    The whole fault lies in Paypal. I have seen payment processors in India go through similar issues but they got themselves tied up with banks to escape this. The money transaction is responsibility of the processor and they are not allowed to use this money for any other use or store it.
    Paypal is not maintaining its proper legal presence in India. It is Indian money stacked up in US, that makes it black money. You are exporting something from India and the money is going to US. Paypal can do one thing: tie up with some Indian bank and keep the money there and use that for making payments etc.

    The letter written is ridiculous. Blackmoney on foreign bank accounts are being traced and legal action is being taken.
    It is beating around the bush. There are a lot of points which we are forgetting.
    The paypal if allowed to work as it was then it can be misused. We might not but someone else. We must find a way to work without leaving loop holes. I suggest:
    1. So RBI should allow the use of Debit cards.
    2. Paypal should do away with the 50Rs. charge for less than 7000 withdrawl.
    3. Exchange rate of 50Paisa would be fair enough

    These 3 changes will ensure we work smoothly. What do u guys feel?

    What is the problem with irctc website?

    According to me, irctc is the best site among all the Indian Government related sites.

    www.irctc.co.in/beta_htmls/contact1.html

    Here you can find the email addresses!

    Dont reply to the email address where you get the booked tickets.

    Have you even tried using IRCTC.
    Try booking tickets for tatkal and you will face the reality.

    And watch some TV Channels, this issue is being covered extensively.
    The website falls down each day at 8am when TATKAL ticket opens.

    Well.. I am using IRCTC for the past several years happily.

    8 am server down happens during peak periods. That too in India. I dont have any problems till date on that.

    By-the-way, your first message was about their email bounce problem. You sent the mail to their non-exist mail box and it got bounced. It is not their problem.

    Have you ever tried to sending mails to their EXISTING mail box? I did and got replies every time I mailed them suggestions / complaints.

    No Debit Card. You can only add Credit Card with PayPal Account. Credit Card from any leading bank will work.

    Indian debit cards do not work with PP verifications, you need a real credit card. Also avoid Axis bank credit cards, they do not work most of the time.

    Just read this news:

    http://in.reuters.com/article/2011/02/08/idINIndia-54737020110208

    On one hand, the government talks of reducing transactions costs for exporters and on the other hand, it is screwing up service providers like us by imposing all sorts of restrictions on Paypal.

    Jimmy"ji" lol? I am not sure if there are any "cheap" CC because all the banks follows almost same rules while issuing CCs. I personally have standard chartered credit card. You may need to open an account with them and then apply for CC.

    HDFC lets us create vcc so i guess, everytime we need a high transaction we can add the vcc to paypal, make transaction and remove it right?

    lol. Don't ask in branch. Ask customer support. The banker knows it all. You can create vcc with all savings accounts. It's free.

    Also, is it possible add a card, delete and then add back to the same account later if needed?

    That will not be ideal, as every time you add a vcc or credit card, paypal deducts some $1.50 to $2 as a trial to verify your card (which most of the time they will pay back but sometimes they dont) and hence it is best to add one credit card and use it to send payments, etc!

    You can use HDFC VCC for Paypal verification but you will not be able to buy anything using it. They just work for single transaction only which usually happen when PP charges $1.95 while verification.
