Will old addresses still work? I mean, the ones before the SegWit transition.

Mine used to work, I've got some small payments onto that address and they've got transferred to the SegWit-enabled address automatically for a fee. All but the last one.

Right now I'm also curious "what's next" since I have again some small amount sitting on that address, so the automatic process has "stopped" it seems.
I don't mind it's stopped, I'll lose less from fees, I'll gather small amounts there for one more month, I think, so when those payments will stop I'll just fill a ticket, they usually answer and do a pretty good job.
I also recommend you to fill a ticket, there are more people working there, not only Michael Wink

I'm going to try use my card for the first time today. Do I need to transfer the money from my Wirex bitcoin account to my plastic card or will it automatically come out of that when I try withdraw from the ATM? Thanks.

I don't use the Wirex card but I'm pretty sure the procedure is identical to the card I have. You will need to first convert your BTC to fiat (which would be your card's currency). The conversion is an automatic procedure during the card-loading process.

If you have a verified account, the transactions limits are generous and high. If you have a non-verified card, be aware of the loading and transaction limits which can be really low.

You need to exchange the BTC to your card if you have the app its very easy to use and very user-friendly.

Hit the exchange button select your bitcoin account and the card you want to load then just follow the app or website

Hi all!

@Pils As I know only Paypal is not usable for payments with unverified cards.

Remarks for other posts:

Our current limits are: https://help.wirexapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/207870815-Wirex-card-limits
As it was said before the limits are per account, not per card and we allow to have only one card in one currency, up to 6 cards: 3 virtual and 3 plastic cards in different currencies: USD, EUR, GBP.

Our current card issuing bank is WaveCrest Ltd (Mychoice). We will add the new card issuing bank soon with the new contactless cards, but until the official announcement, I can't provide any details about it.

Unfortunately, Serbia is not in the list of the supported countries by Wavecrest.
The full list of available countries can be checked over there: https://help.wirexapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/207161779-The-list-of-supported-countries-for-Wirex-debit-card-issuance-and-delivery

Have a nice day!

Hello,

I don't know if this "European territory" has anything to do with the EU, but google maps shows that SR is in Europe Grin

Dear Cardholder

Our prepaid cards will no longer be maintained or issued to cardholders registered outside of our European territory.

Your Visa prepaid card is currently registered to an address outside of our European territory and will be closed on 15th October 2017.

On 16th October, you will no longer be able to use it, so you should use up any funds on it or remove them before that date. We also recommend you stop loading any further funds onto your card, especially as you approach 15th October 2017, to avoid any balance remaining on your card.

So this is an email i got.
I thought Serbia is in Europe but looks like i was wrong.
Anyone suggest any other service that works with Serbia?

Serbia officially applied for European Union membership on 22 December 2009,[6] and the European Commission recommended making it an official candidate on 12 October 2011. After the Council's recommendation of 28 February 2012, Serbia received full candidate status on 1 March. On 28 June 2013 the European Council endorsed the Council of Ministers conclusions and recommendations to open accession negotiations with Serbia.[7][8] In December 2013 the Council of the European Union approved opening negotiations on Serbia's accession in January 2014,[9] and the first Intergovernmental Conference was held on 21 January at the European Council in Brussels.[10]

I would ask them to look into this because as far as I can see this is a mistake. Serbia is in the EU

Can I ask what will happen when the UK leaves the EU will we still be able to use our cards?

Still a month to go loads of time for the op to do what he needs and get out before the switch over.

I did notice that they were going to be changing this and they are also going to offer contactless cards which I am very keen to get my hands on and as far as I am aware it is a first in the bitcoin world for contactless to be offered.

I already have the new card. It's a nice black contactless (with that MasterCard Paywave icon) chipped card. It is issued by a UK finance company.

It also has MasterCard's 2016 logo, two overlapping yellow and red circles. Looks a bit strange but in a nice way. The MasterCard logo on the card looks like this:

With C.Pay on it.

The nice bit is the limit. $5k USD per day. And $5k USD per withdrawal event. Amazing.

By the way, mine is from Cryptopay. I'm assuming Wirex will be using the same card issuer.

I have yet to be contacted about there contactless cards I would really like one I did add my email to the list of "interested" but not word back as of yet.

5K limit is not bad to be honest its actually quite high compared to other cards out there.

This is a ~~good~~ GREAT! service I would advise become verified first before trying to cash that kind of money out but I am sure you could get 8k no problmes with wirex not all in one day I don't think though not sure ATM's can dish out that kind of money in a day to one account.

But do get verified first to save any hassle later down the line when you hit your limit.

Verified Limits are here - https://help.wirexapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001789829-Wirex-verified-account-limits

Plus your better not trying to trust members on the forum to be honest this place has taken a bad turn somewhere down the line and as far as I can see there are scammers here with high ranking account ready to rip people off at every turn.

Wirex use MyChoice corporate [ https://mychoicecorporate.com/ ] For there cards which is a really big big company in the card issuing world (I did some research) So there credentails are valid and they can be trusted with you money.

Send them a quick support ticket if you need more info oh any there app is fantastic easy to use to deposit. Exchange and admin your accounts and submit tickets to the support staff. I was really impressed with the app I had visions of it being buggy. slow, crashing but nope... It is very Responsive and secure and has some good features too.

Enjoy your coins and the freedom that wirex can offer you with there cards.

I have a virtual card and a plastic one and have never had any issues using them anywhere thought I was a bit dissapointed about the withdraw fee but hey everyones got to make a quid or two somewhere down the line.

Hope this helps.

You're right. Better not trying to trust members on this forum, irrespective of rank. You did your research, yes, but it seems you missed that part where Wirex and all other bitcoin card providers will discontinue MyChoice cards after Wave Crest (the issuer of MyChoice cards in Gibraltar) was acquired by Visa International. As a result of that merger and acquisition, the company will follow Visa's preference of restricting the cards to residents of the EU only. All other countries are excluded:

https://mychoicecorporate.com/visa-card-issuance-list/

If you already have a MyChoice card and if you are not a resident of the countries listed on the site above, the card will cease to be valid from 15 October 2017. From that day on, the card will be a mere space taker on your wallet. A souvenir item. A reminder of the good old days when they served one well. I too have this card and it works flawlessly. Loaded it with bitcoins and used it in Bangkok, Singapore, Dubai, Tokyo...

Still a month to go loads of time for the op to do what he needs and get out before the switch over.

Thanks for your reply

No, the limit is USD 2k per day. You could ask family members to apply for the card, fully verify their accounts and they can withdraw on your behalf. Nothing illegal or against the rules with that. However it is not possible for you to apply for multiple MyChoice cards of the same currency. And even if you apply for different currencies, the limit is shared by all cards and consolidated in one single limit of USD 2k. I'm not sure if the new contactless card allows one person to apply for several cards with independent limits per card. I doubt it.

An alternative is to trade your coins on an exchange such as Bitstamp or Kraken and withdraw your money to your bank account.
