    I am not a big fan of Paypal so right now I am considering getting a Moneybookers account. Like all other online pay methods, it has its pros and cons, some people like it, some people don't. The way I see it, there are more and more people complaining and saying they are not satisfied with Moneybooker's service nor are they that happy with Moneybooker's customer support.

    I want to know what experiences you have with Moneybookers. Are you recommending it? If you have had trouble using Moneybookers, can you tell me what I should avoid doing? Have you any tips? I heard some people have trouble with verification.

    I can get you set up with an internet-based credit card processing company that'll have cheaper rates than Moneybookers. It's up to you. Have you been in business long?

    Yep, the verification step is really a pain one. I've requested the confirmation letter but not yet got it :(

    Confirmation letter normally takes around 2 weeks. In mycase the letter was arrived within 9 days. Be sure to use accurate address as the letter delivered by ordinary post

    I don't remember the troubles described here, I got my moneybookers account veryfied with Credit card, address and bank account within a few days, okay about 1 week or so, but no problems at all. I find moneybookers to be a way better alternative to paypal than for instant Liberty Reserver and all the other e-wallets.

    Doesn't work in the US, so if your customers are US based it's worthless.
