Buying Bitcoins

[DMR]

I am in the process of buying bitcoins and it's my first time. The process from start to end is really really long, is there a faster way?

I am in Canada and currently using QuadrigaCX. I had to send in documents to verify which took 3 business and now the funding option that I can do is bank wire. Bank wire would take 2 business days and the processing by QuadrigaCX would take 2-3 business days (total of 4-5 business days).

Is there any way I can buy bitcoins faster and cheaper so any exchange company whose bank is Canadian? I have an American bank account too so a US based company with a US bank works too, do you guys have any suggestions?

Coinbase?

I made a mistake with my original post and my CAD will not convert to Singaporean dollars before going back to CAD (bank told me so). Thats good to hear but it is still kinda long to wait 5 business days. I guess I have no choice.

Looking through Coinbase, it seems the costs are too high for my liking. Thank you for your suggestion!

i prefer to gamble with bitcoins and not buy coins from random in skype. why ? no escrow.
and in gambling sites game games are in track / have provably fair system.
