I've never used either service; moneybookers.com or escrow. That being said, I am looking into options for payment services. I have a few questions to ask. However, customer service is closed So, I figured I'd ask here 1. Are both services(listed in title) honest and worthy of my time? 2. How does seller receive payment? Via check, money order or ? How long does it take to receive payment? 3. Is there a limit on how much $$$$ a personal account can receive per month? 4. What are the rules in regards to protection against fraud? Example: say if I purchased a website for $300 and site is never transferred over to me. Of course I'd want my $$$ returned. 5.What is the proper URL to escrow? I've looked at escrow.com but not sure if that is the correct URL. 6. When sending payment does both service give the option to write up a detailed decsription of what you are paying for? Like a contract If there are any other excellent payment services online, please send me details. Oh yeah, do not list Paypal as an option. I already know about them.
I worked with moneybookers and I liked it. It seems that they are very reliable because you cannot open an account immediately. They make some basic checks. You upload money to your moneybokers account, then send money to the seller. To send money you just use sellers e-mail within moneybookers interface. Yes. But you can apply for bigger limits by signing some papers. I used ikpobo, but I didn't like them because of bad service...
Moneybookers also has an escroiew service and it is quite good. I use it for some transactions here at DP as well
