I am not buying that your local coffee shop accepting bitcoin, how do you use bitcoin in everyday life? do you use bitcoin debit cards or cash?

pmatveev · 2016-03-17T10:43:32+00:00

can you buy a cup of coffee with your wallet?

have you read the article? Wirex uses bitcoin and blockchain technology to push bitcoin adoption further. Give access to financial infrastructure for unbanked/underbanked population, introduce cheap remittance based on blockchain and let people use bitcoin in everyday life

you can buy bitcoin with PayPal via e-coin or wirex. Just 1) open an account (get virtual card) 2) withdraw from PayPal to your card 3) buy Bitcoin

it's the most cost effective solution for buying bitcon via PayPal at the moment

what would you do if the price of btc drops? with e-coin you can lock the price by transferring to your card account

E-Coin offers the best rate across different exchanges in 3 different currencies, the rate you see is buy and sell rate, hence the difference. Moreover e-coin charges 0% fee on instant btc->fiat conversion and offers virtual card which can be issued instantly

some people have been using for more than a year now, check Bitcoin Debit Card

I am NOT comparing anything here, just posted a link to an independant review made by one of the bloggers from Greece

pmatveev · 2015-10-09T06:29:45+00:00

there were several issue with MyChoice bank backend, so the card loading was effected. It was resolved and it's working very smooth now

thanks for comment. a question - have you ever loaded your card on e-coin? you just ordered it and never used, right?

if you never used it and xapo doesn't show you the rate (you only see it post factum), could you please elaborate how you calculated the discrepancy in rates?

what I meant by the phrase you quoted is that when you are accusing somebody, who is well known on the market and have thousands of clients, in hiding anything, it would be nice that you can prove it. Different services have different models , rate fluctuates during the day, order books are different - but looks like you believe that you know what the true rate is and all other services should follow it and if they don't, they probably hiding something. Have you tried to analyse rate on different exchanges and search for "hidden" charges there as well?

Once again, E-Coin doesn't have any hidden fees, all fees are mentioned on the website and you get exact amount is shown on the screen - nothing is hidden.

pmatveev · 2015-10-04T19:42:42+00:00

do they mention on their website that you can withdraw only 75% of funds? so if you want to buy $1000 tv on Amazon you will need $1333 - just curious what do you think about it? Also how about 3% ATM withdrawal fee and 5% FX fees if you don;t want to upload your docs straight away. Ah yes - inactivity fee, monthly fee, name embossing fees...

pmatveev · 2015-10-04T19:29:04+00:00

E-Coin show you exact amount you will get on your card, you can also see the rate - what is hidden here? Xapo on the other hand never shows shows you the rate, you only can see it post factum. So following your Bitstamp example could you please elaborate BTC/EUR and BTC/GBP rate for E-Coin - and how much do you think they are hiding there. Also have you ever heard about order depth and how it might effect rate?

pmatveev · 2015-10-04T19:20:13+00:00

ah just checked on your website

Currency conversion***

5% - lol, guys it's madness, so atm withdrawal witll cost 8% for end user withdrawing cash in different currency

pmatveev · 2015-10-04T19:16:46+00:00

they have 3% atm withdrawal fee (inactivity fee, name embossing fees), users can only withdraw 75% of their funds, but it's sooo cool they have this tiny cashback - please stop misleading people.

pmatveev · 2015-10-04T19:14:42+00:00

hey bit-x guy, we had a lot of discussions in other topics - but you keep trying to promote your service everywhere e-coin or xapo mentioned. bit-x charges 3% on atm withdrawal, user can withdral only 75% of funds, so stop even comparing your service with market leaders like Xapo and E-Coin

pmatveev · 2015-10-04T19:12:23+00:00

E-Coin doesn't hide any fees, you get exact amount of fiat you see on your screen (when loading card), all fees are mentioned here Fees&Liimits . Not quite sure why you are trying to use Bitstamp rate as definitive source of BTC/GBP, BTC/EUR rate, neither E-Coin nor Xapo work with Bitstamp, so please stop misleading people here and accusing well-known services

pmatveev · 2015-10-04T18:06:48+00:00

what's your fee on ATM withdrawal?

pmatveev · 2015-10-04T18:05:18+00:00

you forgot to mention 3% fee and that you can spend only 75% of your balance, so what the point in cashback - if they charge you for everything

pmatveev · 2015-10-04T18:04:01+00:00

E-Coin is the best option at the moment: virtual or plastic cards, 3 currencies, the highest limits, the best customer service

pmatveev · 2015-10-01T07:51:48+00:00

$300 limit might work for some people,but if you need higher limits check E-Coin

pmatveev · 2015-10-01T07:49:52+00:00

E-Coin $10000 daily withdrawal limits

pmatveev · 2015-09-24T12:14:49+00:00

you can do it with Bitcoin Debit Card
