London, 24th June 2014. People in the UK can again buy Bitcoins with cash on Bittylicious after its service is resumed.

http://blog.bittylicious.com/

Bittylicious has relaunched a service which enables prospective buyers to purchase Bitcoins by handing over cash at any one of over 20,000 ZipZap locations in the country. The process is very simple, and any user that has had their identity documents verified by Bittylicious can obtain Bitcoins this way.

ZipZap has partnered with a new payment provider, Payzone, which provides the infrastructure which takes payments at many locations across the UK, serving almost every village.

Users simply need to choose how many Bitcoins they want, locate a local payment centre within the Bittylicious website and print off a payment slip to show to the cashier. Alternately, as long as the barcode is clearly available, they can show this to the cashier on a mobile device. The payment centres are typically small supermarkets and other local shops. Within a few minutes of the payment being taken, the Bitcoins are released into the buyer’s Bitcoin wallet.

In the near future, it will also be possible to buy a variety of altcoins, such as Litecoins, Feathercoins and Dogecoins, for cash using the Bittylicious service.

Not sure if this belongs here unless a news source reports it. Linking to your own blog seems just like an advert to me.

Oh right, I didn't realise that.

Bittylicious is mentioned on the PR at http://finance.yahoo.com/news/buy-cash-anywhere-zipzap-expands-123000852.html but that might not cut it either as the PR itself isn't the same. Happy for a mod to delete if appropriate.

I'm sure the mods will move it if it's wrong. You could move it yourself though I think.

I'd just update the OP & title to reference the Yahoo article & it should be fine.

Glad to hear bitcoins are easy for people to purchase in the UK!

Coinbase for selling BTCs
Fold for spending BTCs
PM me with any questions on these sites/apps!  http://www.montybitcoin.com


or Vircurex for trading alt cryptocurrencies like DOGEs
CoinNinja for exploring the blockchain.
