Congrats.

A prepackaged bologna sandwich.  And it has to travel half-way around the world.  Yum!

yes, quite enticing :)

actually they gave me the choice of $40.00 or the prize items.  I was tempted to go with the prize items, but since I don't have a tv the remote isn't worth to much, and the other items, well... as fun as they would be.... I chose the $40.00

Have LO joined the 21st century yet and opened a Paypal account? A $40 cheque isn't too much use either.

Paypal would be a step backward for most people. If these sites could just do direct deposit then that would be a huge step forward.

Thats good for LO - a prize they dont have to pay out on.

Is anyone actually close to a payout at LO.  When . is there marketing gong to start (as promised) as the incentive to upload is getting smaller and smaller.  At the moment all it is good for is earning credits that I will never use.

At least Canstock makes absolutely no promises about its crap level of sales.

  Setting up a direct deposit system with banks from ever country that they have photags at would be a nightmare.  Paypal is the 21st century as as long as you have a verified account, I dont see any problems with it.

Wouldn't bother me in the least that they would have more work with direct deposit, just the nature of doing business. Paypal on the other hand doesn't have a good reputation and personally I'm very leery of them.

I think MoneyBookers is the next best thing, if not better. There are many countries that does not support PayPal. Monebookers has wider coverage.

BTW, congrats Leaf  :)

whats the limits on Moneybookers regarding transfers?

As I don't have a landline (internet through cable) so vertification of my Paypal account is rather tricky and i will eventually reach the £1,500 limit.

I think I would be happier being paid by paypal then giving out my bank details to all these different agencies.

Wouldn't there be a problem trying to transfer $100 to an non US$ account?
