Hi,
I am interested in a $500 Costco card. Can you please let me know for how long that card is valid? Also I assume it does not need to be used all at one time correct?

Thanks

Hi there,

There is no expiration date and it is just like a prepaid debit card, you can use it as many times as you like. Just to make sure you're aware, though, it only works at Costco in the U.S. as far as I know.

Happy Spending!
Jeremy

Wow, that's a new one. I've got my tech guys looking at it now.

It will probably only show if your browser has personal certificates specifically installed for this purpose (mine allow me to login to my certificate provider). Anyways, it seems to have stopped now.

I'm unable to browse spendbitcoins.com with firefox, I get this error:

Code:

Secure Connection Failed
      
An error occurred during a connection to www.spendbitcoins.com.

Peer does not recognize and trust the CA that issued your certificate.

(Error code: ssl_error_unknown_ca_alert)

while I get an error of untrusted connection while trying to browse https://au.spendbitcoins.com/

Using chrome it's ok for https://spendbitcoins.com/ but I get the same error on the au site

Hi Dusty,

I'm very sorry for the inconvenience. We migrated to a new server yesterday in order to finalise as much automating of order fulfilment as we can and we are having some issues both with some ISPs not recognising the site as well as with some email servers rejecting our automated emails. We are working hard to resolve both issues but have had no problems actually receiving bitcoins and fulfilling orders. Hopefully all will be as normal (or better!) within the next few days.

My browser recognizes the cert as legit, but why the heck is the server asking me to identify myself with one of my own certificates?

may I suggest something?
your current website draws the user's attention to the new SpendBitcoin Tool.
when I click on it it says that it is in beta.

even though I used your website in the past, this new layout led me to believe
that your service is now unavailable, and will be unavailable until the new Tool
is publicly released.

I suggest you try to draw the attention of the user to the "want to spend bitcoins right now?"
part, and make the beta tool much smaller.

Thanks for the suggestion Thomas. I'm hoping it will be immaterial very soon as we are coming very close to public release of the tool (of course that's what I thought in February!). At any rate, the first priority is getting these kinks worked out. Once we do, we may look at changing the layout a bit in case it continues to take longer than we expect for release.

Oh, also, our subdomains are not working which is the problem with http://au.spendbitcoins.com. That's just a subdomain redirect. You can access the actual page at http://spendbitcoins.com/buy.

Thanks!

Is there a 1BTC fee?

Interesting you should ask that today, as today is the very day we axed that fee.

You can support Spend Bitcoins FEE FREE by always shopping through our links at http://links.spendbitcoins.com (even if you're using government issued money!)

Just asking to make sure that I got this right:

If I select Paypal USD
and I put my Paypal email address in the e-mail field,
and the amount in USD that I want to receive (gross, incl. Paypal fees that i might get charged with), then ...

... By sending the specified BTC to the BTC address that I get from your page, the USD amount that I specified will be sent to my Paypal account.

Is that correct?

Sorry for sounding stupid, but it is not clear from the webpage, and since there's money involved, I don't want to mess it up.

Thanks.

You've got it exactly right. Our webpage will be updated to be much simpler within the next few weeks. Watch this space.

Did a transaction last week, although it was slightly delayed, I got compensated, and communication was excellent! Will use the service in the future if/whenever possible.

Jeremy,

The last two payments I recieved from you have been flagged for review.....Does this happen often? Any idea how it gets resolved? I really hope they don't reverse it.

Good lord I hate Paypal.

Hi yochdog,

I'm sorry to hear that. So far I've only been told about it happening once, on a transaction for $2500. They were asked to send all kinds of ID etc in order to have it released, which is why I put the disclaimer on the site saying that PayPal may do just that.

They are a pain in the arse, and everyone knows they hate bitcoin. Hating them is actually the reason I got into bitcoin, and I hate that I support them. I only did so due to popular demand. I do suggest anyone who can cash out any other way does so, and I hope this gets resolved for you very quickly. Please keep us informed.
