    Most users are confirming that Moneybookers is much better than Paypal but when it comes to the reality most users use Paypal instead of Moneybookers, since these companies are doing the same kind of business with one difference: Paypal was the first one and Moneybookers tried to be a alternative.
    In fact there is no difference at all between Moneybookers and Paypal, users who use Paypal won´t really add Moneybookers to their basket, since it could be understood by them to use two Paypal´s instead.
    Thank you, see you soon. :D

    Moneybookers is in some cases much better than paypal. Paypal sucks sometimes. But still paypal is more widely used system and money bookers is small in front of it

    i think people in unpopuler countries should use moneybookers, because paypal works with 101 countries. but moneybookers works with all countries. so i think moneybookers will widly spred all over the world in long run.

    Recommended to be used as paypal alternative (Y)

    No problems with MB here. I've been using it for more than a year... I've been using it to send/receive payments and money transfer to Croatian bank account and everything seems to be fine...

    There is none compared to PayPal.

    I have been using PayPal ever since I used the internet for my online transactions and they have been really nice.

    Exactly Ba7!
    People who have paypal supported don't like to use other processors because paypal is quite good but for people with no paypal Money bookers seems to be the best. Easy to upload, easy to withdraw makes it perfect for people , specially when it is accepted world wide.

    Theres no chance that moneybookers can be some kind of a scam but thou they are serious professionals but few things they do catch my attention, a lot of times, for example from moneybookers FAQs:
    Professional companies don't do that, i can ignore that NOT in the answer afterwards but the other one is strange.

    When they freeze your account they steal all your money. You can get it released.

    Moneybookers is by far the worst payment processor imaginable, much worse than PayPal.

    It's a scam.
