Still haven't tested my Xapo debit card, but a different card from the same issuing bank works without a hitch. Not sure about delays and fees though, will get back to you all on that.

I dont like Xapo because they ask all members to verify fully with them before you can cashout any faucet earnings.  Sad

I wasted a cashout from a faucet because I did not know they wanted my SSN  Undecided


Xapo is a waste of time and a risk.

I totally agree, they ask too many personal info that made me suspicious.

The whole idea about crypto currencies is total freedom and decentralization. Xapo is trying to impose its roles that basicly revokes the freedom of the BTC holder.

Also, I read a complain from an Xapo user who says that they prevented him access to his bitcoins before he verifies his ID! (Chek Here : https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2mgyxj/xapo_does_not_allow_me_to_take_my_bitcoins/ )

Personally I found Blockchain is the most reasonable online wallet.

It's very normal to require temporary disabling of adblockers, so third party API's can communicate with you, in this case, the Google Maps API. I'm happy to answer any questions you have related to Xapo to confirm our legitimacy.

2 weeks is the longest period to receive the funds from CEVO, right?
I'm not totally clear on your question. You sure this isn't something to ask CEVO?

I did ask for help and was assisted soon there after via email.  While she's been very helpful, I question one thing she's asked me to do to verify my info.  She wants me to remove my adblocker and antivirus software to for it to work.  Is that normal? I'm not really comfortable with running my computer without ad-blockers and definitely not without anti-virus.  Is turning off that software just for the verification process or for the life of the Xapo wallet?  This advise seems a tad fishy to me.  Can any techies speak to the veracity of this advice?

That seems very very fishy. Are you 100% sure that this email is from Xapo? I didn't had to do any of that stuff to get verified.

David from Xapo &/or anyone who can answer this:

In doing my due diligence and checking out the feedback on Xapo first, I'm seeing that it seems to be a favored wallet for Faucets.  Some, like Moon Bitcoin, make direct deposits to Xapo wallet while those with other wallets have to wait until collection day.  I'm curious.  Why is this? 

link for moon bitcoin is http://www.moonbit.co.in/
It would be wise to ask this in their service thread.

There is another thread for Xapo Service Discussion here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/to-contact-xapo-support-please-use-our-faqs-httpssupportxapocom-902526
Please direct any comments about our products there.

Awesome.  I will.  Thank you!   Grin

Watching a CSGO game currently and xapo is actually sponsoring one of the finalist teams. I don't think a scam would sponsor a pro csgo team lol

I don't know if it's a scam or not..
Why don't just use the original wallet where you'll have full control of it?
because with the full wallet you cant go to like walmart and buy stuff or cant go rent a hotel room right on the spot. I dont want to have to like hey wife lets go on a trip i will sell some bitcoin to coinbase and wait 3-5 days for coinbase to send me money to bank account lol. I want fast transactions and real time use like a normal credit / debit card  Grin

While it's not as convenient as a debit card, you may want to check this out.  https://www.gyft.com/bitcoin/   Gyft sells you gift cards to various stores for Bitcoin.

I wouldn't be surprised if this has already been said earlier (just to lazy to check tonight), but Xapo has big money behind them, who trust me have done their DD! One company in particular is Fortress Investment Group (FIG), who trade on the NYSE and have over 65+billion in managed assets! So NO they're not a scam!

Yeah i think i had seen Xapos mentioned on some webpage for forbes 500 or some other financial publication, but they had pretty much said something about raising like $40 million or something like that
