Is "Circle" a good place to buy Bitcoin?

[Rmcdermott927]

Circle is great for BTC but they have a lot of rules.   Be sure to consult their TOS.  Their support also takes a while for certain requests.   However, I use them all the time and really like the service a lot.   Very low fees.

I killed my circle account after waiting 10 days for support to tell me why they could not verify my account.

Hello Bitcointalk.org forum. i am new to Bitcoin so i am here to ask all of you a question. Is "Circle" a good website to purchase Bitcoins? Are they legitimate? If i do manage to purchase some Bitcoin where is the best place to keep my shiny new purchased coins?

Thanks everyone

Circle is legit. I prefer Coinbase, but I've heard mostly good things about Circle. Haven't heard any serious allegations against them either. They have some big names behind them.

As for what to do afterwards -- get yourself a good desktop wallet (Bitcoin QT, Electrum, Multibit) and read up on how to keep it safe.

perhaps because you're not a usa citizent? there are some restriction if you live outside of usa, they need to implement those yet, this is the case if you'd attached a bank account to your circle account, but i've heard that their support isn't very good

I haven't added a bank account to my cirle account, but they did seem friendly towards non-us users. I managed to profit from their $5 signup bonus, using my EU cellphone...
