I am wondering what is the easiest, most cost effective way of getting Bitcoins in the UK?
-
localbitcoins.com
Find a seller who's selling at a reasonable price, read their ad and check their feedback, many accept uk bank transfer or pingit.
Hope this helps! :-)

Easiest? Bitbargain
Most cost effective... hmm, if you use bitstamp . net or mtgox you will have to pay bank transfer fees which can be quite high. You may get a good offer with localbitcoins but you are taking more of a risk IMO meeting someone face to face..
I'd say bitbargain is the best toss up between speed and cost.

Yeah I second localbitcoins.com
You can also look for traders that accept barclays bank transfer, and go and pay cash at the counter into their account to create less paper-trail!
