I'm also using moneybooker. Its good. but the problem is majoriy of people in the world use paypal so when we do a transaction most of the time other party ask for paypal. Then some transfer fee for the transaction we make. what is the solution for this? If a paypal owner can direcly transfer some money to our moneybooker accounts without involving any cost moneybooker would be the best alternative.
I also use moneybookers as my first priority and i never faced any problem till now and i just feel good to contact them rather thn asking other people about issues ... Their email support is good and fast so i am quite satisfied with moneybookers ... Yes the great problem is people don't use moneybookers much so its hard for us to deal in MB
Very good choice i've been using this service since 2001 and i never had a problem,very fast and good communication in any problem if there is one
As I am in Pakistan and using moneybookers to collect the money .Please can any one explain me how can I withdarw my money from moneybookers. Is there any way that the money in the moneybooker can be tranferred to the credit card and can be withdrawn at the ATM. I have also opened an account with www.plimus.com and they have send me the debit card. I mean to say that can we link the moneybookers account with the debit card of the plimus (payoneer) Any opinions , views will be highly appreciated Regards
I am also from Pakistan and i withdraw my money from moneybookers to bank account only .. I think so Credit card procedure is easy to use but it require some verification as i heard about it but never used it .. You can use it from moneybookers to ATM by withdrawing your money to your bank account and after having it in your bank account you can withdraw it via ATM too ... Hope its clear n0w
They are pretty good but their "routine security checks" are a pain in the ass since I've submitted my bank statement and state ID multiple times. I don't understand why they can't just keep it on file and refer to it when they do a "routine security check"
My Country is not PP allow So i am use MB last 1 year and i am happy with there service. Long Live MB.
If moneybookers provide better service at a lesser fees....why is the world not collectively moving towards it? Regards, RightMan
just got a email they want copy of passport or other and bills sent to me not older then 3 month. I really dont want to sent such stuff to persons I dont see, such things can be misused so badly. Why is bank account and address not enogh, they could also call one, damn all this security is getting on my nervs in these times you need to keep such thing close to you and give it away here and there and dont transfer any big amounts.
