 Moneybookers or Google Checkout ?
Someone who buys from me every so often is wanting to send me £250. Normally we would of used PP, but my usual account was suspended and I don't want to put that amount as a single transaction in to my stealth account (that is maturing and not being used yet).
So I have a verified personal MoneyBookers and GoogleCheckout, both fairly new, not used Moneybookers yet for any transactions but used GoogleCheckout about 5 times for sub £50 transactions. Only problem I have had so far with Google was they kicked up a fuss that I was accepting payments via email rather than a URL. Not sure why they offer the email invoice option if it is a problem. But anyway, since that email it has been fine and the funds have slowly moved to my bank account after 10 days hold (I can cope with that amount of hold).
Which of the two companies is less likely to trigger a money hold ? This is not an EB sale, just something I have been asked for via email. They have to use credit card to fund their account or pay via, so SWIFT is not possible. AlertPay doesn't seem to be accepting credit cards at the moment.
So what would you suggest ? There is nothing dodgy about it, and both accounts are in legit info, I just want to use the easiest and smoothest method for the transfer of £250 without triggering lengthy holds or docs or anything annoying.
