    Paypal charges nothing to transfer to xoom. For sending money there is no charge

    If u give the code, xoom will not charge anything frm you

    ICICI bank charges nothing when u deposit money form xoom to ICICI.

    These codes can be used limited times, like each code 2 times.
    Then you will have to close account and open new account. Thats your risk :)

    bank wire or WU are two good options for your requirements. WU is good too and I prefer it.

    Cheapest is xoom.com - fee $8 I think.
    Updated...
    It seems Xoom is free if you use the code. ICICI transfer doesn't take any money.

    Kulwinder Paappe what are you up too.
    As I have already told you half information is very dangerous, reps are ok but do not provide half info to DP fellows.

    Firstly starting from yesterday no codes are working for Indians (both XOOMLATINO and Jim are not working)

    Secondly considering the fact that the codes can again be used by creating a new email account, all DP members need to be careful that they use a diff email id and bank account for the transfer else Xoom will catch hold of you.

    Not to worry even if Xoom catches you up as they will ask for additional info to complete the transfer. I know all DP members will be able to provide such info but this will unneccesssarily increase the "transfer process time".

    So better to take the payment in an another bank account.
    However still the name on the PP account and name on bank account should match else Xoom will refund the payment to you.
    (Xoom takes a hell lot of time to refund the payment sometimes upto 7 days so please be careful while transferring funds)

    Also in addition to this Xoom has a facility where you can change the "reciptent's name" in case you made a wrong transaction in the wrong name.

    e.g: Suppose I made a payment from a PP account bearing a name "Arun" but to Xoom but I initiate a transaction from Xoom to a bank account in say "Madhuri's" name.
    Ideally under such circumstances Xoom will refund your payment but even after initialization of such a transaction you can change the name to "Arun" to complete the transfer.
    As Xoom provides such service also so they basically wait for 2-3 days for you to enter the correct info else they refund the amount to you fully.
    Due to this option the time for refund increases.

    Now coming to "risks" associated with making duplicate accounts on Xoom and using the codes again and again.
    The only risk associated with such accounts is that Xoom might ask for "proper documents" which need to be furnished at all cost if you want to complete your transaction. No other risks are associated with such transfers and accounts.

    Thirdly no need to worry I am working a site and a new way to reduce Xoom charges if not completely eliminating them as I can see the codes are not working as of now.
    (I guess Xoom has read my threads on DP forum)
    lol

    Hope this helps.
