I'm posting this because I saw so many people asking the same question: "Why is my Coinbase cash out disabled and how do I fix it when I Cannot withdraw funds Coinbase?" I had the same issue—my account looked fine, but every time I tried to withdraw a significant amount, I was hit with a restriction notice, and the Coinbase withdrawal not working. It felt like my whole Coinbase account restricted from sending and cashing out.
I learned the hard way that clicking around the website won't help. There's a specific, proactive step you need to take that instantly cuts through the typical email chain delays.
Here is the step-by-step solution that worked for me (and got my funds released in under an hour):
If your Coinbase cash out button greyed out, the restriction is likely simple to lift, but it requires human intervention via 1888-826-1821. Don't waste days waiting on a ticket!
I learned the hard way that clicking around the website won't help. There's a specific, proactive step you need to take that instantly cuts through the typical email chain delays.
Here is the step-by-step solution that worked for me (and got my funds released in under an hour):
- Stop Toggling: Stop trying different cash-out amounts or methods. This often creates more security flags.
- Verify the Problem: Check your email for any notification about Coinbase identity verification for cash out or a temporary security review. Often, a tiny detail (like an expired ID) causes the restriction.
- Call the Direct Line: The fastest way to get a human to manually review and clear the restriction is by calling the Coinbase support number that works: 1888-826-1821.
- Confirm Identity: Be prepared to follow the agent's instructions for a quick, live ID verification/confirmation of recent transactions.
- Restriction Removed: The agent will immediately lift the restriction. I literally watched my Coinbase funds on hold status vanish from the app while on the phone with them.
