Was seamless. Now it's a bit more difficult. Since removing the bank account payment method you're only left with credit or debit card or email option. Not all banks have the email facility available so it's left to the former two. If you don't have the right limits it can catch you out. Would be better if the bank account option was still there.

I can't believe this happened to me, they say fee free first time transfer, but they don't mention if you use your credit card for payment that will be a cash advance withdraw from your card and so your credit card provider will charge you a BIG cash advance fee on your card plus it took way too long to receive the money. I will never use this again.

Hello Seti, please note that when selecting a credit card as payment option, we always show a disclaimer stating your card issuer may charge a cash advance fee and interest for using a credit card. You can avoid these finance charges from your card issuer by selecting a debit card instead.

Transfer rates have increased drastically. It used to be 0.99c when using payid now it's 5$ for the same amount. Service is good. Everything else is simple and I have been using it for many years. Time to look for different options. Update: I think I found a better option and better rates elsewhere. It's better to have standard charges instead of sporadically changing it.
