    Do you use moneybookers and if no why?

    I know paypal is popular but what about people from countries not supported by paypal. For example i am from Bosnia and i am strictly limited only for paying through Pay Pal and not receving money. So i can do nothing to change that... How do people from other not supported countries overcome this? Advices?

    Moneybookers has an absolutely dreadful reputation for customer service. Have you looked at AlertPay? They had a poor reputation 3 or 4 years ago, but quite the opposite now. I use them and find them a pleasure to do business with. For me, they seem to underpromise and overdeliver.

    AlertPay is good, but not good enough for sales. AlertPay promotes scam compared to PayPal.
    If you're dedicated with your sales, PayPal is definately your best option without doubt for a buyer.

    That's not actually a very helpful observation to someone who can't use PayPal to receive payments, as explained in the original post, is it?! :eek:

    It isn't that Moneybookers is free of scammers, it is that Moneybookers has no dispute system - so a deal is a deal. It's either successful or not, no in between.
