I posted some answers in another thread, but if I answer in a thread Biggy just takes it off the wall!!!

GOOD ALGO, GOOD BOY

It's quite common sense really, read The Dazzler's response in this thread also: - https://littlebiggy.com/link/MCkgp8

New UK regulations are to blame apparently. Received an email this morning stating that I would need to complete two new tasks to provide additional information, that they can then use to assess my level of investment knowledge, and to make sure the product and services are right for me.

I couldn't believe I passed it 🤣🤣

Well done! Passed the first part but dont know what question I got wrong in part 2.

I just logged in and didn't see the quiz, does it appear when you attempt to buy?

Yes when you try to buy!

I used it yesterday morning and there was no quiz, wonder why some of us are getting it and some not?

Lucky you - email received at "1111" this morning:)

they do the same 'quiz' on all platforms that you are able to buy/trade crypto and the obvious correct answers are simply common sense to be fair.

Only paid 8 quid on order just now mate on coinbase

Thanks. Done. Paid the same as you (CB) and went thru in seconds.

Awesome mates glad it’s dropped back to acceptable amount for everyone 🥳🥳🥳

Same here, paid about 8 quid fees too earlier.

same here. just hoping Eddie is posting today!!

Looks like he is, mine was just marked as sent a few minutes ago 🥳

yep. just had the same. here’s to a good un.

i was suprisingly impressed with revolut's bitcoin transaction fees. only worked out to be about 12-13 quid.

😳…how times have changed- this time last year we would have been screaming at the injustice of a fee like that, now it’s a result!🥹

have you tried asking them? i wonder what their support is like/

Yes sent an email yesterday.

Have you disputed any charges with your bank/PayPal recently?

Fees are back down to manageable levels, should only be a couple dollars now.

28/04/2024

I use edge wallet I've noticed the price for 1 btc has come down quite a bit and today it only cost me an extra fiver. It was double 2 weeks ago !!

YOUR FUNDS ARE NOT SAFE ON LB !! Be cautious and don't waste your money on here. Borgs are crooked - system is fucked up

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

I got 18 buys, on average more than 500 bucks on each of my purchase

It turned out that within this 18 purchases, within more than a year, I did have issue twice so I had to open disputes.

So far so good, right ? After all that's what the dispute system is made for

So does it make sens that the borgs are now refusing me to open anymore dispute ?
Stating I quote that I am a " bad buyer " and that my " stats are bad " ?

Corrupted staff, shitty system... it's real fucked on here so good bye everyone.

I'm not going to spend a single more penny on here

Tried getting small order in today, bought £80 worth from CB, £3 or so to buy, fantastic i thought, we'll be smoking tomorrow i thought, then i went to send it to my own wallet i was quoted £20.
I'll buy a little more btc tonight and see how gas fees are then, thinking about trying to send in the early hours to see if that helps.

Exactly the same here 😂😭

Good info. Much appreciated. I use CB mostly too but was in the conundrum how much BTC to buy without knowing the sending fee.

It's gotta be an Oz to make it swallowable then at £20.
Annoying near the end of the month before payday when I only want a Q :(

I don't know if a different time will help. 2am here is 9am in China. It's always going to be prime time somewhere.

Gas fees are coming down now it would seem, trick is to catch the wave before they shoot back up again.
Can't see CB fees being £20 right now, the mempool seems quite slick currently.

Good skills.

It used to be just watching the BTC price but now we have to factor in the surges in mining fees too.

This is what everyone buying weed wants to do obviously lol

Fees are still not ideal but much lower than they were five days ago.

25/04/2024

Coinbase still high, £20 to send £58 atm for me

25/4 22:20pm

Yup, just been charged 20 to send to my own wallet, when can we get LiteCoin ffs.

I feel so unlucky to be a Coinbase user during this time as it seems to have higher fees than any other judging by some of the quotes that I've heard people complaining about but that I'd be happy with in comparison. Finally gave in yesterday and bought a 0.5g cart with the btc I had planned to buy 2 full carts with just a week ago when fees were normal lol.

unless you're just timing it wrong with the time of day youre checking it does sound like coinbase are selectively screwing their customers somehow. fees are back to reasonable levels at the time of writing this. I stopped using coinbase after they asked for more documentation after already providing it all previously. imagine if your bank asked for that every year. clowns

Just cost me £22 to send £74... Piss take!

26/4 @ 09:20

Thanks for the heads up, I was just about to place an order. I'll wait.

Never thought it would be middle network fees that would finally force me to reduce how much I consume. Market forces!

I dont usually like to do it this way but I've sent directly from coinbase to the transaxe, maybe as a one off it's something you guys could consider

That's exactly what I did... £22 fee!

£20 currently. 26/04/24 14:05

Kraken exchange! So much better than coinbase imo, cheaper fees.......

Yes mate! £14 to send £210 earlier this week. Cleared with Transaxe in 10 minutes. 😉

26/04/2024 - if sending fees on coinbase are still high it's likely theyre choosing to screw you because the btc mining fees have came back down.

