Does any coin exchange take debit/credit cards? I've made my large transfers by bank wire over the last 6 months but if I can find a place that takes debit/credit cards it would be easier.

No.

Why? Chargeback scam

They send you money, you give them btc, they ask for chargeback, they keep the money AND the btc and you nothing.

I thought so, I was heavy into forex trading 3 years a go and any company exchanging debit/credit cards was a identity fraud scam, my bank now refuses to wire money to gold exchanges now.

Is there another way to transfer debit cards into coins or is just not going to happen? I'd much rather use debit cards than my bank account.

Probably not. You could use your debit card to purchase a Monypak card, and then sell the Moneypak card for bitcoins. Be sure to provide a receipt with the card code if you are going to do that.

There is a green dot/money pak scam going around so I don't trust it. Liberty Reserve and Western Union are havens for scam's and criminals. There is not much available for large anonymous buying, that's why I asked about debit cards you can load them with out I.D.

Indirectly. Dwolla will take money straight from your bank account. It usually take about 4-5 days. Then you transfer to Mt. Gox. This takes 30 Minutes. Then buy bitcoins on Mt. Gox. (instant if you buy above ask)

I have had 5 transactions already and it works great everytime.
