A Better Way? “I need some advice. We have been using pay-pal for the Grand Canyon club and it is the pitts. Is there something better out there?” 8:41:44 AM 7/26/02 Here you go MaryPhyl 9:01:51 AM 7/26/02 “If you don't like PayPal you'd better watch it with ebay. ebay just bought PayPal and are planning to use it as their payment processor. I work for c2it.com, another online money transfer service. Right now it is set up as an individual consumer service and I don't know if it would fill your clubs needs. It is a Citibank product.” 10:47:37 AM 7/26/02 “Here is the message I got this morning that started me looking for something different. I know nothing about any of it. We just need a way for people to pay dues once a year and buy a T-Shirt. We are a non-profit org. "I don't understand PayPal, I don't like PayPal and I don't have time to deal with PayPal. We need to figure something else out but I don't know what."” 12:21:42 PM 7/26/02 “c2it.com is out then.” 2:51:32 PM 7/26/02 “wasn't one of the reasons ebay bought pay pal because of the difficulties their customers were having using it? i thought i read that somewhere when they announced the acquisition. maybe things will change for the better soon.” 3:47:30 PM 7/26/02 “I used paypal once to buy a sleeping bag through e-bay. To big of hassle. After that purchase I deleted the account and never intend on using it again. If I can't call the company by phone and use the visa I will not bother with it.” 7:12:25 PM 7/26/02 “Actually ebay was sueing paypal (and so was just about everyone else including two states and the federal government)” 7:20:07 PM 7/26/02 “Thanks for trying everyone--I did a search and the other things I found were just too dang expensive.” 7:28:29 PM 7/26/02 “I've used Payapl about 10 times without issue. Maybe it's only a matter of time. Then again - I've never been on the receiving end of cash - maybe that's different. I thought it seemed like a slick service.” 6:04:00 AM 7/27/02 “I just like the escrow service because money doesn't actually change hands until they verify receipt of the merchandise and they verify the validity of the payment method. Protects everybody involved from being ripped off. I think it works best for ebay-type transactions, though.” 8:20:08 AM 7/27/02
