Title: Problems with UK BC exchanges
Post by: BudULike on October 07, 2012, 08:38 am
Both Intersango and MtGox have stopped accepting UK transfers.  Intersango use Metrobank and MG use Barclays. Both exchanges have had to suspend GBP transfers in and out due to 'problems' with their banks.

It's starting to look a little suspicious now.  Anybody have any ideas as to what's going on? Any recommendations for other exchanges?

I just use https://localbitcoins.com/ , using one of the exchanges just seems like too much of a ball-ache at the moment.

if you do a search through the threads there is some great threads which list places and options to get BTC in the uk.
You should check them out

Thanks for both your replies.
Looks like I should have searched a bit harder before posting, there's a massive thread on this forum about this very subject  :-[
