When I log in I just get a message that says a further review is needed and that they will contact me. After a few days where nothing happened I sent an email asking what the heck, still no answer.
Seriously bad start. Too bad, the concept was perfect.

Their 2FA has some serious bugs (not good for a company trying to promote itself as being *as safe as a bank*).
I've never had any problem with 2FA with SMS with my internet banking but circle.com just keeps *rejecting* the code (even after they *reset* my account to the point that it thinks it is the first time I am doing this).
I might end up using Google Authenticator just to "get things working" but I am rather disappointed at their software quality (clearly we are the *guinea pigs* and they did not do enough testing).
Again it now keeps sending me SMS messages (despite the fact I am not requesting them) and again I hope that costs them something (as it's rather annoying to keep being sent the same useless SMS).
The idea of writing a good software platform is *to test it first* not *let the end-user's be the testers* (reminds me of all Microsoft version 1 products).

How much Circle is charging to non-US customers ? Is buying from Circle costs less than buying from Bitstamp/BTC-e at the same time ?

Its 2FA login stuff is *broken* - it keeps sending me the same verification code which after I enter it keeps telling me is "invalid". 
Their support is not much use either (Eriks instructed me to do a "device" reset which just results in it sending my phone the *same number again* which it *again says is invalid*).
I hope the SMS costs them something as they've sent me over 100 so far (for some reason it seems to just keep on sending me SMS after SMS).

First 2 instant transactions went through smoothly.
My last two bitcoin purchase transactions failed! No reasons given.

Circle is open to the public as of today, I believe. I have been using it here and there. I have been buying more BTC lately because of how low the prices are. I think anyone who believes in BTC would be foolish not to buy any right now because of how cheap the coins really are.
I am not at all into mining, but I would assume that mining would be break even at best right now given the difficulty and the cost of electricity vs. the current prices of BTC

I am using Circle.com from begining of September. I am purchasing BTC with Mastercard, Circle charges jou also card fee 2,7% (which is logical). I also tried sell feature. Money (again -2,7% card fee) was sent to my credit card.
Circle is in my opinion the best service in bitcoin world. It is Simple & Reliable. It is like Gmail in e-mail world. We must understand that bitcoin will go into mainstream only when there will be services like Circle is. I am currenty using it for weekly buying (there is limit 500 USD/week).

Hey all, I just got my circle.com invite the other day. I was interested in their service (not necessarily as a wallet), but just as an added option to what I have been using Coinbase.com for (to purchase small amounts of BTC).
At first glance, the largest differences that I have noticed so far:
1) you can purchase BTC directly with a credit card (Visa and Mastercard only)
2) When you purchase BTC, you set the amount of USD that you want to convert (instead of setting the amount of BTC that you want to buy)
How many of you are using Circle.com so far? What are your experiences? Have any of you purchased BTC with a credit card? If so, did you get hit with cash advance fees? What credit cards would you recommend using in correlation with your Circle.com account?
