Buying Bitcoin from Australia

[tank33]

Hi

I am trying to get into the world of cryptos but finding it very difficult to buy Bitcoins with the Australian Dollar.

I have registered on a number of sites, BTC Market, CoinJar, Coinbase, CoinSpot and so on.

Most of the registration is still pending verifications.

I have been verified on coinbase but stuck with A$250 WEEKLY limit.

Where do you guys from Australia buy either BTC or ETH using the Australian dollar?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

hey man try localbitcoins or localethereum, there should be people selling in aud but no sure about the rates
also check out lykke wallet

I'm afraid you really have to wait for the verification bud. Coinbase[1] is your best bet. Also like zzHQzz said, you can try out localbitcoins[2] especially if you wanted to pay with meetups instead and with cash instead of bank transfers. I really can't comment up on localethereum since I'm not sure if it has the same owner with localbitcoins and if it's trusted or not.

coinbase would be a good choice for you.

Try this site - it lists a number of exchanges in Australia:

Just select your country and payment method for a list of exchanges.

Just like to give heads up on CoinJar... Support sux,,, so Just be weary of this when getting involved.. They are starting to get  backed up with tickets and just not replying to people..
@GetCoinJar is losing customers fast .... @coinjarsupport @CoinJarSupport sux, get your S#%t together and reply to your customers.

Agree with this, the support is poor and sometimes takes month to solve things
