paypal did it again.from now on till their problem gets solved with indian goverment,bank withdrawal option will be removed from tomorrow,they have already removed card withdrawal.
so from now on only checque withdrawal,which is just worthless as for as i am concern(which takes 25-45 days to receive).
i just lost all my confident on paypal.they are no longer reliable for indians,and they may stop all transaction with india(note maybe)
i just don't want to use paypal if i have to use checque!
admin can you please provide alternative payment processor if possible

Paypal done very bad thing to indians. For cheque payment the service charges are very high, so it affects the online workers very much. so pls don't do this.

Yeah, I lost my $5 which I made from trekpay as they refunded it to trekpay since there were problems sending personal paymenyts to Indian members and though I contacted trekpay they never gave it back to me.

It is really tough to earn online without paypal. I always notice most of the sites online require paypal to pay for anything, and paypal as i have been with it is never been much friendly to Indians. It is really sad that now they got up with one more problem to go with. I just hope they don't completely shut down the service.

for me and most of the indian members(i believe) if paypal don't resume the bank withdrawal then it doesn't matter if they continue to do business in india or not,becasue most of the indians certainly me won't use them anymore.
btw thanks for your concerns:)

oh that is really bad to hear for indian members. it is going to affect the earning of indian members as there is no easy way for them to receive their money. that is why i don't use paypal much. i only receive paypal payments from this site or from mylot. anyways, i am not from india and so i am not affected directly but in a way i still get affected cause i feel that if paypal is getting or having problem with some country i fear that they soon also have problem in our country. i just hope that it will not happy in our country that we will still continue to have this bank withdrawal option like what we do now.

Yes, I too rceived this message today morning..You are right ..but what can be done, if they have changed..( but atleat they have agreed, refunding the cheque charges of USD 5.0 )
Alertpay is the other option but I have noticed there are less users of this..I have recently joined and so have not much experince on this.
Good Luck

yes we can do nothing about it.but we can leave papal if we want and use many alternative that are available online(if want).
5$ refund of checque is just nothing to me as it because i don't want to receive my cash after 25-45 days,i better find an alternative which i can do for most of sites i use but i hope it happens in mylot becasue this is my favorite site.
also alertpay has many many members and they are very reliable,yes they have some minues ,but they aren't as bad as paypal as for as i am concern for indians.

well if you search a bit(which i did) you can get the answer that fault is on both site and you just can't say that indian goverment is the reason for this,each country has different rules,if paypal comply with it(but beleive they are trying to do so),then this will happen,bad for members

Hi Mahesh,yes it is bad news as of now, but remember there were some issues with RBI in Jan-10 as well and they were sorted out afterwards. So I guess this will be also for some time, as after Jan they have made it compulsary to have PAN card details for Indian users and also having to put some code while withdrawing funds. So it is becoming more secure and transparent in terms of transactions. As to avoid black money transfers and illegal money. Government has to think in all possible directions and slowly they are taking steps. SO I guess lets wait and watch and till that time keep on accumulating amounts in paypal. You can also go for Alertpay as second options, but it has its own pros and cons. I would better stuck with Paypal for some time and wait the results.

yes, its hurts, i have been replied that it would take time before they can resolve the issue. try now there is only one option for me is liberty reserve, which pays with in 7 days. alertpay and paypal would take at least a month.....why don't they just stick to one......
