Spot Check -Changelly
At what point is it fair to call this a bait-and-switch?
--
I decided to check-in on Changelly, after receiving 9.75% less Bitcoin than quoted last time around. Changelly only provides estimates (coyly, IMO), unlike Shapeshift, who provides direct quotes.
I went to Changelly.com and it showed that .55629836 LTC would convert into .00895105 BTC ($22.47).
After hitting the Exchange button, the next screen also said that I would “GET” .00895105 BTC.
I hit the Next button and it’s on this 3rd confirmation page that I am subtly told that .00895105 BTC is the “estimated amount” that I will receive.
I made the payment and here’s what I received:
20% less!!! I received .00709361 BTC ($17.81).
Quote: .00895105 BTC ($22.47)
Actual: .00709361 BTC ($17.81)
