Bitcoin users in Canada
« on: January 17, 2017, 11:16:51 AM »
Guys,

I'm trying to use bitcoin because of it's so called efficiency.
I set up my wallet and so on (certainly not as user friendly as paypal).

Only to find out I couldn't link my bank acct,  only my Charge card.

Bitcoin sent me an email saying that they no longer have a relationship to send or receive currency via the bank or CC company.

Fortunately we have recently launched the ability for Canadian customers to purchase digital currency with a linked credit or debit card but it will not be possible to store CAD directly or sell digital currency for CAD. It is also not possible for Canadian customers to link US-based bank accounts at this time.

They gave me a link but the link seems to say that if you buy btc with your can dolars, you can then contact them and get a refund or give them your bank info and they will send you the money.

In other words not as automatic but it gets done.
I want to know if I am understanding this correctly.

Are there any Canadian based users here who can enlighten me?
I don't need to know about the experience from other countries as it is not relevant.

Thanks,
VB

vb are you into bitcoin mining? i know a fella that setup some computers for this.

it really sound like a scam. i mean, it sound like them fellas in china that spend night and day on some world of warcraft game and sell that fake money on e-bay.

but i heard bitcoin set to take off when blockchain start to hit.
