Yes, they accept XMR. Hit them up with your questions, criticisms.

According to my recent test, the premium was 4.7 percent compared to spot rates, hence their pricing is not competitive and Bitrefill remains without a serious contestant. There you'd only pay the ~0.5% fee for going through an instant exchange in order to have your XMR arrive as BTC.

EDIT: Now, a day later, I did another test and got percentages from 1.8 - 2.0 % which is much more reasonable.

Hint: To quickly get the hidden fees of any purchase, execute units like this: ./units.sh '<xmr-cost-at-checkout> XMR' '<EUR|USD|...>' or ./units.sh '<xmr-cost-at-checkout> XMR / <value-in-fiat> <EUR|USD|...>' '%' for the total percentage asked.
