How do i use MTGOX without using international banking?
I have a UK bank and a debit card but there are no options unless i send money abroad causing huge fees.!

they used to have a uk account with barclay's but it got shut down quite a while ago. british banks hate bitcoins. i'm not sure if its due to anti money laundering laws or if they just see it as a threat or are getting pressured by govt but the same thing has happened a couple days ago with blockchain and months ago with intersango. i don't think any big exchanges have uk bank transfer options anymore. there are some legit btc vendors on the road but use at your own risk because they could turn scam at any time tbh.

From another topic earlier today:
UK transfer through transferwise.com to Mt.Gox or any other EU exchanges bank account
I've not tried this method myself yet but will do so the next time I need to buy some coins as it will be much cheaper than doing a sofort transfer from your bank.
