    Hi,

    I am thinking of opening an AlertPay account but just before i get scammed i just want to know what is your honest opinion on AlertPay.

    And also I need to transfer my PayPal funds to AlertPay so where can i exchange?

    I know its not allowed to exchange in DP but i just want the info where i can go for it.

    Thank you

    Hi,
    Yes you can trust Alertpay.. it's used by many people (like me) and I don't have complaints about it... but still I prefer Paypal as it is more used than Alertpay ;)

    And I won't answer the exchange question.. :D

    Alertpay is safe and it is widely used by PTC sites for making payments as paypal don't support PTC sites anymore. You may find some person in some forums who can exchange your paypal funds to alertpay but it is highly illegal and Paypal and alterpay none of them supports it. You have high chance of getting scammed if you are trying to exchange paypal to alertpay.

    Aww, that's disappointing. I don't do PTC stuffs but i heard that PayPal is well known for getting scammed by other user who buys digital stuffs by opening a case. And also heard that PayPal take money if i store too much in it. A lot of people complained that.

    I have using AlertPay for years, and I have never faced any problems. I prefer it more than PayPal, because everyday I keep reading stories how their PP account got frozen for stupid reason. Transferring from AlertPay balance to your Bank account takes 3-5 business days.

    I've been using AlertPay for the last few months and now strongly prefer it to PayPal for quite a variety of reasons. Whereas two or three years ago I think PayPal probably provided better customer service and were more reliable than AlertPay, the position really seems to have reversed now.

    I know of no way to transfer money from PayPal to AlertPay other than via your bank account or credit-card.

    I have never had any problems with AlertPay but I do recommened keeping your paypal open as an extra option. Some people may be wary like yourself when they see it as an option to pay for things. I would keep Paypal as an option for payment considering the amount of people who not only use it but are comfortable with it. I think paypal has some problems, and they can be a real pain sometimes, but it is the payment method almost everyone is familiar with.

    Don't be an idiot it is not illegal to exchange funds between payment processors it is just against Pay Pals terms of service and possibly alert pays as well. There is a big difference between against terms of service and illegal.

    I am about to join alertpay as well, I suppose the more options you give your customers the better.

    they used to close my account, but they restored it.

    mayve they thought i was a scammer who got fraud fund. Just email, explain the source of the fund then it's good.
