Has anyone else had any problems verifying their debit card/bank account with coinbase? This shit is infuriating.
took 3 days for them to accept that my card info was right (eventually accepted the same info it denied)
now, while trying to go through the verification where they send two payments and you tell them how many cents they sent, theyre just fucking wrong. for 2 days in a row they deposited 3 amounts so i couldnt figure out which 2 amounts to enter, and finally today they actually send 2 payments, and they tell me the amount im entering is wrong when it is not. 3 tries and you wait another 24 hours. getting in touch with coinbase support it useless.
wtf am i supposed to do? I have 6k i was going to deposit and i flat out cant. this shit is what will limit new money from coming onto the market. a normie would throw their hands up and walk away immediately.
cant believe how hard it is to buy fucking bitcoin.

Dunno. Heard about Coinbase and Bittrex first, finished looking up "best altcoin exchanges" and Bitstamp seemed fine.
Sent them 10k via bank remittance yesterday.
cant wrap my head around why they make this so tedious.
send them scanned copies of my ID and utility bills to bitstamp? are they serious?
fuck it, i quit.
this is what will limit the market.

Compare it to opening a bank account. You handle with money after all.
This isn't a bank account with federal oversight and protection though. Its a foreign website. Why on earth do they need so much? Why does it take days? Makes me feel LESS secure hablving to go through so much shit and send legit documents.
I underestimated how young all this really is. If they require all this shit, the websites should actually work. I can't imagine that millions of people have successfully completed all these steps. It should be straight forward as fuck to get money on a n exchange. Maybe I'm being a baby buy it just seems ridiculous
