How to Contact 8lends Support
No one from 8lends writes first, asks for your seed phrase, or sends links to a "new site" — spotting the four real channels keeps your wallet safe.
8lends support is available through four official channels: [email protected], Telegram https://t.me/eightlends (the team's personal contacts for urgent matters), and the community Telegram chat for general discussions. The standard response time is up to 24 hours on business days. For efficient resolution, provide your wallet address, transaction ID, a description of the problem, and screenshots. ⚠️ All other channels are phishing. No one from 8lends ever writes first, asks for your seed phrase, or sends links to a "new site".
Official Support Channels
| Channel | When to use | Response time |
|---|---|---|
| [email protected] | Main — all questions, documents, disputes, KYC | Up to 24 hours |
| Telegram: https://t.me/eightlends | Urgent matters, escalation | Quick reply during working hours |
| Community Telegram chat | General questions, discussing projects with other investors | The community responds within hours |
⚠️ Any other "official" channels are phishing. There is no "8lends WhatsApp," "8lends Discord," or "8lends Twitter DM" — anyone claiming to provide support through these channels is a scammer. More details
What's Important to Include in Your Request
To speed up resolution, give as much information as possible in your very first message:
- Your wallet address (full, starting with 0x...)
- A brief description of the problem in one sentence
- Details — what you did, what you expected, what you got
- Screenshots — the error screen, the state of the interface
- Transaction ID on basescan.org (if available)
- Time of the event (date, preferably the hour)
- Browser and device (for technical problems)
Example of a good request:
Address: 0xAbC...123 Problem: I don't see 8LNDS in MetaMask after claim Details: I claimed 1,500 8LNDS at 14:35 on 03.06.2026. The transaction went through (basescan confirmation: 0x4f...). In MetaMask on the Base network the tokens are not displayed. The wallet is connected, the Base network is correct. Screenshot attached. Browser: Chrome, device: desktop.
With this information, support will resolve the issue in a single reply. With a message like "it doesn't work for me," it may take 3–5 exchanges to resolve the issue.

How NOT to Contact 8lends
Do NOT use
- Direct messages on Twitter/X — 8lends has no official DM support channel
- WhatsApp — 8lends does not use WhatsApp for support
- Discord — 8lends has no official Discord server. If someone invites you to an "official 8lends Discord", it's a scam
- Any email other than [email protected] — even similar ones ([email protected], [email protected]) may be phishing or non-existent
- Telegram bots — 8lends does not use bots for support
If someone contacts you first
8lends never writes first. If you received a message:
- "Hi, I'm an 8lends representative, I noticed a problem with your account" — scam
- "Urgently connect your wallet to this link for verification" — scam
- "Get a 1000 USDC bonus, go to this site" — scam
- "The 8lends team asks you to confirm your seed phrase for migration" — scam
More details
What 8lends Will NEVER Ask For
| What | Why |
|---|---|
| Seed phrase / private key | Never. To no one. This is your control over your funds |
| Password to your email or Telegram | Never. 8lends doesn't need access to your accounts |
| To transfer funds to a "verification" address | Never. Support doesn't deal with transfers |
| To install an extension or app | Never. All interactions go through app.8lends.io |
| To "urgently confirm" something via a strange link | Never. Urgency = a red flag of a scam |
If any of this was requested, it is a scam attempt, even if the person introduces themselves as a member of the 8lends team.
Response Time
| Channel | Standard time | If there's no response |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 24 hours on business days | Resend after 48 hours; in parallel via Telegram | |
| Telegram (Daniel/Ceviz) | Hours during working hours | If it's really urgent — both contacts simultaneously |
| Community chat | Minutes-hours (depends on activity) | Escalate to the personal channels |
The team's working hours are standard CET (Switzerland) hours / the corresponding time zone.
Escalation — If Standard Support Doesn't Help
- Clarify the problem in your first request (see the checklist above)
- Wait 24-48 hours via email
- Resend via Telegram (Daniel or Ceviz)
- If it's really urgent — in parallel to all channels marked "URGENT"
- If nothing helped — turn to the community Telegram chat with a detailed description (without sensitive data)
What to Do in Critical Situations
I think my wallet is hacked
- Urgently transfer the remaining funds to a new wallet (a new seed phrase)
- Notify 8lends via email + Telegram in parallel
- Do NOT continue using the old wallet for any operations
I sent funds to the wrong place
- First check on basescan.org exactly where they went
- If to an unsupported network — the funds are usually lost
- If to another EVM address — recovery is theoretically possible
- Notify support for advice — but don't expect recovery
I was attacked by an "8lends representative"
- Do NOT follow the links offered
- Do NOT connect your wallet to suspicious sites
- Do NOT give out any data
- Report it to Daniel/Ceviz on Telegram with screenshots — this will help protect others
Frequently Asked Questions
Which channel should I use first? Email [email protected] — this is the main channel. It's suitable for 95% of questions. Telegram is only for urgent matters or escalation.
How long until a reply? Up to 24 hours on business days via email. Telegram is usually faster during the team's working hours. If 48 hours have passed without a reply — resend via Telegram.
What language should I write in? English or Russian — both work. 8lends has an international team. In English the reply is usually faster.
What if I have a question outside working hours? You can write at any time — the reply will come during working hours. The community Telegram chat often responds 24/7 (other investors).
Is it safe to write with details about my investments? In email and personal Telegram — it's safe. This is private communication. In the general community chat — don't post specific amounts and wallet addresses with balances.
What should I do if support asks for additional KYC information? This is normal for large operations or non-standard situations. But verify that the request came from [email protected] (spelled correctly), and not from a similar email ([email protected]). If in doubt — ask Daniel or Ceviz on Telegram whether the request really came from them.
Can I request a call via Zoom/Teams? For large investors or business partnerships — yes, via [email protected] stating the purpose of the call. For standard questions — text correspondence is usually enough.
What if support doesn't resolve my question? Escalate: (1) provide additional details by email, (2) contact Daniel/Ceviz on Telegram in parallel, and (3) describe the situation in the community chat. If nothing helps — it may be a systemic platform problem, and it's worth notifying through all channels for priority.
How can I make sure I'm writing to the real Daniel or Ceviz on Telegram? Exact usernames: https://t.me/eightlends. Anyone else claiming to be "Daniel from 8lends" or "Ceviz 8lends admin" is fake. Keep in mind: real 8lends representatives don't write first — you write to them.
Can I get a personal contact for Maclear AG? For questions about collateral management or Swiss operations — reach out via [email protected], and they will switch you to the Maclear AG team if needed. Maclear AG's direct contacts are not published for direct communication with investors.
What if my question is legal in nature? Email [email protected] with "LEGAL" or "JURIDIQUE" in the subject. Legal questions (disputes, dispute resolution, regulatory matters) are handled by a separate team via the main email.
Can I get compensation for a delay in a support response? Standard SLAs for crypto platforms are no more than 48 hours for standard requests. Systematic violations of this deadline require escalation. Compensation (as with some fintechs) is usually not provided for crypto platforms — this is an area where requirements for response speed are evolving.
