Hello my fellow Bitcoin nerds.

I have a problem, I'm still slightly troubled on where to cash out.

I made a thread on here requesting UK Bank Transfer only and recieved 3-4 PM's from people with broken English which were obviously not from the UK and trying to scam me......

I don't really want to have to set up a LocalBitcoin selling account just to sell 1 BTC here 1 BTC there.... hassle!?!

I wouldn't mind purchasing bullion if the site was reputable and in the UK!

I dream of a site like CoinBase but like the UK..

So... where should I go if I don't want to be scammed and recieve funds in my bank account!

The UK is a shocking backwater compared to most places for Bitcoin exchange.

Bitstamp will be pretty rapid but the money goes through two currency changes, albeit with a good exchange rate at their end.

Bittylicious is keen for sellers and it seems to be less hassle than localbitcoins overall. I think we may be in for a fairly lengthy wait for something that just works.

localbitcoins always works a charm for me. Never had any problems. Funds deposited straight to your bank account.

localbitcoins tends to have lovely UK prices, sucks to buy but great for cashing out.  There's normally a reputable buyer on no matter what time of day.

I'll have to take a look at the buyers on LocalBitcoins, I'll probably go with someone with good feedback.

Is there any fee's I have to pay to sell? I'd rather split it down to 100 quid transactions since UK-BT is free a nd instant!

I'd say find a trusted member on this forum and trade with them - just beware of the incredible number of scammers out there!

I ended up using LocalBitcoins, I didn't know it was so easy!

I used 2-3 sellers instead of going balls to the wall with one and got all 3 payments!
