== Anycoin Direct ==
Hi there!

Could our company (https://anycoindirect.eu) be added? 

We buy and sell bitcoins instantly in Europe, offering many European payment methods: 
*iDEAL (NL)
*Giropay (DE)
*Sofort Banking (DE)
*Bancontact / Mister Cash (BE)
*MyBank (LU & IT)
*SEPA (EU)
*Online Bank Transfer (EU)

We focus on new bitcoiners, offering support through:
*Live chat
*Toll free telephone number
*Email

We instantly send the bitcoins after a successful payment, so we don't hold customer funds.

== BTC Guys LLC ==
Please delete my site. I am no longer selling Bitcoin.

Hello again!

Like the chaps at Brawker, I think you may not have seen my message further down the page, so I hope you don't mind me moving it here as I see it has worked for Brawker. :)

Our company, [https://www.independentreserve.com Independent Reserve], is an Australian based Bitcoin exchange trading XBT/USD. We allow international customers to transfer funds via SWIFT transfer into our USD trust account, and Australian customers can use BPAY. Would appreciate a reference on the page if that's possible.
:What category do you think this should be placed in? :) [[User:Taras|Taras]] ([[User talk:Taras|talk]]) 22:25, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

Hello again!

I've tried to add Brawker before but I don't think you guys read my message further down. :(

Brawker is a very easy and different way of buying bitcoins. People can buy bitcoins using Paypal or credit card on [https://www.brawker.com Brawker]. With Brawker bitcoin buyers buy items at online merchants for people interested in paying with bitcoins. When they receive the items the bitcoin buyers receive the bitcoins that were held in escrow during each transaction.

Thank you!

Our site is [https://www.expresscoin.com expresscoin.com]. We want to add a payment method by USPS Money Order, Personal checks, and be added to the other payment methods. Can we get granted edit rights for this? Happy to help manage and update for others as well. [[User:Expresscoin|expresscoin]] ([[User talk:Expresscoin|talk]]) 00:19, 29 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi!

Could I add Brawker to this version? This is a very easy and different way of buying bitcoins.

You can buy bitcoins using Paypal on Brawker.com. With Brawker you buy something at an online merchant for someone who is interested in paying with bitcoins. When the person receives the item, you receive the bitcoins that were held in escrow during the transaction. You can also pay for the item with a credit card.

Thank you!

[[User:Ibai|Ibai]]

-----------------------------

To other guy: You can have international section. {{unsigned|ChampBroc2}}

I'd like to add a section for Canadian Interac Online. Could I have edit rights? {{unsigned|Gradoj}}

== CoinTouch ==

I run [https://www.cointouch.com/ CoinTouch] (finds friends of friends that trade crypto currency). The site allows decentralised trading with trusted social network connections. I would like to update this page (and [[Getting_started]]) in order to include CoinTouch. Please could an admin do this, or grant me permission to do so. Thanks --[[User:ChrisBeach|ChrisBeach]] ([[User talk:ChrisBeach|talk]]) 12:35, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

== Cryptopay ==

Dear moderators. We are Cryptopay, a UK based exchange, wallet and payment processing company. We offer EU and UK clients an easy way to buy and sell bitcoin using their bank account (SEPA transfers and Faster payments). Can you add us?

Cheers,

[[User: Cryptopay|Cryptopay]]

Hi, suggest to add https://coins.ph. This site has the fastest way to buy and sell bitcoin in the philippines and Thailand they also have online wallet.

== Please add Bitcoin Magnet to the list ==

Dear Mods,
Please can you submit the following entry to this page:

BANK TRANSFER > UK ONLY > BitcoinMagnet.co.uk

"allows customers to buy & sell Bitcoin automatically using their UK bank account. All you need to provide is an email address and either your bitcoin wallet address (if buying) or your bank account details (if selling). For buying, they give you a unique reference code to include with your bank transfer. All future transfers that include this code will be automatically converted to Bitcoin and sent to you. You can therefore set up a regular standing order if desired. For selling, they give you a unique Bitcoin deposit address to send coins to. All future payments to this address will be automatically converted to GBP and sent to your UK bank account. They use the latest Bitstamp market price and aim to complete orders within 10 minutes. The fee is currently 5%."

Many thanks,
John
@ http://www.bitcoinmagnet.co.uk
