Given a choice which payment processor would you prefer? Paypal or Alertpay? For me it is Papal all the way coz they are very professional and more trustworthy. Alertpay is yet to get smooth, right now i'm not able to use the funds in my alertpay account due to some problem in the transaction password. It just stopped working one day. And the customer support is also weak and unprofessional. Its almost a week since I've been waiting for a reply from alertpay regarding my transaction password. On the other hand i always had a great experience with Paypal, especially their dispute settlement system. Further I could withdraw my paypal balance to a bank in india which makes it even more attractive. So please tell how would you compare paypal and alertpay pls share your experience.

I am from the old school;you have to prove yourself to me first.And Paypal has.I have used PayPal now since i started on the intrnet and have found no major reason to try a different one.I guess i am loyal to PayPal.It seems though that most complaints I do hear about PayPal come from India and China as I guess PayPal is still working out the bugs in their programs from those 2 countries.I have not heard any complaints so far about Alertpay,so I guess people are pleased with it.

i totally agree with you on paypal, but not quite so about alertpay, i think as this discussion unfolds you will start seeing few people complaining about alertpay. Atleast that has been my experience!

I think that I would rather using paypal. The alertpay is too complicated. You have to go through all of these steps just to register. See I like paypal and I also like using money exchange revolution, I have the referal link on my profile, for anyone who is interested.

I own an account on both. I agree that Paypal is professional and smooth. With it's launch AlertPay's features are not user friendly such as one dollar fee charge on every transaction :0 and in other one they were asking to verification proof/s to their US office. Although now they have replaced both of these options with better ones i.e.., no transaction fee and now we can upload verification related proofs online. But Paypal will remain a better choice for me. Security and Money matters here so we should choose a reliable service provider.
Paypal rules here.
Comments appreciated.
enjoy :)

I have not even heard of alertpay, I know there is a site called revolutionarymoneyexchange (RME)and I only tried them because they handed you $25 just for signing up! although I go with what I know, paypal, I have been using them for a long time and I trust them! although 1 bad thing about pp is the fees!
