I'm facing a problem with Bitcoin.de which happen few days ago, after several exchanges with no problems it seems to have been a fraud made by my exchange peer that got way with my bitcoins and my money to buy them . Bitcoin.de recognized the issue but did not correct my balance yet. We are not talking about a very large amount here so i hope they fix it in the next few days , but i lost trust one them !
Any one know Bitcoin.de are they reliable ?
Who should i complain if the don't assume their safety failure ?
I will post the end of this so you learn with my experience.
Mt.Gox seems to be having issues handling SEPA transfers right now.
Thanks for the open honesty and words of wisdom
that is hard thing, but what to do I need to sale bitcoins. what about MtGox if it is fast in and out seems like OK.
I understand what you're saying and I agree mostly, but I've had some coins disappear back during the whole MyBitcoin fiasco and it just left a bad taste. I try and keep them all offline and encourage others aswell.
especially instant wallet services 
i hate them
Well, online wallets like the one offered by blockchain.info is reasonably safe because the private keys only exist client side. They are encrypted with your password before they're uploaded, so the worst thing that could happen is blockchain.info suddenly disappearing, or deleting your account, or whatever. But that's what backups are for. I don't believe they suddenly could steal all their users' money (well unless they secretly inject some malware in their javascript, but that would be detected soon enough). i hate themHaving said so, I rather trust my private keys ONLY to a dedicated Linux machine that is never connected to the internets.
great advice!

Thanks for the warning. It is good point to secure oneself.

The coin might be anonymous, but I see these faucets everywhere, and none of them are anonymous - they have ads.
When you transact and buy something, you have to leak your identity to the seller.
Likewise, if you sell something, you are probably going to have to leak your identity to compete in the market.

so whats considered the most trusted website for bitcoin exchange right now ?
I prefer Intersango. They seem to be very concerned with security, I've done quite some business with them already, and had nothing but positive experiences so far.I know MtGox is huge. I assume they are popular for a reason. Any input regarding them?
