This is going to be a very quick post, which is a reflection on the speed and simplicity of using Atomic Wallet (which uses Simplex for transactions).

After weeks of fighting with Coinbase and Coindirect, the support staff there still haven't solved my issue, despite me throwing my toys, giving them an earful and nagging them to do their jobs. However, today I happened to have the bright idea of trying to go through Virwox (which I'd used before, but the fees were high). Sadly, Virwox is no more, as of about a year ago. So then I tried exchanging fiat for crypto directly through the Atomic wallet. Wowsers! Talk about simplicity! It took about ten to fifteen minutes to go from starting the process, uploading my identification, to having BTC in my account. Simplex by name, simplex by nature. What an outstanding job, folks! I really am as pleased as punch! XD
