Title: is there any bitcoin trading market in UK that can support uk bank payment
Post by: entomology on December 14, 2015, 02:27:18 PM
Hi, Does anybody know that if there is any bitcoin trading market in UK that can support uk bank payment? I've tried cryptopay before, but it can not support uk bank fast payment these days. since they have difficulty to find a suitable bank partner. so is there any other trading market to buy btc with uk bank fast payment? Or there is no possibility since no bank can accept bitcoin.

Localbitcoins is probably the closest you will get in the uk. Basically you do a direct bank transfer with whoever your buying btc from and your btc is held in escrow by localbitcoins untill you pay.

AFAIK there is 2 major p2p trading sites... Localbitcoins and Bitbargain. Bitbargain is almost always overpriced though.

The other exchanges are very very strict in terms of buying BTC, AML and KYC in the UK so they require lots and lots of ID.

Good luck.

Yep... i had trouble trying to buy BTC in the UK with major exchanges, they're just way too strict in terms of depositing and withdrawing fiat currency. That's why I recommend you to use Localbitcoins.

You mean like: bitbargain.co.uk or coinbase.com
coinbase accept uk bank transfer
bitbargain is better, it has a more market feel, and the users must compete to get the lowest rice.

bitcoinbase is a good site, but I can not add my payment card since my bank card does not support sepa (can only used within uk, i contact with custom service with it). bitbargain price seems not so good as well (now the best price for 1 btc is 303£). anyway, thank you for your recommendation.

Tanks for your infor. I'll try it, but I'm afraid the payment of pound will also be problem (only within UK which is very strict ).

I'm pretty sure coinbase don't accept UK bank transfers.  Or actually I think they do but there was a fee or something.

Take a look at coinfloor.co.uk They have good liquidity in BTCGBP. I do trade BTCEUR at that exchange and it is very good.

Coinbase might be good for you, they now accept bank transfers and faster payments, you are limited initially on how much you can purchase but that increases over time.

I've tried yesterday, coinbase still can not support uk local bank transfer service. it needs sepa transfer.

Coinbase still doesn't support UK customers READ HERE (https://support.coinbase.com/customer/portal/articles/1963534-payment-methods-for-uk-customers). I'm surprised nobody recommended PAXFUL (https://paxful.com/) I had to wait 5 business day for coinbase to verify my bank account, which was way to long for me, so I used paxful to find a BTC seller. I had my coins within an hour.
