT and again I will repeat it, NOT an investment. It’s a closed barter system between businesses. Once your money is in, the max you can draw out currently is $125 IF you can.

Rubbish – The amount of merchants that will accept 100% coin in my area is non existent. The few that take coin are reluctant and usually don’t return calls. The ability to cash out on the exchange in NIL. After trying multiple random times every day for 2 weeks I have given up. I would have rather donated my money to medical research than Qoin fat cats.

using Qoin and much of it was paid for by the appreciation of our Qoin. We get cash booking referrals from our Qoin customers also. It's about how you use it..the ones saying scam simply don't know how utilise it or you are not using it as a utility coin as intended and therefore not getting any of the benefits and worse be forced to sell too cheap. Qoin has to be managed as do Qoin murchant relationships in my opinion.

Cost us nothing to join, we have had ongoing support from reps and community, have access to some incredible businesses and helping us to get to know our local business community.
