    Hi,

    I like PayPal and am good with it. But just for my knowledge, I would like to know PayPal alternatives....

    I know of AlertPay but don't know if it can be trusted.

    Shoot on with alternatives (if any).

    ^^^ Well, there is nothing wrong in using Alertpay. :)
    You can trust them. :) They are also good like PayPal but not famous and widely used by people in the world.
    Other than that you can also try MoneyBookers.

    Not sure if site is still around but storm pay was another. One that some people use is epassporte not sure if you would be able to use it.

    As an alternative to Paypal, I could easily use Moneybookers, Alertpay or even Google checkout!

    As you guys are following my other threads also and you can see somewhere I made a mistake and having hard time opening a new paypal account.

    Any other alternative processor available ?

    1) Can accept web payment.
    2) Can be withdrawn to Indian Banks.
    3) Fight for Chargeback raised by customer
    4) Widely accepted by USA customers as reputed brand like paypal is.

    If only those sites had enough money to invest in their business like PayPal... PayPal is very good just alot of bad things happen when using them.

    My only suggestion would be MoneyBrookers cause I hear alot of people use that too. My best suggestion would be solve your problems with PayPal, and just try hard to deal with it

    It means PAYPAL is a having a business which is MONOPOLY ?

    No competitor ? Is that the reason paypal limit and block anyone without any reason ?

    If so , then let me leave my job and open a site copy to paypal ;) [ hehe ]
