Originally posted by psychocandy View PostThats not too bad. But where do they get the exchange rate BTC/GBP from?
I'm not exactly spending BTC when I use it, but I sell some BTC to load my card. So why don't I do that with a normal debit card? Speed. It takes seconds to load with cash - can even do so on my phone. Normally I'll try to load when I think BTC or which ever coin is on a rally to lock in profits.

This is what 'Fear' looks like. Sellers being to appear in abundance and buyers with their backs to the wall. 'Capitulation' is still to come, that's when sellers start chasing each other to the bottom, give it another 24-48 hours tops.

I've withdrawn £ from them via SEPA in the past as well with no problems. I'm not happy with Coinbase after they delayed my last ETH withdrawal for 72 hours after I've done all the ID thing and upped my deposit limit. To bypass the 72 hour thing they wanted me to take webcam pics of my driving license along with a selfie which I tried twice and it failed, so they lost me as a customer that day..."Is someone you don't like allowed to say something you don't like?

Originally posted by Jog On View PostI'm liking uphold quite a bit, they have virtual currency/crypto 'cards'. I transferred FIAT to them last week (5 figures) through SEPA, then used their system to transfer it from my GBP card to BTC card and effectively bypassed Coinbase. They charged 1%. Then sent the BTC to bittrex and my ledger nano - instant. last night sent BTC back from ledger and bittrex to uphold, transferred from BTC card to GBP card - sitting in £
