    alternatives to paypal

    hey guys,

    i guess im a cheapskate , i don't fancy paying 4% to paypal for a transaction as paypal aren't doing much and if the amt is high as it is in this case the 4% = a lot meaning i have to pay more to cover the costs,

    anyway, i was wondering if someone could help me, what could i use to transfer money from norway - uk and vice versa? Ive used paypal before, i looked at wu but couldnt find a cost,

    thanks

    Paypal was also sued for FRAUD recently, so beware of those idiots.

    Paypal gets sued all the time by idiots. I've used paypal for over a few years now, almost 600 transactions, no problems.

    Western union is the king of rip off! and their rates vary depending on whether you send with cash from one of their locations or if you do it online with a CC. Anyway you do it the amount comes to much more than 4%

    Paypal has been nothing but great to me. There are a few other options out there too like www.Neteller.com . I use that for online poker

    For those of you who use Paypal w/no issues, great!

    It's common sense that NOT EVERYONE will exerience problems, so the "I've never had a problem blah blah" is a given, as some will NEVER experience an issue w/this service.

    That doesn't change the fact that a great number of people DO have issues w/them.
