On the brighter side at least we can dabble in international markets and learn from any mistakes, once the UK catches on(hopefully) we might even have our own micro climate.
I just remembered , Blockchain!!! Thanks for letting me sign up, only to find out that depositing money from the UK has been disabled. This is very annoying considering they list UK as an option before signup, they just have not bothered to update the info I guess.
If you got online banking with faster payments I'd recommend bitbargain I was hesitant at first but the bitcoin they send you is kept in escrow on the site before you even pay anything so they can't just run off with your money, and once u've used a seller once it becomes easier and they won't be as anonymous cos you have they're bank details n name, so you can just keep using the same same seller if you prefer.
