I ever had experience with Agoradesk, trade for multiple times and all went smoothly, so I don't know why you can say it's full of scammers. Probably you're looking for the best rate or they gives too good to be true offers, definitely it's full of scammers.

What's the reason you can't install Bisq? if it's because of firewall or ads block, you need to turn it off. Here's the tutorial https://docs.bisq.network/getting-started.html

Your point is valid re the rates, but thats not the reason for scammers, which is if you use AgoraDesk or the others for >£2000, the scammers try harder. and in general the higher you go the less likely a genuine user fulfills.
this is the problem with p2p

Maybe you had success because you exchanged <£150?

P2P Platforms: Platforms like LocalBitcoins, Paxful, and Bisq allow you to buy BTC directly from other individuals. They often provide a variety of payment methods, including bank transfers, PayPal, and even cash. These platforms typically have escrow services and a reputation system to reduce the risk of fraud.

They often only have 1 or 2 users who can provide meaningful volume. and those users sometimes ask for more KYC than the exchange. Roll Eyes

I don't have any problem buying using my monzo premium card.

Did you try to buy over £3000 in one transaction yet?

P2P is the way forward, but there needs to be more sellers facilitating for big buyers
