Help! my bank wont allow me to buy bitcoin, looking for a solution

[mikemike321]

Hello, My name is Mike, I'm from Sweden, I am trying to buy BTC using Kraken, my bank is Nordea and won't let me transfer the money to Kraken for the reason that is a cryptocurrency, I even tried from another bank in Sweden and they decline the transaction as well.
it pisses me off that they don't help me do whatever I want with my money,

I tried to set up an account with TransferWise, but it seems that they don't do any de[posit to cryptocurrency websites.
I don't know what else to do. does anyone have any solution to how I can buy bitcoin from Sweden?

Thanks

Try to open bankera, pervesk, blackcatcard, misterta ngo account.
Send money from your bank in Sweden to these accounts (like a personal transfer from your one account to another).
After it, send money directly to the crypto exchanges. Above emi support it. You could use any crypto exchange with legit history: kraken, bitstamp, cex, binance.

Use P2P markets like localbitcoins, is the best way to avoid that kind of issues (but always checking the reputation of the users)

Do not use Pervesk or Mister Tango. You can use a real bank like Fidor. It's german but support in English is easily available.

Thanks for the replay, although can you help me understand how I can use their services? I mean should I open an account with them? and do a direct deposit to my account?

Fidor bank only allow personal bank accounts to be opened for foreigners. You may use kraken or AdvCash or Blockchain to buy bitcoins or other crypto, once you have bitcoins you can exchange to almost any other crypto using for instant Exodus or similar.

Exodus doesn't provide two-factors authentication, users are unable to set commissions for transactions and it's closed-source, high commissions, shallow market depth.

Is it possible to open a remote account in Fidor Bank ?

OP you may use the following list:

• Advcash. You deposit via SEPA, from your own bank account and then withdraw in BTC.
• Plasmapay. A service similar to Advcash. Use carefully since it's quite new.
• Globitex. Gibraltar exchange with Lithuanian EMI licence. It will provide you a personal IBAN to deposit your funds and straight buy BTC. Your bank will just see a SEPA transfer to a personal account of yours.
• P2P exchanges as Localbitcoin.com or Paxful.com. There are a lot of trusted sellers here that will accept, on their personal bank accounts your SEPA transfers and send you BTC.

Bankera ?

Personal IBAN account in your own name
Crypto Exchanges (transfers to/from) SUPPORTED

All free.

Tansfer for your bank to Bankera, and Bankera to kraken

@mike123456, the services I listed are trusted and well established.
Only Plasmapay is recent and with no-low feedbacks. However looks promising.

 

[lavel]

Another vote for AdvCash - never had problems and doing many transactions with them every day for years.

 

[speedster]

N26 is also an option and can be opened remotely

 

[Granwasa]

N26 is NOT crypto friendly.
Most likely your transfers will be freezed and your account closed.
OP, be careful.

How sure are you? I've transferred Eur1.9m to Kraken and Bitstamp the last three months

Is Fidor really trustable? Their trustpilot reviews are really bad..
