Topic: Pay your bills in canada with bitcoin (Read 1687 times)
I know the guy who started this. Very smart guy who works out of the Bitcoin Embassy in Montreal.
This is great news!!! I'm a proud Canadian right now. 
Found this on coindesk, this will be amazing if we can get it in other countries, Id certainly use it in the UK.
Canada seems to be leading the way in terms of bitcoin innovation.

I'd definitely say we are. First ever atm in Vancouver, another opened in Toronto a few weeks back. More and more companies are taking Bitcoin here everyday.
It's really cool to see it take off here. Some are saying that Canada will be the Silicon Valley of Bitcoins.
*edit* apparently there is an atm in Ottawa as well.
That is cool !
The value of the Canadian Dollar has been dropping quite sharply lately. It'll be great when I go there next on holiday, but it'll suck for the people living there. I expect to see a rise in the rate of Bitcoin adoption if that trend continues: http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/falling-loonie-means-just-more-milking-of-canadian-consumers-neil-macdonald-1.2513237
They seem to have suspended their service? The maintenance page has been up for over a day.
I love Canada, thinking about moving there.
If I had the money I would consider moving there too just because you can pay your bills with Bitcoin.
Depending on where you move in Canada, whether you can pay them with BTC or not, some of your bills will be drastically higher than elsewhere in the world for the same service. Read up on it...
Also, our income tax is crazy high; especially in Quebec.

Wow, and their office is a twenty minute walk from my home... Cool!
I don't know if I'll personally be using this service, especially since I will probably be moving away within the next couple of months, but kudos to the new site!

Canada are the first to do it but hopefully other countries will follow this amazing step forward.
Oh Canada, I love you.
Yep, I confirm my virgin mobile has been paid for the full amount of 69.44$
Nice. What Bitcoin rate did you get? Any fees?
0.0851 BTC which is 69.44$ + 3$ fee
I believe rate was about 850$ which was the current price on cavirtex when I did the payment
Note that it is Canadian dollar ($850 CAD / around $765 USD) - looks like their rate is linked to cavirtex which is in general on the low side; but the key is the service works.

Awesome discovery! Thanks so much. I only have a few bills to pay but I'll definitely give it a try.
You U.S.A. people can use www.joinsnapcard.com to pay your bills too.
I've used their services several times to order virtual goods and their service is awesome.

Registered, paid Virgin Mobile bill with it, awaiting confirmation
Looks like a great site, good job whoever did that.

please remember to post your experience, delay, etc. By the way, they mention the price is valid for 15 minutes but they want 5 confirmations - so the price will always fluctuate as 5 confirmations almost always take over 15 min??
