Title: buy.bitcoin.com works OK. Expensive, but it works. Post by: OROBTC on November 18, 2016, 03:49:45 AM ...
Today I tested out this service, to pay for BTC with a credit (debit) card. Yes, it worked just fine. It is kind-of expensive for an online service, but it works (I am an American here in the USA): https://buy.bitcoin.com/ Fees: Simplex: 5.0% bitcoin.com: 2.5% (minimums apply) You need email access and your smartphone (SMS message).

I've seen worse rates after they know what blood type I am, my mother's maiden name and a stool sample. Thanks for the info, I hadn't noticed this service before.

7.5% is not expensive for laundering stolen credit cards, it's very cheap actually. Usually this kind of services take up to 30% and go to great lengths to identify the user, how long will these guys operate with this kind of fees and procedures? Title: Re: buy.bitcoin.com works OK.

I have some question: How many bitcoin do they have left ? or they have unlimited Bitcoin for customers to buy ? The price is not very high actually. The price is here cheaper than my local bitcoin selling service. Well, if I have an international debit card, I will consider to buy some bitcoin here

If you are a EU/US resident, you can buy small amounts of coins but other countries are insta-declined. That service is nice if you do not care about your privacy or coins spending tractability. We will offer a better solution soon :) Title: Re: buy.bitcoin.com works OK. Expensive, but it works. Post by: OROBTC on November 18, 2016, 08:27:55 PM ...
More comments in reply to the above remarks. The process was fairly quick. After they OK'd the transaction, I had to leave (a wifi place in my city). By the time I got home (40 mins.), the BTC were in my wallet (and they were mixed via bitmixer.io as well). My transaction was small, so I paid more than 7.5% (hence my observation above about minimums). 7.5% would be the total fees if buying something like $200 worth. simplex, yes. But, the BTC ATM I bought from the other day collected my smartphone data as well. I have no idea how many BTC they have left. Again, I bought fairly small (to test the service). My credit card was not a stolen one. I have used it to buy BTC from other services in the past. * * * BuySomeBitcoins: better solutions are always welcome. Show us one!
