How can I buy BTC from these services ? (BTC-E and bitstamp), I understand BTC-E no longer accepts bank wire/transfers from the USA, bitstamp however still does. Are there other payment methods accepted by these two?
I don't have an account on BTC-e so I can't help you with that. As far as Bitstamp is concerned, I just took a screenshot of the deposit page.

You're talking about Coinbase right? Well, theoretically it can happen with any exchange and I know of at least 1 case on Kraken. However, I would recommend Bitstamp. I've been using it for years and have never had any problems. As long as you don't act 'suspiciously' you should be fine.
BTC-E the exchange I like to use to trade bitcoin never had a problem.
I have not heard of them closing accounts but you would have to double check.

if you are talking about coinbase i don't think they have closed account indiscriminately, their rules are shitty, that is all. besides coinbase is only good for a newbie to buy bitcoin in an easy fashion and then take the coins out right after purchase.
if you are looking for a loose exchanger
check out btc-e.com they don't ask for any information from their users either.

Hey guys, I am not creating this thread to take shots at a certain exchanger but from what I have read on this forum and other btc forums, I understand that there's a certain exchanger (CB) that has the habit of freezing accounts indiscriminately. So I would like to know the btc exchangers that don't close accounts recklessly.
