Is it a problem for you to verify your ID? Otherwise, why don't you use exchanges like Bitstamp, Bl3p, and so on? It will be faster, considering you're using your bank account. I don't know any website that won't require having the ID verified.

Why don't you use peer-to-peer exchanges like LocalBitcoins, BitQuick, BitSquare, and Wall of Coins. They require little to no ID verification processes.
I'm not sure if Coinmana also doesn't need ID verification at all or it's just limited to a set amount. You should still check though.
yeah I used localbitcoins once, to buy my 1st miner in a hurry. And I paid extra 20% for that transaction (because the mark-up is high). So I try not to incur anymore "extra" unless no choice.
Coinmana is just another exchange; they do not accept deposit/top-up via fiat currency unlike xfers. The other 3 you mentioned I have not tried.

Hi guys,

I have opened and traded a small bit of BTC using the combination of Coinbase+Xfers recently.

However, the Xfers.io had taken more than 2 weeks to verify my account and review/increase my trading limits. The Xfers site also disable top-up of fiat currencies, their site stated that the top-ups will resume in late Dec 2017 and up till now it hasn't.

I am getting impatient and frustrated as I have lost out many chances to buy miners because of their incompetence.

Is there kind soul to recommend me an alternative? FYI, I have Binance account, Blockchain account, etc., but these are trading platforms that accepts crypto deposit only.

I need something like Xfers.io that allows me to perform top-up of fiat currency and then buy BTC like coinbase+Xfers does.
 
Thanks in advance.


I am in a similar position. I registered at xfers about 3 weeks ago but have yet to receive any news on my acc verification.
I emailed them but received no reply. I tried to express my negative sentiments on their FB page but they were deleted within hours.

These incompetent jokers at xfers know that they are the only ones who have a partnership with Coinbase and you will need them if u want to trade altcoins.
That's why they can afford to offend their customers. I'd suggest you send an email to register a complaint with Coinbase and let them know of this issue with xfers.
Hopefully, that may prompt Coinbase to choose a more efficient partner.

If you are only interested in buying BTC, u may want to consider https://www.fybsg.com.
They also allow u to withdraw BTC and transfer to other exchanges through an address. But that will cost u a small transaction fee.


 


This xfers really suck so hard, I can retire my 2200W vacuum cleaner in my storeroom. Also, I will try the fybsg you mentioned. Thanks!

To avoid verification and time associated with it, you will have to deal with higher rates.
P2P networks like LocalBitcoins is much faster, just find a suitable seller and buy bitcoins with your fiat. It's pretty safe and reliable too, until you decide to mess up which i don't think you can because of how simple it is.
Then again, you'll get worse rates than coinbase here. Apart from localbitcoins i've also used paxful, there other alternatives too but i haven't ever used them.
I suggest you to compare rates all over these places and buy from the best suitable option.



Yes, I will avoid all P2P like localbitcoins unless I have no choice. Thanks anyway.
