Title: Looking to get debit card from SEPA bank
Post by: CryptoPanda on April 15, 2014, 11:24:22 AM
There are few companies that provide debit cards that you can fund with bitcoins already but their fees are either outrageous or they are fishy.
So, I was thinking, if one gets debit card from any SEPA enabled bank (I guess most banks in EU will do?) and just sells at bitstamp and orders wire, you should get the money within hours, right?
It will be a tad slower but you get a fair market rate for your bitcoins.

If there is no problem to that that i'm missing, then I would ask for your recommendation for bank where one can open account online and get the debit card mailed.

SEPA transfer is not instant. You'll probably have to wait 24h/48h but I haven't tested.

" you should get the money within hours, right?

"

Did you just glimpse at my post and missed that part?


p.s.
generally they should be done within 24 hours, often less

I read

So yeah but I think I'll probably be 24h so it's a day not few hours IMO. (Haven't tested).

your recommendation for bank where one can open account online and get the debit card mailed.

It depend of your country of residence.
