Title: bank american!
Post by: Bobderp on February 23, 2012, 07:56 pm
I plan to buy BTC using get-bitcoin.com, using the payment method of Bank of America deposit, cash.

What information do I need to bring to the BoA store other than the Account Number/Account Holder name?
Is there an age requirement?
Can I do this via ATM?

Please help!

Can't do it via ATM, but there should not be an age requirement.  All you're doing is making a cash deposit to the account of Get-Bitcoins.  Last time I did it I just walked in and laid down my money with the deposit slip.  No ID required. 

Hint: to speed things along I scanned a copy of the deposit receipt and attached it to an e-mail to Get-Bitcoins.  That way they have more proof that I deposited the cash.  Last time I used Get-Bitcoins there was no confirmation e-mail from them and it took almost a day before I saw my Bitcoins.  A little nerve wracking but it all worked out in the end.
