hats off that advcash didnt shut down, even though their business is crashing infront of them. i really respect that.

however, i, as anyone else, has to move on. this is not a problem that can be solved. VISA is behind all this bullshit, pusing Mastercard to cancel their co/op with all banks/payment systems that has connections to crypto.

you better look for debit cards which doesnt have any connections to crypto, and exchange via localbitcoins or likely, and fill with cash somehow. its fucked up

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Advanced Cash support center.

As Wave Crest, our current card solution provider, is unilaterally shutting down our card program, please, read the information below:

- you can not fund your plastic and virtual Advanced Cash cards anymore and you won't be able to
- all existing plastic and virtual cards can be used for transactions if there are funds on them, until they are closed permanently on February 27, 2018
- currently ATM withdrawals are allowed with a daily limit of EUR 1000 / USD 1000 in SEPA countries and EUR 500 / USD 500 outside the SEPA zone
- there are no new limits concerning POS transactions in shops

All plastic and virtual cards will be reissued for free after we implement the card platform from our new provider which is about to happen soon.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation and we apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Now there is the possibility to register at Exmo and send bitcoin to them directly, then convert to fiat and send to a mastercard, the problem is I don't know if we can trust Exmo, I have been reading so many negative comments about them (they won't even validate my legit documents anyway, no reason given, not the best start).

EXMO always has the best BTC/fiat ratios, and while AdvCash card work it was the best option...now they have limited withdrawal options with significant fees.

But, the BTC rate to EUR, on their BTC-exchange.com is very low...  Undecided

That's the issue with all services providing a mastercard and a wallet in bitcoin (or ethereum), they take a massive fee on all exchanges. Advcash was just the same with their Top Up service, not many in the market right now, that's the reason why. Tough times.

the waveSH***  suddenly decided to shut it down.  But at least there are few weeks of time to withdraw money.

It was a suprise for everbody that visa and mastercard (!) suddenly canceled theyr contract with wavecrest. Its not a problem caused by the owners of advcash!
They always made staight business.

Privacy Servers. Since 2009.
Just received my brand new shiny AdvCash card recently and then this.... I'm a bit disappointed as I tried withdrawing once and it worked like a charm. 

MisterTango still works I can confirm that. Good thing they offer a free SEPA account with the card so you can sell BTC on an exchange and then send a sepa payment (free or 1EUR fee?) to your Mistertango card. Then you can avoid the hefty loading fee.

payeer.com has been on the market for a while, looks like an interesting alternative. They deliver Mastercard / Visa, they even support ETH.
I know a friend of mine who has a card with them and it works fine. Anyone else here?

Payeer its only available for thoose who already have the card, new customers cant order.

After a intensive search i found that right now the only card working is the mistertango mastercard card issued by WIRECARD!

The only problem is that when you send bitcoin to them the convert the money instantly to fiat, and you pay a minimum fee of 0.0025btc!

Is it possible to deposit with ETH, BCH, XMR, LTC, etc? Or is it just BTC?

You guys seem to have missed this:

"All plastic and virtual cards will be reissued for free after we implement the card platform from our new provider which is about to happen soon."

Let's wait then, and see, I'll write to the support today about this and see what they reply (which provider? Estimate date?).
For now, we have time to withdraw and find a back up solution in case we need one.

In fact, I think all people saying it's "a disaster" have not understood that the failure point is most probably Wavescrest, as it happend before with Visa cards all around. I think they will shortly find a replacement processor.



instead, you are not considering that, if there was ONLY one issuer, a single point of failure in the entire world, probably there was a reason.
Do you really believe that as of a sudden, another provider will be found, and no one in the entire world has been able to find one in the last months?
Consider that visa cards gad been shut down for no-sepa in august. And nothing has been done since then.

anyway if you like espress your vote in my poll: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/poll-do-you-think-a-new-plastic-card-issuer-will-be-found-after-wavecrest-off-2812087  thanks
