Title: Help, I don't use bitinstant and www.bitfloor.com is down..
Post by: Bill Paxton on April 22, 2013, 05:54 pm
I used to use bitinstant because I was a newb and didn't know any better.  I switched over to bitfloor and was very happy with their services.

I need a new website/company to use to get by cash deposit --> USD ---> BTC ---> SR account

I tried signging up for MTgox this morning but for some reason their shit is fucked up and I can't sign up for a new account. 

Can somebody suggest some sites that are trustworthy that I can use?? I liked bitinstant because they were quick and I could use cash + use their services 24/7 ... Bitfloor was great because I could depsosit cash locally, the only problem I had with them was that I had to then go onto their site, trade my USD for BTC THEN transfer them to my SR account... I didn't bother washing them because all fake names were used etc...

Any suggestions will help alot!! I've heard about loading up greenpak cards or something like that and using SR vender's to get BTC on SR?? Can anybody suggest vender's on here that do this as this is sounding like the best way to go at this point.

**I'm trying to deposit funds so I can place an order today!! Please help!!**

Hi,
I used localbitcoins.com or bitcoinlocal.com or someting like that to find someone to deal with PERSONALLY. Now I have gotten to know him, he is waaaay more accessible and waaay cheaper then using those services that ripped me off and left me swinging too many times. It's like Craigslist, and as always, with any of this..be careful
hope this helps

I use MtGox and have never had any problems. GBP payments though.
