I am a user from Netherlands. The easiest and fastest method of payment is the iDeal payment method. Just during the last weekend, this payment option have been removed from the list of options on my Luno app. Secondly, Luno need to review the amount they charge for every transaction on the app. They charge high rate when you buy, sell or even withdraw which makes it difficult to make profit on investment capital.

I recently received an amount of less than BTC 0.0001, just to discover that under the guise of dusting attacks, they take all the money received as a fee. Apparently, as a safeguard against that. Reaching out to support left me with zero solution. Receiving and taking the money under the pretense of safeguarding against some sort of attack makes no sense. They did ask me to verify that the wallet it is coming from belongs to me, but no warning that they will take it.

I can't access my app, and every time I try to login, it doesn't get through. A notification email was sent to my email stating it recognized my phone, but I can't access it after I key in password. I can only login via website.
