To go back to the original post, has anybody else tried VirWox with success/misfortune?

And does anybody know other alternatives for buying BTC with a Credit Card?

Again, use CoinBase if you're in the US. There aren't really any other reliable alternatives right now, unless you get an invite from Circle.

Time is on our side, yes it is!
People who are selling BTC and are accepting PayPal are living a pretty risky life! The buyers can easily file a chargeback and get their money back. Since BTC transactions are irreversible, the BTC are then gone, as well as the money used to pay for them.

I don't think it as risky if you trust the person your selling to has morals and isn't out to scam you out of a few dollars.  It's all about being able to judge a persons character and go from there.  Not to mention the persons service would likely have been used by other members of the forum and not had any issues.  I personally have done this don't regret it one bit, I'm more worried Paypal would close the account to then I am of a chargeback from the few transactions I've done.

Trust me!
If you can find someone that sells you Bitcoin via PayPal (at a reasonable price) you're lucky. But most people won't do that since they risk you filing a charge-back, claiming your account was compromised or something like that...

you could buy them on exchange like kraken, they are safe to use, no scammers there and no need escrow, but don't leave your money there, one never know

No, you cannot buy from Kraken using a Credit Card or PayPal. Please refrain from posting unconstructive comments.

There are other payments processor to transfer money. In general CC or any other ways of payment which can be reversed are not permitted to buy currency ETC...
I will still insist to not keep BTC or money in exchange as this is just asking for trouble.

Welcome to the US, the land of no cash, only credit card.

buy from Kraken very high risk brother, look at contact address website them using one of us drop address ( hide real address ) ( look like address viaddress   Grin ) and risk lost your money is big really ( its really big risk ) ... don't do it or your money  lose....  Grin Cheesy

Seriously, get some English Courses and learn to read.

sorry not kraken but KryptoXchange.pw  <--- big risk
Please check our services out with a small amount first before posting false warnings.
And you hopefully know that credit card transactions can be chargebacked, mate? Wink

If in US look into coinbase.  You use bank account (you can put a CC on file if it uses the CC i is a highe percentage).

Best bet is bank linked to coinbase.  Also there is always localbitcoins.

Whew I am so happy I found this Smiley   The easiest way to buy and sell btc without having to worry about getting scammed.  Read the short guide, I found it here http://bitstarsite.wordpress.com/

If you have any questions just ask and I can try and help.

Yeah, but VirWox has very ridiculous fees, and they can easily freeze your VirWox account with money in it due to "security reasons".

This virvox loophole is designed to juice from you as much as possible.
Small amounts and high fees makes this really crap service..

Very true. But for buying bitcoin with Paypal, it is easier to go through Virwox than using localbitcoins as no one is going to trust a new user with paypal payment.

Most exchanges are not bank so this is good advice.
