How soon until you guys offer services in the UK?

It would be great if you teamed up with paypoint/payzone - people could buy a voucher code to be entered into your website, then voilà you have funds  Smiley

Very very soon!

Like, super soon.

I dont know a word that conveys sooner than soon.

Do you?

Hey Charlie!

 Your commission rate to send USD to BTC-e just doubled!?

 It was 1.99% a week ago and now it is 3.99 Huh

 Something is wrong or it is this value from now on?

Tks!
Thiago

No, it was always 3.99%. The 1.49% you saw was a mistake for 1 day.

Thanks!!

Wrong, I already paid more than 20 "boletos" @ 1.49% to BTC-e. I'm paying that fee since my first day with Bitinstant couple months ago.

I always paid (1080 BRL) for 500 USD and receive 480 at btc-e... But now, I paid (1080 BRL) for 500 and receive 462... Too expensive... I'm paying 2.33766 BRL for 1 USD but, 1 USD here in Brazil costs 2.01 BRL... It costs too much now...  Cry

Please, when you'll have bank deposit enabled? So, I can at least lower those fees by eliminating the also expensive "boleto"...  :-/

Best,
Thiago

It was a mistake with BTCe only.

We will let you know

I'm glad to say that this service is awesome! Now I don't have to wait 3-7 business days to get money to Dwolla. Within an hour your money is in your account.

Sweeeeet! Cheesy

Let's talk governance, lipstick, and pigs.
Walmart fail. Instead of the small amounts I usually deposit, this time I wanted to make a larger deposit. Bitinstant.com has a $500 limit so I broke it up into multiple orders. It would mean getting charged the $3.95 ZipZap fee multiple times, but that's not a big deal. I printed the PDFs out and they had the codes and payments in the amount of $503.95. Well, they didn't work because it doesn't take anything over $500. Apparently the limit is $496.05. I don't know what to do now? Can I use the same deposit forms and just change the amount submitted or do I need to create new deposit account numbers?

Also, the Walmart clerk still requires ID and signature on a MoneyGram slip, though I'm hoping to convince them otherwise. It would help if you included step by stem instructions for ZipZap because they didn't even know what that is.

If your still at the store, call me and I can change the deposit slips for you.

If not, you can do it on your mobile phone.

I'm gonna call up Moneygram tomorrow to let them know about this issue so it can be fixed.
I'll give it a shot tomorrow and just print out new slips.
I tried again. This time The slips were made out for exactly $500 including the $3.95 ZipZap fee. The first one went through fine. The second one would not go through because you cannot have transactions for the same amount going to the same account. I then put through my last one because it was an odd amount and it went through fine. Also, they required me to sign a MoneyGram form and provide ID for each transaction because it is in the instructions on the printout just as if I had no printout and wanted to send a MoneyGram.

Can you provide a page on your website where you list where you stand bringing this service to each country?

Thats a super idea!

Yeah, I live in the US, but I think that it would be interesting to know what developments are in the pipeline.

I know that you have posted some of this information on this thread, but it would be nice to be able to be able to look at one official source for this information.

Thanks

I just used BitInstant last night and am impressed.  The ZipZap fee caught me off guard as well - but it's a flat fee so that helps a bit.  I'm not exaggerating when I say this - as the cashier (CVS) tore the MoneyGram receipt to hand it to me - my phone went off (email) with my BitInstant confirmation.  Very cool.

My transaction was MoneyGram -> Bitcoin address.  I didn't see a tx id or anything on my status.  Is this something that could be added ?  Maybe a link to block explorer with the tx or something ?  FYI I did NOT have any issues with receiving the BTC - by the time I drove home from CVS I had it in my wallet.

Thanks for the nice review!

Good suggestion- We will add a link to blockchain and a TX ID in the emails

Thanks
