Same here verification still pending on Kraken and Bitstamp and it's been a week...

Anyway when I see how Kraken lags and crashes I'm not willing to invest $$ through this exchange. I live in the us but I'm a European citizen so maybe I should go for an exchange out of the us?

if you want to know where is the place that you can buy XRP using USD,
every exchanges have their own weakness and their own advantages.
for example Kraken,
their biggest weakness or problem is their website,
you can not make an action when the market move,because it will lead you to an error page.
but they did not do a shitty thing like others.

Thanks. I just want to buy Ripple and send straight  to my desktop wallet. Are there any fees with those exchanges ? Is there one that does not require verification as it's taking weeks?

Almost (if not all) exchanges will require verification if you want to deposit USD and buy using an USD pair. The easiest way would be to buy BTC (E.g: with Localbitcoins, which is anonymous and doesn't require verification) and send them to Binance (doesn't require verification aswell) to buy your XRP. If you still don't want to buy BTC and then trade, you will need to verify your accounts in those exchanges (and probably wait a little bit).

Thanks. I put Ireland as my country in Bitsane as I'm not a us resident. I will use my us credit card to deposit funds and they only charge 2%. Hope it works
