Quote from: geedogg on August 04, 2012, 06:16 pmIt's a shame because there is no better or quicker service available for people in the UK to obtain BTC when they are running smoothly. But I have to say, I'll be giving them a wide while this is going on and have looked to alternatives, but they are just not as convenient for me as using Intersango.As previous posters have said, aside from the fact that the Bitcoin purchases can be linked to your identity (which in itself is a very compelling reason to avoid exchanges!), Intersango used to be able to process orders within a few hours on a good day. However given that their own bank can arbitrarily freeze their account at any time and given the strong possibility that the whole company's been run from some teen's bedroom I'd say look to the alternatives - that doesn't necessarily mean that everyone has to use my service of course, we've seen localbitcoins already, Craigslist will also sometimes list them.V.
