Yup, multiple options for cash deposit in Canada, including Virtex, Canadian Bitcoins, and more.  There's even mobile phone / SMS  -- though it is more expensive.

My 52.39 btc is also 'missing' sent from one instawallet to another address and the coins are not showing up in the block chain, and the new address isn't showing up either cause its never been used.....

and yet on the address where the 52.39 btc were sent from shows unspent coins but they are no longer in the instawallet

Update: my transaction is now completed, the bitcoins were received into the destination wallet.

yodog, send a PM to user Davout here in the forum. He's the only one who can help you.

Hey, why don't you open an additionnal 10 threads complaining about this issue ?
Don't forget to send 5 PMs and 3 e-mails to the support. Oh wait, you can also tweet and facebook it.
Hey, and maybe you want my personal phone number to text me every five minutes about your 50 BTC ?
And you know, my personal address to stand in front of my door, knock every 30 seconds and wonder if I'm taking care of your issue.

Protip : If you have an issue with Instawallet send an e-mail to the support, and look at a calendar, if the current date is a saturday or a sunday, chances are I am currently not working, so kick back, read a book, get some flowers for your wife, do something interesting, go have a walk, get some good time. You will be taken care of. Nagging about your issue using every possible channel is just incredibly rude and useless.

I work almost every day to take care of stuff and help where help is needed, Instawallet is a free service, so I'd appreciate not being constantly harassed by people who think waiting twelve hours is too much and that they're the only ones to need attention. If you don't like this please go store your coins elsewhere.

Thank you very much for your understanding and consideration.

Yodog is vouching for me. I am interested in selling btc's face2face locally in vancouver, BC and surrounding area!

A couple of hundred dollars worth of btc, or 75btc plus a couple of hundred dollars worth of btc?
