Buying burst/bitcoin
-
here use this link and sign up for coinbase
-
@mathew Oh, I almost forgot I hear that paypal hate crytocurrencies and they may ban account use to buy them. This hasn't happened top myself but something to be mindful of.
-
@Njcfamily31907 I already have coinbase but they reject my card as its a prepaid and I don't want to pay with my bank account

Many pre-paid cards can not be used for cash advances and that is what Paypal is considered. It's annoying as hell, one of my vendors send me a Pre-Paid every 3 months for services but I can't use it with paypal, I have to either use it with amazon or someone else that excepts Visa. One option would be to setup a square account. I have done this because it's the only way I could drain out my prepaid cards prior to expiration; it costs me 1.5% of the value but atleast I get my money out. I started this right afer I lost $180 on a prepaid due to expiration. But then your money is in Fiat and you have to convert that some how.

@IceBurst Would you be willing to buy my visa card for $400 bitcoin? I have $400 on the card.

Maybe my post wasn't very clear, but I personally dislike pre-paid gift cards but I find they can be difficult to use or unload.
-Sorry

@IceBurst damn alright, can't find anyone or any exchange that will accept them or I have to have my paypal verified.

@mathew check localbitcoins.com... people there sell and buy BTC from credit and debit cards transfers so maybe you get lucky in there?! xD
-
@gpedro Most of them require a id to be shown and I don't want to do that as that is just complicated, I just want to buy bitcoin
-
@mathew with localbitcoins.com you are not forced to confirm anything besides an e-mail i think... Then you can confirm your phone and ID too but it's not required, at least i don't have nothing confirmed besides the e-mail and already made some sells in there xD

@Njcfamily31907 ; NOt really very impressed with Coinbase security practice anymore. Coinbase couldn't help when my account was hit a couple of weeks ago and 1.2BTC was stolen.
-
@eyajuda I have never had a problem with them
-
You are lucky.
I have moved to blockchain.info feel much better and safer. You won't believe google.com sensed the attack and halted and lock my account, for the real owner to initiate recovery. That's what I call security and customer protection. Blockchain.info is like that.
