Post by: scribe on May 16, 2013, 08:59:59 AM Used a couple of times as a seller, no problems - mostly through web, and may have tried the SMS out just to check but can't remember. Helpful for newbies to the site as it obviously increases trust, but I still like face-to-face to get a good idea of whether the other party is reliable.

Yeah, the escrow service is pretty reliable and safe I believe, I haven't heard anything bad about them. Title: Re: How's the escrow service on LocalBitcoins? Post by: Lethos on May 16, 2013, 04:31:40 PM As a BTC seller, I've found it to be good standard service. It is very quick and reliable, no issues there.
It's rare that it's not used. Title: Re: How's the escrow service on LocalBitcoins? Post by: DannyHamilton on May 16, 2013, 10:16:53 PM They have two services. They have an "escrow" service for online transactions, and the have a "transaction service" for face-to-face transactions (sort of a stripped down escrow).
I've never used the "escrow" service, but I've used the "transaction service" several times and never had an issue with it. |
