Bitcoin debit card

PM sent. I tried withdrawing from bank POS, not ATM. According to E-coin card limits webpage, POS transactions should be unlimited and free.

Am I correct?

Yes, for POS transactions - no limits.

Are you sure this POS cannot be interpret as ATM? Because this is the only reasonable explanation. Could you provide more details about it?

Perhaps, if you would not mind to test - you can withdraw e.g. $1000, and I will check in transactions how it did show up - as ATM, or as POS?

Great, I'll test that on Monday morning. Also, please confirm if POS transactions are free.

OK, I'm off to bed now. 4 AM here

If you make them in your card's currency (USD) - then yes. No fees, nothing like that. You pay only the actual amount of your transaction.

If you make them in some other currency (any other than USD) - there is 3% Foreign Transaction fee.
ATM withdrawal fees are $2.5 for USD ATM, and $3,5 for ATM which give you cash in some other currency.

Looking forward for the results! and Have a lovely night!

Hello,

Yeah, we already have it in our feedback form for top up methods. As far as I know though, a small part about which services to user depends on E-Coin. This is organized by bank and their alliances with various payment systems.

But, yes. We are bringing this up on our meetings with them, and hope this service will be added one day. Though - no promises at the moment.

Hello Alena, I've withdrawn $2,000 (US dollars NOT local currency) from the card today at the Bank POS. Things I've noticed:

1. I can withdraw $1,000 per transaction, which is not right since I'm using POS and I should be able to withdraw any amount.
2. My transactions were taxed $2.5 each, yet they should have been free of charge.

Please check my transactions with the bank and let me know what the issue is.

UPDATE: I also get this error when using the "Maximum amount" feature to to load the card:

"Unexpected status code: BadRequest, content: {"result":{"fee":6160,"available":115294281},"message":"Insufficient funds"}"

I have funds in my account.

Verification is not working. Just tried to submit my documents and it returned no message after clicking on "Confirm". Also it didn't showed me any kind of error message.

Please fix this.

Tried a virtual card with Uber, I can add the card on the account but when I'm about to use it it says card details invalid. Any workaround on this? Thanks

[Kaostechno]

It's because E-Coin cards are enrolled as prepaid cards. Uber does not like prepaid cards, only debit or credit cards.

Anyone who has 2FA enabled on E-coin is getting the captcha to solve 2x. This is frustrating, pass + captcha + google auth + captcha, i grow a beard while i log in.

I second that. Kinda annoying to be honest.

Too bad, thought it was a way to directly get my BTC used for Uber. Going back to have them sent to my debit card then.

I have sent you more detailed PM, would just make a note here as well.

Those transactions were considered ATM ones, so corresponding limits and fees are applied. This is something coming from the bank and we cannot change this.

As for Maximum Amount. Iy may sometimes not work is the fluctuating blockchain fee. We "freeze" the BTC exchange rate for you when you are loading the card with BTC, but with transfers to other BTC wallets/addresses, the blockchain fee may change between the moments where you hit the "max amount" button and the moment of actual transfer transaction. An easy way to go around this is slightly reduce the amount just before clicking "confirm".

Hello all,

That was extra precaution against recent DDoS attack. I have asked to disable capture on Verification code screen at least, however not yet sure whether they can do that or not quickly, and when. Will keep you posted!

I am sorry I did not post anything here - happened past my shift.

The bank delayed the settlement which it should have sent on Monday, and we run out of USD and EUR as far as I know.

We hope the bank would be able to settle our account on Tuesday and the card load possibility would be restored.

I am sorry for the inconvenience.

Hello,

Your documents must be too big (I do not remember the exact limits unfortunately), please try to reduce their size and upload one more time. Should work.
