Title: Anonymously converting physical £'s to Bitcoins.
Post by: Al4np47n3 on April 30, 2012, 11:13 am
Sup

Been looking into this for awhile here s what I ve found so far.

Intersango has a Metro bank account which I could feasibly put cash into, but they only have branches in London for the cost of what i am doing its not worth the expense of getting there.

Mt Gox has a Barclays Bank Account, went today and the teller told me its not valid.  Re checked the details i had written down and they were as they appear on the Mt Gox site, lost all faith in dealing with them as this seems highly unprofessional and a bit shady.

Ukash to bitcoins seems like scammer heaven, all google searches i ve done have led me to just scam artists and the few reputable money changers on here have said they wont do it, which tbh I can understand.

I appreciate that the bitcoin encryption is meant to be solid etc but I am not enjoying whacking unaccounted cash into my bank then transferring that day and repeating week after week.

Anyone got a good method for doing what it says in the title, namely ANONYMOUSLY getting physical £'s to bitcoins?

PS for any scammers browsing this I wont be going to any shady reagnn.nl or whatever it is and giving you Ukash numbers so gtfo.

All help much appreciated.

Just to update my apologies to Mt Gox is fine to deposit to with the details they gave on their Barclays account, unfortunetly I dealt with an inept idiot teller who told me that the details were invalid when they CATEGORICALLY ARE CORRECT.
