Isn't Blockchain.info just to create a wallet? Or can one also buy Bitcoins from it?
yes, you can buy via CreditCard or Bank transfer there, think its via coinify. But theres a 3% fee for CC and of course you pay a premium price, eg like $20 more compared to exchanges.
ah ok. Thank you
though i'm not sure if its only for EU customers or worldwide.
can you also recomment a good bitcoin wallet?
I use multibit classic for pc, and mycelium/jaxx for android.
does it cost any fee?
No they are all free.
