Post by: marvwebster on December 07, 2015, 08:08:30 AM
Newbie question.

I want to buy 10$ BTC and i can`t use Coinbase because of ID verification(i can`t upload ID .jpg file)
I`ve heard some bad reviews about Virwox.
Is CEX.IO legit?
Anyone buying BTC there?

I've been trading there for almost a year without any issues. However if you are planning to buy coins without verification using a reversible payment method things may get a little rough. Check -> https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/cex.io

You should check localbitcoins, or here in the forum in local board (even if you have one and you are not english native).
There you can find a lot of seller (trusted) that give you some instruction/hints to buy btc with your cash.
I hope you can get it quick ;)

Some localbitcoins sellers want to verify your identification. You have to upload a picture of your holding your ID and bank card.

What are those bad reviews you're getting on virwox? I used to buy indirectly some bitcoins there and I always have a smooth transaction. Their high fees suck though and I don't like it. Anyways cex.io is a legit site (based on reviews online), haven't tried it yet though.

I work with cex.io and i haven't any problem with them, its an exchange ,you can buy and sell bitcoins and other crypto coins like litecoins, dark coins, dogecoins... But you will need to register and get ID verification too if you want to load your account with credit card.

Yep! I guess they are legit. I have used their platform in the past and never had any issues. The only big problem they had was that they were forced to close their cloud mining services. And for trading you will probably do best with bitstamp or BTCchina since they charge lower fees.

You could try some other exchanges. In this forum there are also Trusted members who can help you trade them of for paypal.
Posting your message here is good, it's means you are carefull which you should be, too many bogus parties are associated with bitcoin.
