It has over 10 million customers. However, not all users were fans of the development. Some claimed that the company should have devoted more attention to improving the customer experience than allocating funds to such partnerships.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">You keep spending all this money with your partnerships, but still your customer support is the worst. Some still don\u2019t have refunds from when you were hacked.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 David Blyth (@DavidBlythBEM) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DavidBlythBEM\/status\/1487048457588248578?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 28, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<template data-name=\"subscription_form\" data-type=\"crypto_biz\"><\/template><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
