Is there a UK list for this? this is what I am struggling with...
In the UK you have several methods.
Blockchain.info has "Faster Payments". The daily limit isn't too high though ("New users are limited to a maximum purchase of £100 per 7 days and a maximum single transaction size of £100.")

Then there's BitBargain:

You can also send cash (GBP) in the mail to Bitcoin Nordic (in Denmark):
- http://www.BitcoinNordic.com
For larger amounts you can send an International wire transfer to an exchange (e.g., Mt. Gox, or Bitcoin-24.com, etc.)
One approach that is recommended is to use a currency conversion service to exchange your GBPs to EUR and then send the EUR to an exchange. The conversion services would be TransferWise and CurrencyFair. Then withdraw to an exchange like BITSTAMP.net.

For smaller amounts, you can buy a UKash voucher and redeem that at:
- http://mercabit.eu
- http://www.VirWoX.com
- http://www.BitcoinNordic.com (through a CashU account)
And there are many many local traders in the UK, buying and selling frequently. Here's for London:
