As the title suggests SendNOW has gone a bit wonky.
No problem sending money yesterday - GBP and Apple Pay.
Today only restricted currencies, and bank transfer only, which a massive PIA. No card or other method.
They have said they are working to resolve this, but not sure how long this will go on for.
So anyone intending to use it probably best wait until it is back to normal service.
An update.
Looks like they have some kind of temporary fix going. All currencies are back, but the process has to be carried out manually by you. They provide instructions, but it doesn’t quite tally up with what you see on screen.
To be honest I don’t feel confident using it.
Anyway, I hope this is a temporary work around, and normal service will resume at some point.
Thats not a news… it’s been a while.
A lot of services like this stopped working or not working properly.
Use Payinrussia guys, much easier and works every time (for now).
SendNOW only started playing up last week.
However got a work around with it and now can use it quite easily. Thank heavens for Revolut !
Hi, I am trying to transfer around 550 euros from my French bank account to my Russian one, and I find no solution for now.( Even after having spent quite some time reading similar forums). Any help more than welcome; regards.
SendNOW does work, but it’s not as straight forward as it was a week ago.
@frenchris you can use Payinrussia for this, up to 15.000 rub you don’t need identification… for example i use it for small payments cause my girlfriend lives there. You can also top up your balance up to 600.000 rub but you have to identificate… anyway you have a ‘‘bank account’’ with all your card details that you can use for online purchases or physical, booking a flight, stay or a museum.
Been using their new system with Revolut quite successfully…until today.
I want to send a larger amount of money to my wife to covr my upcoming trip this Thursday.
Revolut flagged it as suspicious activity and blocked the transfer.
I cancelled it and went to return the money from Revolut to me bank account, and that has been blocked and listed as suspicious activity.
WTF, it’s my money and I’m returning it to the account I sent it from !
This whole set up is now beyond a joke !
Update to this.
Sendnow working just fine now, as those of you using it have probably noticed. They keep swithing the payment methods around, some with extortionate fees !
However Revolut now seems to be behaving itself, and the fee is nice and low.
How much is the exchange rate? looking for alternatives to crypto that dont cost an arm and a leg
@Jerz Arm and a leg, taking around 22 percent off you against market rats plus a fee on top. Avoid.
@phoebe what about sending money via some central asian or caucasian countries via golden crown or other similar services? How practical is this?
@admin do you know anything about this, could be better than crypto these days as dealing with cashpoints is annoying
