AFAIK, they operate from Singapore. So why applying for Banking license at New York ? Is it the case that the journo confused BitLicense with Banking License ?

No idea why they're applying for a license in NY.  I guess a banking license includes most (if not all) requirements of a BitLicense, but allows for more different types of financial services. I don't think the Reuters journalist mixed them up:

I didn't know about Ljubljana having 50+ merchants - it's just a 200km drive for me.

Many of you (myself included) ordered a NET+ card and now we cannot use our bitcoins to fund it. I'm offering to fund my account with bitcoin and forward the money to your NETELLER which will hopefully make the funds available for your card transactions.

Fees

None, because:

* I cannot guarantee that this actually works
* despite being a member for years I don't have any trade feedback on bitcointalk (escrow is possible) - please leave feedback if you're satisfied

Limitations

* only round sums like 10 EUR, 20 EUR, 30 EUR, ....
* only possible when I'm online (Skype: chmod755.) and my limits are not reached

Ex-JPMorgan exec staffing up new Bitcoin business



Blythe Masters is hiring.

The former JPMorgan executive — who left the bank last year amid a government inquiry into the commodities division she once helmed — hired Beth Shah, an editor at an industry magazine, to run business development at her new Bitcoin business.

Shah, previously an editor at GlobalCapital Derivatives, started this month at Digital Asset Holdings, Masters’ newest venture, according to Shah’s LinkedIn profile.

The 46-year-old banker is widely credited as one of the chief inventors of the credit-default swap — a complex financial instrument that contributed to the 2008 financial crisis and the government bailout of American International Group, among others.

In 2013, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission said that Masters made “false and misleading statements” about the bank’s commodities division, which she was then leading, amidst a price-rigging probe.

Combining JPMorgan’s commodities businesses was “probably the greatest achievement for me,” Masters told Shah for a 2,355-word profile last year.

Masters left the bank after it sold some of its business to Mercuria Holdings.

Shah and Digital Asset Holdings didn’t respond to requests for comment.

You can waste your time and energy hating others if you want.

I'm too busy with my own life to hate anyone really.

Haters gonna hate.

You didn't read the OP did you?

I did.

I don't agree on giving a negative for backing out of terms of an escrow. There was no Bitcoin/information stolen. Because someone disagrees on terms doesn't mean it merits a negative rating. At most I would put a neutral with a warning that a successful escrow wasn't completed (even though that's probably not needed)  So, I don't think it's the correct decision to give a negative for simply backing out of a deal. Yes it's not very professional or ideal for the buyer/seller but it doesn't seem like any damage was done or there was any intent of a malicious action.

It is a trust system - not a trade feedback system - you can trust or distrust anyone for any reason.

Doesn't this affect the future reputation of all three parties here (buyer, seller, escrow)?

It looks like it's only an issue between OP and Quickseller and if it's a problem for anyone else it's still in the wrong forum section.

Sei vorsichtig mit PayPal - vor allem beim Verkauf von BTC.

PayPal sperrt dein Konto wenn die erfahren, dass du Bitcoins handelst.

Good luck with your business @ OP.

THIS IS NOT A SCAM ACCUSATION

Why did you think it's a good idea to post it here? That sounds more like a "Service Discussion" to me.

IMO ratings should be discussed via PM unless there's an issue affecting more than 2 BCT members.
1180  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How chargebacks via PayPal come about? on: April 13, 2015, 06:08:46 AM
I've done many transactions over the last few months using PayPal both buying and selling at LBC, And have had absolutely no problems.

Have I just been lucky?

Either your risk management is very good or you've just been lucky - keep in mind that a chargeback could happen 180 days after you made a transaction.
