Best exchange place i know
Soooooo nice. Escrow service is really good and Bitcoin withdrawals are very fast. Thank you.
Helpful Customer Service
The support checked my issue and reactivated my account. They were very helpful.
Secure and fast transaction
This transaction website is safe and fast, any buyer and seller cheats will be quickly locked and blocked, reducing the loss of both buyers and sellers, worth recommending and using, the only drawback, each transaction requires the cost of hosting blockchain, sometimes slowing down the speed of transactions
Nice support services
Nice support services. I'll give 5 stars after a successful trade though.

Suspicious activity detected
I noticed something fishy about a buyer and reported it to the admin.
The admin found that the buyer used a 3rd party bank account to make payment without their knowledge.
After more scrutiny, the buyer was found wanting; thus, removed from the platform.
Great work @admin.

Please republish the review They flag my review as harmful because they are scammers and didn't want to show this in them review. I lost my money on this platform and they disabled my account 😭 😭.because the seller scammed me and admin was be side him.

He told me to wait admin who was in his side and the admin speaking with threats in his talks that he didn't care about dispute and bout losing my money.
I sent details to seller to refund money to the source account but the seller was trying to scam so he told me that will call the bank to refund it 😭 and wise will never refund completed payment.
I told this to admin but he said to me he didn't care and will wait to see what will happened.
After 2 days the seller said that money refunded and I try to see if I received money back but account is deactivated by wise so I can't login and he didn't want to share any evidence to me just with admin only I don't know why he did that because I am a part of appeal and admin sent him his email to forward screenshot of refunds

A user claimed that coins were deposited in escrow when In fact it was not. The user asked me to make my payment. I refused. I reported the user to support service. The case was reviewed and the user was removed from the platform within the hour. Well done.

You guys are the best
You guys are the best. I was scammed because am new on this platform but the way you guys attended to me was overwhelming.
You are the best.
My experience has been all good
My experience has been all good. I've bought Bitcoin numerous times from various people and everything went smooth. Just follow the escrow system and make sure everything stays in the private chat so you stay safe as possible. As you know with any good system, scammers will try to take advantage but on LCS, its very transparent and user friendly, so its easy to spot someone shady. Someone tried getting me to send money before escrow and I notified support about them and support acted swiftly and removed them from the site. It's a great system but we have to do our part to keep it safe so it can be as free as possible.
