Title: Looking for a service that lets me buy BTC with SMS/calling from UK
Post by: film2240 on March 05, 2012, 11:21:14 PM
Hi
I'm looking for a service that lets me buy BTC with SMS and making a phone call to a number.I need a service that takes SMS/calls from UK as dialcoin stopped working with UK and I wish to obtain a few via SMS from UK.

Thanks

It's probably best if posters just list what they know fits these requirements or is international if not UK (but one of these must accept from UK) as this could be a long thread otherwise.

I already mentioned that they stopped working for UK for some reason.I know that the rates seem a lot higher than they should but then again this is only for testing purposes Psy.Thanks for your feedback so far. :)

There are two that I know of

textcoin.co.uk and

http://bitcoinmarket24.com (change payment method to mobile payment)

it's something like 0.8 BTC for a 5UKP; 1.6 for 10UKP (apparently a significant proportion of the cost goes to the carrier._

search for bitcoinmarket24 somewhere in the last week they offered double the purchase, but I can't remember if that was immediate, limited to 5 only, or you had to pm them.

In all seriousness I could send you an sms number and code and sell you 1 bitcoin but you would pay £10 for little more than 1 bitcoin...

If you have a Barclays account you can use their new Pingit mobile payment (via SMS) service  to transfer GBPs Person-to-Person for the purchase of bitcoins.  Anyone in the U.K. can receive your Pingit payment, regardless of where they bank.  The funds received by them can then be withdrawn to their bank once they register.

Consider placing an offer to buy here with this method or placing an offer on the #bitcoin-otc marketplace for it.
