heya friends.. i need some help from my indian buddies. i got around $250 in my alertpay account and i have just no option to get it encashed (either in my bank account or by any other method).. so, i have decided to make some online purchase (most probably i'll buy a mobile phone).. so, can you people suggest me of any reliable online store accepting alertpay payment which delivers in india too.. or any other easy way to buy something online! any help is highly appreciated
As one of the options for withdrawing money from Alertpay account is 'Bank Check', you can go for that. Once you receive the check (it may take about 10 to 15 days), you can deposit it in any bank supporting Foreign exchange. I'd recommend Bank of India, Bank of Baroda, CitiBank. Money will be normally deposited in your account in about 3 weeks.
i am not interested in involving my bank account in it as it might cause some legal problems. nor i want to convert it to paper money.. i simply want to make an online purchase.. any chance i could do that?
Just Google for kewords like 'we accept alertpay ship worldwide', 'alertpay ship worldwide' ... You can also try Yahoo, MSN which may deliver different results.
I 've searched Google, it does seem as no merchant really takes AlertPay. Your best bet is trying to exchange that money for something you can cash out / use. But only with your private friends, not in public as this leads to account termination.
