Title: Coinbase and Credit cards Post by: wermoee on October 13, 2013, 09:43:00 PM So i was fully verified user till now and wanted get back my instant function to work and tried to link my card,but was frustrated with the system's message:"Debit cards currently not supported.This credit card type is not supported at this time.". So if you link some it should be credit?
Didn't know that? Any comments,Coinbase? Olaf? Title: Re: Coinbase and Credit cards Post by: joesmoe2012 on October 13, 2013, 11:58:28 PM I think they had problems with fraud, so they are using credit cards as backup funding for instant coin purchases.

Title: Re: Coinbase and Credit cards Post by: jratcliff63367 on October 14, 2013, 11:52:27 PM I don't get all this criticism of coinbase. People gotta see this through their eyes. The number of people trying to rip them off must be overwhelming. I have bought all of my bitcoins through them at competitive prices and, since I'm a long-term investor not a day trader, I haven't had any issues with waiting for my bitcion to come through. I always get it at the price when I placed the order. I don't know why so many people are so impatient when they must realize that coinbase has to interact with the absolutely obnoxious existing banking system and fiat regulatory environment.
If you want instant gratification of cash for bitcoins, do it in person.

Called my bank and they say that all the transcations are cancelled because they are "quasi cash" which is not allowed by them.So WTF? Can anyone confirm it or tell me what to do? I've got several another credit cards but all of them are mastercard,so i can't solve this problem.

I suggest using another Bank or Credit Union. So far I haven't had a problem using Citi Bank.
