Help, Paypal/3v

    Hi,

    I am having a nightmare, to say the least. I have €500 tied up with Paypal/3V

    To make a very long story shorter, does anyone know of a way i can send money to a bank account from my 3V card WITHOUT using paypal. I need it by 6am as i am going abroad.

    Paypal has limited my account, and i can't send/transfer any money, but the credit card is also tied to that paypal account. They have been the most UNhelpful pieces of s**t i have ever had the misfortune of dealing with, and it has been going on for over a week, i am now out of time, and i can't get my money. Western union transfer is not an option, it's too expensive.
    Does anybody know of another way? Like iKobo, but one that works in Ireland.

    Thanks in advance.

    Edit. Just found moneybookers. Are these guys trustworthy?

    Thanks, i went ahead with moneybookers. Worked perfectly.

    Both 3V and Paypal were useless. I was on the phone to them for over a week.

    It really has nothing to do with Paypal, unless the money was already in your Paypal account, somehow. Second, it's a very simple process to request the money on the 3V card be returned to your bank account. There is a fee, but that's it. Why were you looking for all the hard ways to do something very simple?

    I wasn't looking for all the hard ways.. Also, if there had been an easier way, surely someone from 3V/Paypal would have pointed it out?

    €200 of my money is frozen in paypal and nobody can tell me why, they say it will be fixed soon. No need for me to go into all the details, but i am 100% behind paypalsucks dot com after all that garbage. It's still frozen for no apparent reason.

    As for 3V the €300 euro was a refunded item that was never paid for, (i.e. i placed an order to buy something, the order started to go through, then they emailed me, out of stock, and refunded/never accepted money)
    3V told me to get a fax/email from the company to move it quicker, they got that, and the money is unspent under 14 day on card, they wouldn't refund, so i went to moneybookers. Sorted. Free (No fee) and easy.
