Bitcoin Forum

Hi All,

I'm new to this whole Bitcoin thing, but I love the concept!  I have downloaded a Wallet and registered with Mt. Gox and Bitmarket (so far) and am keen to buy some bitcoins.  However, it seems so difficult to do. Is there anywhere online where I can buy bitcoins from a trusted organisation with a Credit Card or Paypal?  Am I missing something?  By the way, I assume Dwolla only works in the USA - is that correct?

Any help/advice/reassurance most welcome,

Cheers,

Madrigal

MtGox doesn't take paypal or credit cards.  A roundabout way is to go through VirWoX exchange.  You can buy linden dollars (SLL) with paypal or credit card with several currencies.  Then you can buy bitcoins with the SLL.  Otherwise, you can check out bitinstant.com that has various transfer options.  And Dwolla is only in the US.  Good luck.

Thanks for the advice - I'll give it a go!

OK, I visited bitinstant.com, but it doesn't seem to list paypal as a payment option or allow the use of cards - is that right?

Also, can one send Bitcoins from Virwox to my Wallet??

It doesn't look like bitinstant takes paypal.

You can withdraw from VirWoX to any bitcoin address.  They charge a fee of 0.02 BTC per withdraw.

How to buy Bitcoins with a credit card:

https://solidtrustpay.com/fees.php

Then from Solid Trust Pay there is no fee when sending to Mt. Gox.

For Paypal, it's a two or three step process.

Hope this helps.

Edit: Solid Trust Pay to Mt. Gox is handled by AurumXchange. Verify with AurumXchange before making any purchases.

Edit2: 2/23/2012 - Solid Trust Pay to Mt. Gox exchanges at AurumXchange should resume in a week or so, contact AurumXchange for updates.

Yeah, I agree.  SLL/VirWoX works pretty well, but if you are in a hurry, the fees/rates are pretty steep.

If you're in Europe, http://Bitcoinmarket24.com may be an option for you if you're looking for instant delivery of BTC. We're not offering CC or PP purchases though.

The commission for real world currency to bitcoin is so crazily high..

Ive done numerous international wire transfers to mtgox to buy BTC and never had any issues.... nothing complicated about that!

Thanks for all you comments guys - much appreciated.  Cablepair offered to sell me some if i can get him cash over the net  - but that is not proving easy due to European Banking Regs.  I must say, it's easier to trade gold - but I'll keep trying!

Is realgg.nl for real?

I'm ok paying 10% fees - but is the site legit/kosha/for real?

Anyone know?

Try Dialcoin if your country supports it.

Thanks - but it doesn't support the UK:(

I think Intersango is based in the UK.  Not endorsing them since I have never traded through them, but it might be an option for you.

I've updated post #6

Try https://www.bitinstant.com/ I don't quite remember the fees but you can instantly buy however much btc you want.

You can buy BTC from bitinstant?

Can anyone confirm that the site is ok? Or have anyone been scammed by them?
THe site looks pretty good but as we all know that doesn't mean a sh**
I am looking for an exchanger which changes Ukash>BTC or at least Ukash>LR

Regards

Hi, Check the reviews here on the forum

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=67004.msg779909#msg779909

And on myn website!

http://realgg.nl/index.php/exchange-service/164-ukash-to-bitcoin



;)

If you really want to buy BitCoins instatnly, by using paypal and such, check out virvow (google it)

it's originally a USD>SLL (second life money) But you can trade SLL for BTC there too. Downside to this is that there's alot of fees included (PayPal>VirVox wallet, USD>SLL, SLL>BTC, BTC>BTC wallet)

I buy BTC for about $80 a time and end up paying about $.40-50 more than current market value per BTC.

Use bank transfers at https://intersango.com/fees.php
Low fees.

http://sms2btc.co.uk Does, and until 6th of March, there's a 100% bonus (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=64793.msg773593#msg773593) as well, so virtually no fees for mobile payment to btc (for a limited offer).

i might be to help you  :)

You can look at  the comments from others here or on my website, some people complains, but some of them  are the scammers them self and try to give me a bad reputation because they cant scam me or something.

I set up Bitcoin-otc yesterday now i figer out how it works, and build up some trust over there, i will post  my stat page later on!

Cheers

 Hello!
Could someone help me? I am a beginner.  4 days ago I got a wallet on Instawallet. org and this wallet had certain Bitcoin adress  for receiving money. I gave that adress to Financial Company, exchanging currency, to transfere some money in Bitcoins to this wallet. They transfered money 11 hours ago and I checked this transaction on  Bitcoin Charts and blockchain.info.  This transaction has been completed. But when I get into my wallet I find that "Balance -0 Bitcoins"  and I see that Bitcoin adress for receiving money has changed. Why is that? Can I do something about that?

If you don't mind paying the $1 or $2 extra to cover seller's fees, there are always bitcoins on eBay.

I have just launched a new retail Bitcoin exchange QwickBit.com (http://QwickBit.com) which accepts credit cards. We charge 6%, and you must have a valid Facebook account. All transactions are processed instantly, and you can get your Bitcoins within a couple hours!

Has anyone tried using the qwickbit.com?  Any thoughts on this?

Did you received your Bitcoins yet? Where did you exhcange money for Coins?


Most of the times it takes up tu 2/4 hours to receive Bitcoins on your Online Wallet.
A private wallet is faster if your wallet is 100% connexted whit all the peers.

For security reasons evry time you receive bitcoins on a Btc Address your Btc Address changes Automaticly.

 :)

aleha, I recommend you check your browser history. Instead of a password, the unique URL you get when you visit instawallet is how you access your BTC. If that URL is in your browser history (or if you use IE, in Content.IE5\index.dat) then you can get your bitcoins back.

One time I had a customer that uses instawallet i sended bitcoins to his Btc address, he lost his Btc Url to and dind't know what to do, first he thought i scmmed him, i said to him he must check his browser hiostory for the lost url from instawallet. He find his url and saw his bitcoins waiting!

Problem solved

Hier hätten sie schon bemerken müssen das die Währung nicht stimmt., obwohl ich GBP gewählt hatte.. Euro-Währung kann nicht mit 633 beginnen
stattdessen bekomme ich die meldung der vouvher sei nicht gültig.. nach einem langen telefonat mit Ukash hat man herausgefunden das dieser Code unmittelbar nach übermittlung eingelöst würde...
Dieses Geld war eigentlich dazu gedacht von ihnen auf mein Paypalkonto zu überweisen, gegen gegühr versteht sicht!!!!!
ist nie angekommen... daraufhin hat man mich bei Ukash explicit vor Ihnen gewarnt..

And if i say that your 20 GBP, Euro or what ever is not valid than he is not valid!! Why must i Scamm somebody for 20 Euro?? I handle Big Ukash orders whit good trused customers evry day whitout any probs!

And once again i never received any Emails from you!?
