I'm still curious, what is the purpose of $10 minimum to add funds to the card?

I believe E-coin uses the same card issuer as Xapo and Advcash.
The other 2 cards seem to work just fine, it's strange that this one is having issues.

Since the user are reporting that they are receiving the blank black debit card then it should be the same.
But each other xapo advcash and now e-coin have different rates and each of them earn different profit.
Now bit-x has made they cards extremely expensive and i don't want other competitive to increase the price.

I tried again a few hours later, and I was able to charge and use my card.
FWIW

its bad that the card dont always work, "Service unavailable - try again later" is a little bit problematic if you just filled your car up with gas for example
The problem was with the "load card with fiat from BTC" function not with using the card to buy things if you had available fiat balance in the card. I was able to buy things using the card and receive sms about the remaining card balance when the problem was mentioned.

[
P.S. Have around $79 (after the EUR card order) in my e-coin account. Tried to load my USD card with $70 - "Service unavailable - try again later". Tried with $50 - "Service unavailable - try again later".

Same problem here, and I have a physical card. Its been a few days, and OP hasnt been online here for a few days. An update would be nice.

I try to contact the support. Their answer was that :

"Hello,

we have asked the bank to check the reasons and will get back to you as soon as we have the answer.

Kind regards,
E-Coin Team"


No problem for the limits, i can't use that card so my limit is 0 daily!!

If you haven't edited this screenshot then you can pay the phone credit or the 60€ shoes,
It means that have spend(sold) around ~5BTC, but since you can't spent this balance this is very bad have you tried to contact the support.
Keep in mind that you have limits when you want to spend, especially daily limits.

I think that you can't even take back the funds in your vcc? Has they enabled that option to buy bitcoins yet?

What about Bangladesh. I don't see my country name in country list to use Bitcoin Debit Card.
Requesting to add Bangladesh in available country list.

Thanks

I think that it has to do with the bank that issues these debit cards.
Just checked other debit cards service(bit-x) and i think that you can order there a card (anonymous) and not the named card.
It cost more at the beginning but it is the best from the all expensive cards that they will offer by October.

I can't still make any payment with my virtual CC. very bad.. Huh Huh Angry Angry

Having 4 post in bitcointalk.org forums not means that an user isn't expert. I'm new here because i was searching a thread or news about my situation in google, found this thread starts talking about a problem with e.coin card, so i registered up an account to take part, even viewing e-coin admin talking in the thread. It's very strange, bought 1 EUR vcc with 3 eur balance, use for PP verification, tried to withdraw on it ( worked ), now the card have balance, but any transaction is refused.

No fear, i'm trying only to get support

This is not good to judge people by their posts,
It can be a CEO from a company that have just been registered with his new nickname.
For which country are we talking about that the VCC does not work?
