I have read almost each and every line written about xoom on this forum and also done lots of research , but i could not find find answer to one question . Here is the question ; I am from Nepal and i have a friend in India who have a paypal verified by a VCC. Can he send me money through xoom from his paypal account to me in Nepal? Please remember : Paypal is still not fully available in Nepal , it is still in "Send Only" mode. Nepal and India both are in Xoom acceptable country list. And how long will the transfer take ?
If Nepal is in the list of Xoom then my answer is yes that its possible. BTW do one thing then, leave a email to xoom through their contact us page with asking same thing as above and they will give you proper answer for this.
Thanks , i have already sent them mail , but not got a reply . I have seen that their are lots of Indian user here who are using Xoom , i would like to hear what they have to say on this .
Agree that lots of indian users using xoom but i don't think so any of them using it to transfer from indian paypal to Nepal, thats why told you to contact them through their contact system. They are very co-operative and giving always reply for your any querry in time based on my experience.
as for the transfer, it depends, for pick-up, it will be available immediately but for direct bank deposit, takes about 2-4 days, because xoom still requesting the verification of deposits made to your bank account. I think there will be no problem on transferring.
There is no risk in giving it a try as they refund your money if they going to cancelled your transaction IMO. But safe thing is that before proceed ask them this is better
