Around 2 weeks ago when i checked microworkers had paypal as cashout option. Today i see only AlertPay and Moneybookers. Have they removed paypal?

I noticed the same thing... I hope someone has an answer. I have another ?. Maybe you can help me. I have followed the FAQ instructions to get a referral but nowhere can I find my link or any banners or anything? what am I missing? I would like to place a referral link for them in my blog but I can't find any of this information.

I was able to put a referral link on my profile. I think it was there before on the account page. Many things have changed after they re-did their sites. Even i was not able to find a referral link now.

Hi kripa_db! Yup it has been missing for a while, around a month ago I requested a payment and at that time it was saying Paypal would be up soon. I requested a second payment two weeks after that and Paypal was still not up. Just last week Paypal option totally disappeared and I had to open an Alertpay account to cashout my earnings. I don't think it will be coming back.

I do not prefer AlertPay because it does not allow direct transfer of money into my account. Even the jobs have become less now

As soon as I saw this discussion, I checked out the site. To my horror I saw that the option of paypal is indeed missing. Where has it gone? There is an option of weekly payment in alertpay - this is what the site says. Its not happening. They should have given a mail and informed everyone before hand. If they are going to trash PP for good, then first MW should fund whatever the amount to those users who had recommended PP as the money transfer. And what is that ACH type of withdrawal? The low number of available jobs makes me think that MW is turning scam. What's the truth after all?

I just found out today that they removed the Paypal option. Unfortunately, I was forced to open an Alertpay account to get my first and last payment from Microworkers. I don't think I will be working for them anymore.
