considering INSTADEBIT--any problems?

[EXTRAPOLATER]

Apparently only for Canadian consumers, though these off-shores will accept such monetary transfers. I've been using credit cards but these books now want a blood sample before you can withdraw funds (happy enough to take your money but you gotta jump through hoops to get it out).

Anyways, I've just read the INSTADEBIT "user agreement" and it kind of scared the shit out of me. Not sure if I'm overreacting or what.

Would like to hear of people's experience with this method. Curious about a number of things.

For starters, do you have to fund the instadebit account and then use those funds OR can you skip that B.S. and just have the funds debited from your chequing account?

Any problem receiving funds back through INSTADEBIT?

Could use some feedback, good or bad.

I have used InstaDebit......but best is:

They are a Canadian company and I have used them for over a year with no problems. The "e-mail money transfer" option is sweet:SIB


Only downside is that sometimes the "e-mail money transfer option" is down, and that does suck. But that is my only complaint.



Also......I do like the old school Western Union option:SIB

hmmm...both my current books accept instadebit but not this ewallet stuff.

This instashiite sounds okay but I'm wondering if there's a caveat I can't spot.
My head was spinning reading their user agreement, available here:

Likely no one else wants to suffer through that, unless they're considering it.

Got a Western Union right around the corner from me, but they always hassle me on withdrawels due to my lack of a driver's license. One of my books giving me a hassle about that now, not wanting to accept a Health card or anything else as I.D. Could get a passport, but that would be $87; don't plan on travelling at the moment so seems silly to score it to satisfy the book.

 

[Mr.]

just curious, which books are you trying to fund extra?

I use instadebit to fund my Pinnacle & Greek account. NEVER had a problem. They say 3-5 business days for a withdrawl, but every time I've done one it's taken no more than 2 business days to get to my chequing account. Very easy to sign up and you can make your first deposit and be gambling in 10 minutes!! I recommend it.

Same as Canada Man, I'm using the freak and Pinnacle. Recently got an okay on my Health Card as ID so my credit card should be okay.

I'd actually prefer PayPal, as I feel a little safer with them, but I might try Instadebit. Not sure yet. Western Union is probably the best way to go but the tools working at the one near me always hassle me about ID...really my main problem.

I should just fork over the $87 for a passport, already...want to hit the Netherlands sometime before 2011 anywho.

Just curious if anyone's been spanked by instadebit. It should be okay but I've never used them.

Sure as hell would like a withdrawel by the end of June, I tell you that much. NHL playoffs really saved me from a deposit but I'd like to get out my spring cash, at least.

Just wondering if giving this instadebit place my account info is okay. By the (few) responses it sounds like they might be legit. Not sure what they're withdrawel procedures would be like, though...i.e., if I haven't used them for a deposit can I still get money out via them.

Hendrix bless the coming of June.
