HI Guys... I have got an email from XOOM that they have no more with Paypal After March 24, Xoom Will Not Accept PayPal As a Payment Method Dear Deepak Chand, After Wednesday, March 24, 2010, Xoom will not accept PayPal as a payment method for money transfers. Any PayPal-funded transactions that have been placed before that time will be processed as usual. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this change in our service may cause you. Other Payment Options You will still be able to pay for Xoom money transfers after March 24 by using a United States bank account, a debit card or a credit card.

This is really bad news! I was waiting for their Indian Bank withdrawal to begin... to initiate my withdrawal since they offered lot better exchange rate than Paypal. I guess I will now have to revert back to using good old paypal! Regards, RightMan
damn I got the same mail I don't know why Xoom stopped even after major security issues has been solved by paypal.
they just missed one golden opportunity for their own growth. its really funny instead of taking advantage they decided to give up
I do not think they gave up intentionally... rather they must have been forced to do so! When Paypal was sorting out its issue with RBI, it must have realised the huge withdrawals from its accounts into Xoom for transfer to India. In order to protect their interest, they must have complained to RBI about this route, which resulted in this termination.. I guess! Regards, RightMan
Hello, really I have the impression of which Paypal is preparing some strategic move. I do not believe that it has been a coincidence that 2Checkout has renewed his place at the same time that Paypal and Xoom have broken his dealing. Paypal was not gaining anything with his agreement with Xoom. But I believe that yes they win very much sending his most of clients to 2checkout.
well, when talking about xoom, i can say " i dont care " why because everytime i use to send payment from paypal last time, they keep rejecting my request so many times. lol and i hate asking why
