Sugestion to acept Western Union Payments

[SlAiD]

Hi there,

This isnt a "pre sales" question, but i dont find any forum when i put this...


Please acept Western Union Payments fro who dont have a Credit Card or a lot of money in their paypal accont, and it a international costumer (outsite USA).

Just an idea. I hope the PowerVPS Administration can do that.

About the payment confirmation, i sugest a print scren or a scanner image of the confirmation for new costumers, and existing custumers can wait 2/3 days untill the money is in the USA and PowerVPS get it.

Best regards,
Rui Cruz aka SlAiD

Most hosting places dont accept Western Union due to fraud that usually occurs with it. I'm sure you can work something out with Pvps since your an existing customer.

We don't accept Western Union, however you can mail a check or send a bank wire (you do have to cover the wire fee we get for incoming wires). E-mail billing@powervps.com if you have questions on how you can pay your bill. :)

Hi,

Hvu, we cant judge and think that all people are bad. So, if this is fraud for new costumers, may one day PowerVPS have it to custumers who paid it a couple of months.

I hope so! ;)


About the check, PowerVPS will lose the money for a couple of days, because for my country recive money from USA, it take 10 buisness day. I think this is the same for Portugal.

But when i dont have any friend (lol) to payd it, i will think in your solution Robert :)

Rui

Also, just in case ya did not know... (some folks don't know so I'm going to toss it out, no offense meant)...

You can pre-pay for a few months in advance if you like. We can generate invoices early for you now that we're in Modernbill, and we can also apply credit to accounts. So if you want to pay for 2 months or more at once so you don't have to think about it so often, that's definately possible as well.

You can also get prepaid Mastercards or use a Mastercard Debit card which draws off of your bank account. It works just like a credit card but if you don't have the funds in the bank, it's denied like an overlimit cc transaction is.

And can i use VISA? I dont have a card using Mastercard networks, because i live in Europe and it is more used VISA here. :)

Visa has them too.ask your bank. They are great and about all I use. Safer than cash, no interest and I get cash back when I use mine. I'm a compulsive spender so using a debit card keeps my butt inline lol!
I noticed Western Union was offering Prepaid credit cards the other day. I think it was around 6 US dollars for the fee so still not bad.

We accept anything with the Visa, MasterCard, or American Express logo on it. :) Credit or debit is fine for any of them.
