Topic: UPDATE (Read 2755 times)

what bank are you using for?dont judge that bank by first time transaction,make sure that you are know that your bank account accepting transaction to coinbase. i never do that,but i think you should try bank account who has proofable can used on coinbase,dont wasting time
finally,dont judge bank account by first transaction you made

So finally you were able to make your buy. And $330 is still a good price to get some coins.
In 1 or 2 years it might 3 to 5-fold more and then you will look back and think how lucky you are.

Well, that's good that you didn't lose on it. $330 is still good price. Do you know on which side was the problem? Bank or Coinbase?

I don't know which is your bank, and what kind of payment system is used by your bank, but for me five days is madness. Transfers from my bank to Coinbase goes about 24h (very rarely 48h)

Better think to change your bank

You are luck in this occasion that our bank holds you transfer for 5 days. The price is still lower than $350, let alone 350 Euros. You may buy now lower than $330.
The speed of bank transfer is pathetic. Banks charge a lot of fees, but transfer your money slowly. They do not care about customers.

Who are you talking to exactly? The OP or someone else that has commented?

You would dishonor Satoshi and your father, if you stopped commenting on this thread. You hate the banks and now you have a opportunity to show how bad they are, and then you give up when you are slightly offended by what someone commented on your thread?

This could turn into a practical example of how much better Bitcoin can be, compared to banks. It would even be better, if you could provide some proof. < Just blur out the sensitive information > 

Still waiting? This wait rivals the length of time it's taking Coinut signature campaigners to get paid!

What a great a case study of one of the easiest benefits of transactions with bitcoin.

Mine didn't process yet but I got a notification they are getting some new provider to speed it up on cavirtex, kind of curious though on coinbase as it seems to be just as slow.

I just cant wait for the day where Bitcoin is globally accepted by everyone and I can forget about dealing with banks. I am so pissed off at banks too since I discovered Bitcoins. Everytime something happens I have to not only call but go there in person because they don't trust you and ask for IRL credentials.

That's the problem with Banks. Time. it happened once the same thing to me. When the money got to the exchange it was too late, I had missed a very good opportunity to buy very low... back then i would have bought at $168...

Strange situation. I use Coinbase precisely because of the quick transfers between my bank account. Always goes about 24 hours, once I waited two days. Maybe write ticket to support ..

What do you do now that my prediction become true? The price of bitcoin today is lower than 5 days ago when you wanted your money from your bank immediately, having fear (or better being sure) that the price of bitcoin shall will be higher today? Will have the courage to thanks your bank for transfer your money within (after) 5 days in delay? If you consider yourself man you must to do this. And accept publicly that insulting the bank about something which is not known how it will be is a stupid thing. And don't tell me that you don't do this because the bank ruin your life and the life of your father. In this case. your bank helped you and you must be fair with it. 


No one ask to like me but to be fair. I don't defend the bank. I defend the right. The bank, in this last your case, bring you money and you must thank it. As for the care that the bank must have for you it is the same care that have for its customers every other business which act in its market to have the maximum of the profit possible. It is the law of being and doing business. Act in market to have profit. The same do even the bank. I am very satisfy with my bank. Give me to many possibilities, answer to any my need in very short time and make my life easier. So have no reasons to not like it. I am sure that even your bank do the same thing. But must be you to not be fair with it. Like you did 5 days ago with your main post of this thread.

Any change? Has your transaction gone through? What bank do you use? Transfers for me don't usually take a week to transfer

Why do you buy from coinbase? Can't you do a bank purchase?

People don't have patience when they see an opportunity.

That's usually how it works, y'know.
But, it sometimes is a good thing when risk is involved. That amount of time can allow people to rationalize their decisions.

Some people says that waiting 10 minuts for bitcoin network confirmations is very slow, what they will say about waiting four days for a bank transfer? Thats 576 times x 10 minuts.

That is tough luck. But looks like the delay won't affect the OP too much.
Bitcoin prices haven't moved much over the last few days.

Yeah its murder having to wait i remember when i first got into bitcoin and wanted to buy during a bubble, cost me about 20 bitcoin difference waiting for funds to clear.

If the bank ruin you father and you all why then you continue to leave there your money? Hold those in your home or somewhere else. But not in the bank. At least this would me behavior is something with hurt me. Then I'm curious what has given to you Satoshi. I'm interested to know this. Because I hope that Satoshi will give something to me but in the future. For the moment Satoshi gave me only costs (buy of bitcoins).

You must thanks the bank. If it will be not the bank you will have not the possibility to send money to Coinbase, you will have not your credit/debit card to deposit money in some other place and then from there (if it will be possible) to send those in another place where you can buy bitcoin with the good price offered by Coinbase (if there exist this some other place). Maybe you need to thanks the bank even for another possible situation; if the price during these days goes down. The bank has given you more bitcoins with its late transfer of your money. So better to take the good side of this story. Make good even to you.

What must to do me which have no possibility to buy bitcoin at Coinbase (even I am an old customer of this wallet), because Coinbase don't offer such option in my country? I am obligated to buy bitcoin in other places which sell bitcoin more expensively. So I must buy the same amount of bitcoin with more money compared to you. Remain to send to hell Coinbase which don't offer its service in my country. But only if me were you. And to tell the right I am not.
