Hello everybody. I actually opened an account on exba.se, deposited some btc, and ordered a silver atm card.
Okay, the card came. I'm waiting for exba.se to send me my pin. I sent him a personal message asking for one. Actually, we exchanged more than one pm. Same kind of behavior you've been seeing in this thread -- use of f-bombs, saying he's drunk...
I haven't sent an email to support at exba.se yet, I thought I'd wait for our sterling comrade to answer my pm.
I suppose I could live with crazy talk and profanity. It depends on whether I can use this card without getting sheared like a sheep with astronomical fees.
So far:
I sent as little btc as I could in order to get the card. The silver card requires a balance of at least $400 worth of btc. So I deposited 0.05 btc when the price was around $8800.
The card came. According to the paperwork with the card, it has $10 on it.
My account at exba.se now has .03 btc. They charged me .02 btc for the card. Makes me wonder how much it's going to cost me to recharge this card, if I actually end up getting to use it. Navigating around the website, I still don't have the option of recharging the card. I guess they will activate that when they send me the pin. I suspect that the exchange rate to convert btc to dollars to charge the card with will have a vig of at least 15%. Because on the exchange page for converting dollars to btc they take a cut of between 15 and 20 percent.
Edit: I just now sent an email to
[email protected], asking them to send me a pin and enable my account so that I can recharge the card.
