I'd go with EDZ,
The ICICI Money2transfer service is real good, but as again they have charges!
Why don't you want to use paypal ? Are you paying for some service ?

Can they withdraw money from their paypal account? IF yes then how?

 

For only $20 the recipient should be willing to take the time it takes to set-up a paypal account. Don't see why it would need to be ASAP, unless of course its drug money. lol

To withdraw the cash they will need to transfer it to their bank account.

 

Well if you owe some one money, its obvious that they will ask for it and will say that they need it ASAP. and more over if i am paying it them! why late? It will create doubts in their mind. That's y i want to pay it asap.

Does pay pal allow to withdraw money via bank account in India?

 

oh, i See. It is drug money then.

I'm not sure how paypal works in India but i have a php coder I use who is in India and I pay him via paypal.

 

I am looking for a coder also... do you have any good one?

 

I'll pm you

 

Thank you... R u from Kamloops?

Am from Vancouver.. neighbours EH?

 

It might delay for longer but Postal Money Order is still the cheaper method to send money worldwide.

Add safety by send it via registered Mail.

 

Thats a good one Mystique. I'll have to remember that.

Howdy neighbor.

 

they can withdraw from paypal but the minimum threshold is $150 i.e. they can withdraw only after they reach $150

 

or you can try sending money to your friend who has paypal

account and stays in india

and is willing to pay that money to your homeland

the cheapest but risky job

but only if his your trustworthy friend

 

Western Union???

You can also try a bank wire transfer (don't know though if there is a minimum for that)
