Sorry if this is a stupid question--- You can't just do an international wire transfer to their bank in Japan?

Is it just me or are all of these Bitcoin exchange websites absolutely terrible in their methods and service?

It's not you.

Here might be some options to consider:

Blockchain.info just added the ability to use Barclay's Pingit to buy bitcoins using GBP:

You can also send cash (GBP) in the mail to Bitcoin Nordic (in Denmark):

And, or course, there may be a chance for a local trade:

I tried to make a upay account or something to fund MT GOX, but it's another one of these that wants to see all kinds of stupid identification before I can fund my account with my own money in my bank account.

According to upay, a full UKDL isn't a valid proof of my address, either, hahaha! How pathetic.

wtf, first Intersango and now Mt Gox. Intersango banked with Metro Bank until the plug was pulled. Now Barclays is giving Mt Gox shit? This is fvcking annoying. I've a good mind to phone up Barclays or Metro Bank and demand an explanation as to wot the fvck is going on  Angry

The Money Powers will continue to squeeze bitcoin in whatever manner they can. They can't just come out and say bitcoin is a threat so they'll use whatever they have at their disposal.

I'm trying to fund my account on MT GOX since UK transfers on Intersango went down. I can't be bothered with the 3 day wait for the funds, but it is the only option I guess since I'm a UK user...

So, I log into my online banking and go to make a transfer to Tibanne Limited, everything is fine until I see this:

Anyone had this? The details are definitely correct. Is it just me or are all of these Bitcoin exchange websites absolutely terrible in their methods and service? They are constantly experiencing bank issues. First Intersango Ltd have all kind of problems with Metro which resulted in a 2 week delay on my last transfer, and now MT GOX are having problems with Barclays and are limited to a certain amount of 'entries' per day.
