Title: Buying BTC with debit cards through Virwox
Post by: Hydrogen on February 05, 2016, 04:09:37 AM
Has anyone used this method, recently?

Its been awhile since I've bought BTC with a debit card, is there a better method available?

Have only used virowax to empty a defunct skrill account and charges where gross. They also hold 48 hours on new accounts. Never tried debit would try localbitcoin instead.

Their fees are horrible, and I never understood how Virwox is protected from chargebacks. (Edit) Oops... can a debit card user try to chargeback, when the transaction is not using the "credit card brand" function?
re: Localbitcoin you would need a seller who is willing and able to accept your card, most would expect cash.

I used before Neteller or E-coin (can't remember which one of them) on Virwox.com and worked just fine . I didn't have any issues.
However the fees sucks so if you are okay with them then you should use their services , otherwise just stay away .

C-Cex, much easier and less expensive option. Also Payza and Solid Trust Pay let you use your debit card to buy BTC. However, all 3 options require you to get verified.

I used it once, it's very expensive IMO, you buy a good price and pay fees around 2-3 times. actually you pay %40 fees if I calculate it correctly.

I do agree with you and I used this same way for myself and bought bitcoins on very affordable price.  I would recommend to all fo happycoins way if anyone wants to go for purchase of more bitcoins. Bit coins are a good source of financial growth but it makes us more happier if get a chance to buy on nice prices.

Sincerely i don't understand why people do not use a lot more service like happycoins,it's instant! maybe it doesnt have solid advertising

I think using debit card itself is not a viable option for buying bitcoins unless you come from a country where there are no related services at all.Online Bank Transfer or using other online Payment wallets can give you good rates and very less service fees.One of the safest way to buy them is at LocalBitcoins if you have online banking services activated ,you can get good rates of buying from peers and very less service fees.
