Thread: Moneybookers or Paypal

need advice.

I have learned that Moneybookers now allow users to upload money via E-nets.
Under their fees listing in my country, Euro$1.80 is being charge as withdrawal fee.
Anyone here use MOneybookers?

It pretty interesting to know that they provide nowE-nets facility.

i have an account, but i prefer to use PP because of popularity.

^ ditto that. I have only used moneybrokers when selling domain names to some people who only have that available. I wasn't aware of their new features though, thanks for the heads up!

paypal is most popular. I prefer payapl

well i also prefer paypal.
moneybookers is just another backup/alternative for those
who can't have pp (as u said)

I prefer PayPal. I've been using it for years and never had any issues.

I have had issues when scammed for small amounts on eBay. After winning the dispute PP say "Aww shame. We couldn't get the money from their account.Too bad for you loser." Or words to that effect, I can't remember rightly.

I just signed up for MB the other day as an online casino didn't take PP, but did take MB instead. It's good to have another option I suppose.


A post over on DP suggested that scammers tend to pay with PP but want paid with MB. Mainly because PP won't chase it up and they can get away with it.

Well, I was scammed on ebay once, I got a box with old plug and play games instead of xbox 360. The person had fake phone number and etc.

PayPal refunded everything. They refunded $200 right after I won the dispute, and rest few months later, since the person scammed other people.

Getting scammed and etc is not PayPal's fault.

I use paypal mainly but I do have

Moneybookers - for those who can't pay with paypal.
Google checkout - mainly used for buying things.
Escrow - for large transaction to prevent scam
egold - some people prefer this type of payment.

I've heard stories where PayPal has been bad for ebay sales, luckily, I don't use it for that, probably why I haven't had problems so far.

True it's not PP's fault, it's the evil people out there, but they often don't do a great deal to help.

Never knew they has that feature, i prefer moneybookers over any payment processor, it's just paypal is so overused no one has an option.

At the moment I use paypal but I have just recieved my confimation letter from moneybookers today so I will probably use both in the future and slowly work my way off paypal if possible.

I use moneybookers for payments to and from Europe quite often, but use paypal for the majority of transactions, and also ikobo sometimes.

Definitely prefer PayPal

paypal is most popular and I prefer payapl

PP user here. Have MB and 2CO for people who don't want to pay with PP.

Never had any problems with any.

Mainly PP, but with MB I got no probs.

I have used PP for years,

At the moment I am looking to start my own merchant account thru my bank, as they are running an interesting offer, and the volume of my transactions is getting up to where it needs to be in order to justify it!

I have been using paypal now for hmm over 8+ years, they are the lifeline of my business.

I have never had them close or suspend my account, u just got to know
and understand their policies. Once you do, they are the best
way to do business.

Fast!, very secure and now 1 of the biggest and most common used
merchant system on the net.

They got my vote 4 life :1943:

I like moneybookers but allot of ppl just like paypal. I do plan to use alertpay for my adult sites tho, since pp and mb don't allow adult related stuff to be sold, adult toys, etc.

been using paypal considerably long.
i still find it an all around gateway.
i have moneybookers but my clients all prefer paypal

I think Paypal is better because its easy to use and most people use it.

Paypal FTW!

Sending and receiving is free for personal account holders of paypal so it's paypal for me

i think paypal is best as it very popular and providing the good service too

popular, yes. and very.
but then again, in due time. hope google checkout will soon catch up.

Paypal simply the best

Paypal all the way
