Is anyone else unable to buy Bitcoin through Kraken by linking bank account? I’ve done it this way many times, only now having issue. Talked to Kraken staff, and bank (Wells Fargo) staff, tried everything they said to do and still won’t work! Help! Now I can’t get cheap BTC!

Today is April 4.
I thought that as of March 27 Kraken only allows wire transfers and not ACH transfers.
Hey u/RonPaulWasR1ght,
Please hit us with your [public account ID](https://support.kraken.com/hc/en-us/articles/360028555092) or ticket # – we’d love to get some extra π’s on this and get to the bottom of it once and for all!
Thanks,
Dray from Kraken π
So, Kraken staff told me to try it on Google Chrome, which I did and still same thing. They told me log out then back in, delete payment method and retry, I did all that, same issue. They told me to call my bank, which is Wells Fargo. The bank lady said to reset my password, which I did, same issue. I can log into my bank just fine online, so I know the credentials are accurate. But, can’t link it through Kraken! I have been able to pay this way in the past many times with no issue, most recently middle of last month. This is first time it’s having this issue. Kraken folks said they weren’t having others with this issue. Wells Fargo lady said she didn’t know what else to tell me to try. I have double and triple checked my UN and PW, they match what I use (successfully) to login to bank….
Just exasperating! And it’s an issue because this is, by FAAAAR, the most cost efficient way to get BTC. Coinbase is higher, its far higher if I use debit card, etc. Bisq takes too long, I want my Bitcoin now….
Is anyone else having this issue? Has anyone had it in the past and solved it? If so, what did you do to solve it. Thanks everyone for your help. This is frustrating.
EDIT: I tried on the phone app, same thing. Restarted computer, tried again on both Microsoft Edge and Chrome, same thing. Bank lady told me the account is fine so it should link, but the Kraken guy doesn’t know what else to say. Short of going and starting another bank account and trying that…I don’t know what else to do. I guess I just can’t get cheap BTC any more. Wow.
Iβll lay odds the problem is Wells Fargo. I would never bank with them.
wait you can use ach to buy crypto in kraken
is that allow now ?
