Hi,
I'm looking for a website in the UK that lets me exchange my BTC into GBP as I can't trust localbitcoin.co.uk and Intersango stopped the service a long time ago,PayPal/other traders are too risky for my liking (as people love to take your BTC,claim a chargeback and you lose out) and the types of sites in the UK seem to disappear quickly.


Might I ask why you don't trust localbitcoins? I've bought £2000 worth with traders on that site, and sold a few hundred £ worth too. It's worked very well for me.

Hi

I will buy coins at £77.50 each, paying via UK Bank transfer.

Escrow would need to be through John K and we split escrow fees or alternatively we can split it into smaller trades. I am looking for approx £1000 worth today.

Short answer is no. You could *try* https://bittylicious.com/ - but I suspect you'd need to wait for someone to 'BUY' the Bitcoins from their pool (you wouldn't be able to instantly cash out). Alternatives are to use an exchange such as Bitstamp or Kraken (yes you would need to submit ID for both). If you're completely anti identification your only real alternative may be https://bitbargain.co.uk - again, you'd need to wait for someone to 'BUY' your Bitcoins so the process would not be instant unless you want to offer an extremely favorable price of course...

Hi,

Is there any site that can let me exchange BTC to GBP in a manner similar to Mt Gox but without asking me for ID? As I'm a very busy man due to being asked to edit a huge film project (Sea of Change,the trailer is out.It's about transforming lives for the better worldwide and will be shown at the UN at some point so everything has to be perfect by then.)

I'd also love a service where Barclay's PingIt is used if a suitable alternative isn't available in UK in terms of what exchanges are actually trading BTC to GBP.

Thanks Smiley
