Recently, the option to trade and withdraw (!!!) Monero was suddenly gone for about a day without a word from them on what is going on. I would stay away.
AFAIK they had issues with their monero node sync and it has been solved. I had a warning on kycnot.me for this, but I have now just removed it since I just tested and I was able to withdraw and exchange XMR just fine.
Also, for what I know, they had a ddos attack and their site was unresponsive (for what I also put a warning on kycnot.me the moment I became aware of the issue), seems like the attack is over, as the site was responsive when I was testing a few hours ago.
I would avoid because we are unsure of their status as to whether they are still active or have tried to exit scam. Haveno is your best option.
Edit: if you have no Monero at all use trocador.app to convert a small bit of BTC to at least 0.11 XMR using an instant exchange. Once done then use Haveno.
