One of the best P2P trading platform
Hello,
This is one of the best p2p trading platforms i've used in while. The transactions are fast, the transaction fees are moderate, the security is top notch and our interests and funds are protected by the website and its system. I've never had a issue with the site, only once my deposit was not credit but it was sorted out in matter of few minutes. Even the support is top class and informative and are working swiftly to resolve all our queries. I would rate the site 9/10. I have used almost all the trading platforms, this is one of the best available out there.
They don't actually punish scammers
They don't actually punish scammers. I had someone claim they paid, but when I disputed and arbitrator came in, all that happened was I lost my txn and escrow fee and they walked away free to try and scam someone else.
The best platform for buying and selling Bitcoin and Ethereum
I started using this platform a few months ago, and I've already made several trades with it. I really love it, and hope it continues developing and growing.
It is the most easy and private way to trade cryptos. However, you need to be careful from fraud attempts and scammers because they are there in that site. You just need to educate your self about their procedures, and you will gain with time enough experience to reveal them and avoid them accordingly. Localcryptos' team also has made a good effort in alerting you from scamming, and they have taken a good security procedures to block them.
Finally, I found it the most convenient trading platform to trade, as you own your funds, and you receive them with your favorable payment methods directly from your trading peer, unlike other trading platforms as Binance, where they control everything.
Excellent and reliable services.
Nice Platform
Nice Platform, but CAREFUL!
Save your private keys !!
They just ignore my mails and complaints until today after just closing my account.
Did not pay out my balance and did NOT EXPLAIN!
Reason (aparently): Without notice and without detail they suddenly do not like my mail domain.
Only BIG TECH Gmail could create a new account.
It's the Ameri Can Mafia behind this game, I must guess.

Reply from LocalCryptos
Fraud everywhere.
Fraud everywhere.
Even people pretending to be as moderator and fooled me into releasing escrow saying that it will fail.
Got scammed for $1000.
This site is just worthless because of all the scammers.
It is what I expected

I haven't had any issues since I started using this platform . You are directed properly in every stage of your transactions. So far so good 👍.
It's not worth it unfortunately
The platform itself has a pretty good UI. When it comes to protecting sellers, it's process is very convoluted and prone to being scammed especially for first time or new users. A lot of the functions of the site when speaking with buyers from a seller perspective coincides and seems that the site itself is trying to facilitate the release of your escrowed funds to scammers. The site also gives inaccurate warning signs nor protect you safely as a seller.
Their support team is somewhat quick to reply which is nice, however is slow to reply or unreachable when faced with bigger problem questions.
LocalCryptos actually has a good system and idea which protects the privacy of seller and buyers, but it's execution on safety and directedness of information to make informed decisions is lacking.
From a buyer side, watch out for low reputation traders. Don't use PayID and wait for funds to be in escrow first before actioning anything.

I used it and i found it safe to trade with. Sometimes, it get stuck a bit in the escrow but then you need to try another time
