Xoom It!

Oct 14 2008

Posted by Mitch as Earnings, Etcetera, Good Finds

It has been almost two months since my PayPal was hacked, phished, whatever you call it! Beginning that day, I depended on my online buddy Arlene to transact the funds that I earn through her PayPal and Xoom for me, as my PayPal remained unverified, due to the debit account that I chose not to link with it.

Today, I had my PayPal verified {in less than an hour, thanks to PayPal and Eon Customer Service Reps who have helped me solved it} but I will no longer specify and elaborate how I did it. I’m just glad that it happened teehee! Since I’ve already got my PayPal verified, I thought of giving it a try with Xoom again. With my fingers crossed, I withdrawn the funds from my PayPal through Xoom using the same email add {sender and recipient} and in less than 2 minutes, I received an email alert saying that my money is ready for pick up.

Here’s the proof of transaction:

From now on, I’d be withdrawing my funds through Xoom. No more transactions straight to my bank account. It’s more safer and as fast as moving services.

Hi Anant! You can do that to if you like, but it takes a lot of patience… and waiting.

Hi Feng! Ang bilis nga. Kaso mas mahal ang charge kesa pag withdraw mo sa EON pero mabilis, pag emergency at kelangan mo na talaga this is the best option.

[...] Because I am not feeling well, and been wanting to withdraw my earnings from the previous week plus the Watz Ur Ulam prize money, I decided to send it {through Xoom} on my brother’s name instead. But the transaction was canceled after few minutes. I had no choice but to send it to myself just like the first transaction I made last week. [...]