Instead of buying BTC from coinbase buy SOL which is far cheaper. Transfer the SOL to another wallet that can swap SOL to BTC. Then spend BTC on your orders so your only getting hit once on the BTC gas fees.

I bit the bullet at 15 quid on Wednesday. Just checked the fees the now and they're 20 quid. Friday 08:00

total scam prices. hopefully people can jump ship to somewhere else to send btc

It was asking for £200 to spend £200 the other day for me, I dread to look at it!!

Put an order through this morning 26/4 $39 fee on a $120 order.

absolute racket. no idea why they're higher than the network prices.

Mine too. Really nice customer service.

Just got some gypsy haze, one of the nicest smelling buds I've had on LB and vapes lovely. Terps mmmh!

Thank you. GAW

Same here. I've dealt with them a few times.
Really efficient service, great quality products, and I was shocked just how genuinely nice the customer service I received was.
There's no real need for me to shop elsewhere really....x

Thank you for taking your time to comment. GAW

Have bought off GAW a few times now. Amazing service.and loved the Gipsy Haze. :)

The more choice the better even when BTC calms down,not sure how feasible/easy this it to do, I sure don't know how, but hopefully something can get done.

These btc network fees are ridiculous atm, there needs to be a change and an alternative payment system implemented even when btc calms down. I feel like the fees may price out a lot of people from LB and would force people to look for alternatives. Really hope this gets sorted soon as I love LB but I won’t be able to continue using if the fees remain this high. 21/11/23 18:05

Simply won't be able to justify the expense if something doesn't change. Will have to find an alternative, which I'd be gutted to have to do to be honest.

Would xmr (monero) be a better option than btc for fees etc? I don't know an awful lot about crypro just throwing this in the mix

I want to make my monthly purchase but can't and won't with these fees. Anyone having any luck?

Just bought £150 btc on Revolut cost me £7 in fees went through in 30 mins
23/11/23

Think we are all on the same boat, I did check the fees at around 2am this morning 23/11 an the fees was down to just over £7 now it’s nearly 2pm same day an the fees gone back up to just over £9, just a waiting game and time of day seems to make a slight difference 💚

FOR 22/11/23 - 16:03

Is it hard to add another option like litecoin or whatever? Seems like an obvious thing to do but I don't know how it all works for littlebiggy admin... anyone shed any light on why this isn't already an option? is it laziness or some kind of obstacle... or is there a counter incentive... anyone know?

Sustain the dialogue, ladies and gentlemen, and strive to effect meaningful changes. Keep the momentum going and work towards making modifications. ............................GAW

FOR. 22/11/23. I’ve really had enough of paying high fees when there is simply no need for it! LB is just becoming too expensive especially as the pound is dropping against the dollar as well!! Bring in a new coin and change to ££ sterling!! Wake up LB it’s ridiculous!!

BITCOIN CASH (BCH) only decent alternative. Is what BTC should have been, but they didn't want to increase block size so it forked and now look...

Compare it for yourself if you must https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/transactionfees-btc-bch.html#3y

Yesterday, I encountered a challenge when cashing out £3000 to a recipient. The fee associated with this transaction amounted to £350. This fee was a result of the accumulation of various payments, and as a vendor, it's becoming increasingly challenging to manage these costs, especially considering the site fees. Balancing the need to absorb these fees while also keeping costs down for customers is proving to be quite a complex task. GAW

20:40 fees are down to just over £9 it’s going down but slowly 😞 # coinbase

We need this sorted btc situation going to kill the site.

Got his responce from cleanup borg.

little biggy does not process payments. we are seeking payment processors with alternative currencies.

Little help to any vendor or customer, I don’t think anyone is actively seeking as this issue been going on since I joined and most likely before

It’s coming up to Xmas and I would sure love to have my payments for then.

FOR -24/11/23

I've reached out to all borgs, urging them to bring the issue to the attention of the administrators. If each of us sends a message, it could potentially strengthen our case and demonstrate to the administrators that significant changes are necessary for the survival of both vendors and the community. The increasing difficulty posed by fees from both the customer and vendor perspectives needs to be addressed, and collaborative efforts in highlighting these concerns may contribute to a more sustainable solution. GAW

All great points

yip... transaxe down, fees up ... no weed for the weekend again...LB format fails me another week ☹️☹️☹️

That's not good mate, it seems that we just hear about incoming changes but nothing every materializes, we should start to call it the Torrie effect all talk and no trousers.

Sick and tired of seeing lack of action, we need this fixed once and for all ffs!

Try Society. Mine just went through. Still pending but shows half an hour ish until confirmed.

12 dollars on a 120 dollar purchase. Not great but I'm hopefully sorted 🤞

society didn't work for me. my transaction has confirmations and still hasnt moved from "awaiting confirmations" on society/littlebiggy end.

Oh ffs.

If that's the case I quit. Not worth the hassle and cost now. Back to mid level street haze I guess. Fuck.

i feel ya dude. yours is the same? does it have confirmations on the blockchain?

No confirmations but the nice 30 minute wait time quoted, it is now slowly going up...

Mine is saying an hour now.
