    Just sent email.
    
    Hi,
    I am an unemployed freelancer making few thousands rupees per month from abroad , now that RBI has stopped paypal the ability to withdraw money to indian bank account, it will become very difficult for lakhs of freelancers who are using paypal to receive foreign funds and then using it to withdraw money to bank account.
    Withdrawal of cheque does not work most of the  times, since we may not earn more than 150$ per month , the cheques takes too much time to get delivered , many times the cheque gets lost 
    
    
    If you do not want people to work as freelancer and get money from abroad , please provide us job in india else RBI is responsible for driving lakhs of unemployed freelancers to commit suicide or starve to death.
    RBI has also stopped indian paypal users to use paypal fund for buying things like web hosting and domain registration ,etc which are necessary for functioning as freelancer in this competitive world.
    We do not want to get credit card for paying few dollars of domain registration and web hosting fees , when credit card company makes us  defaulter by crooked means and come to take over our property , car ,etc will RBI come to save our family that it is recommending that we should get a credit card for paying few dollars necessary to keep our freelance profession alive.

    Yes, there must be at least 100 ppl here ( at least). If all send mails to Fahad Irani and Anuj and also to RBI, we can at least put some amount of pressure. I will mail everybody today ( when electricity comes back f**k govt departments and when I get my BSNL connection repaired (again f**k govt departments) - using Tata Indicom backup). It;s the same situation in every department :( The country is going to dogs and nobody cares.

    == Yes, you are probably right, but if we all sent a mail morning and evening, they have to at least take notice. I don't mind visiting the RBI office. Is there a list somewhere that notes addresses of RBI offices in different cities?

    == Great going. I don't know anything about the cc withdrawal option, and they've not updated anything on their blog yet.

    ==cheers. I have sent 2 mails to them too.

    == I hope you'll support this initiative

    == Power down in the rains, haha, we obviously know that feeling. Hope your day gets better, and we can all successfully try to communicate with concerned officials.

    Here's a summary of what we can all do, so someone begins to communicate with us:


    • Everyone should probably get onto https://www.thepaypalblog.com/ == I commented on the blog that concerns us but it's awaiting moderation :(
    • We can mail PayPal officials
    Farhad Irani - PayPal
    .
    Anuj Nayar – PayPal

    • Send mails to Indiatv(through site at contact us), , and ndtv(through site at contact us)
    • RBI ==Here's their email http://www.rbi.org.in/scripts/helpdesk.aspx


    If anyone has anymore correct email addresses or phone numbers, kindly list them so we can all benefit.


    Please be reminded that any payments received into your PayPal account from the export of goods and services cannot be re-used for making purchases or any other payments.
