Just heard about a new money transfer service that works like Xoom.  Has anybody tried this yet? It's called Remitly.

 
I read about, this money transfer method, also.  You do need a credit card or a bank routing number.  My only concern with this method is that it leaves a paper trail.  I'm thinking maybe you could buy a pre-paid credit card to be more anonymous?  Not sure that would work with this method.  I don't know many that have tried this option, yet.

Well I decided to give it a go this morning.  @BellaDonna I share the same concerns as you but there is no fool proof way, other than cim, to not leave a paper trail.  If you use any of the other services to send you have to provide legit info in order to get a refund so I feel ok doing this.  If they want to know anything bad enough, they can figure it out.   I am just banking on the fact that there are bigger fish to fry.    I will post when all is said and done :)  

 
Well I had a minor hiccup with my transfer yesterday but was able to resolve the issue fairly quickly and pain free.  I had to change receivers as the one given had reached his limit and it was easy peasy.  I was able to do it through the chatbox on the website and it took about 7 minutes.  Its much better than being on the phone (stoned) and having some lady you can barely understand chirping in you ear.....Its also much better than chatting with a dismissive asshole that doesnt believe a word you say and shuts you down right off the bat!!!  I am going to use it until I am told not too.  I still am to fearful of doing cim with sy vendors. I did it with G and never had a problem but for some reason sy scares me. :(  

 
Thanks @Toboso I was going to start a thread for this and of course our awesome members are ahead of me and already discussing it. I'm very interested in trying it.

 
@2earls    I was surprised at how easy it was to use.  I also got a 40$ gift card to amazon!!!  Switching receivers was a lot less nerve racking using the chatbox, than doing it over the phone. I wish more vendors would offer it.   The initial process took about 5 minutes to complete, including registration. 

 
Well Remitly is officially over for me.   I tried sending again today and they wanted a photocopy of my receivers Id.   I told the guy on the phone that wasnt going to happen and to go ahead and cancel the transaction.  I also told him that I would be cancelling my account and using other methods.  He did not seem to care....Oh well I thought it was going to be a nice alternative but alas, it is not meant to be. Assholes.   I have yet to try Mg again after my last fiasco so I guess I will be using Wu from here on out......

 
@2earls   Yeah it totally sucks.  I am considering calling and seeing if I can get them to waive the whole Id thing.  I am not sure of my strategy yet but after my last couple of fiascoes with Wu and Mg, I have gained a little bit of confidence on the phone.    I am not sure it it will do any good but it may be worth a shot.   I am still contemplating though.

I had WU do that to me, so I cancelled the order, and switched to MG.  I guess they all must do that sometimes as some sort of QC check.   It sucks,  and is stupid.   Why would you have a copy of someone else's I'D?  I figure their loss..

 
I tried this recently and it flopped.  They canceled my trans after a two hour wait.  The source sent me another receiver but I just took my cash with me to MG the next day instead.  Haven't tried it again and not sure if I will

 
sorry to revive such an old thread but couldn't find this mentioned anywhere else on here.  

has anyone tried using this recently?  

 
Sure have, Let's just say that they had to call me 2x in a month and wanted more detail because they have notice "pattern"s that concerned them. ( 4 - 3 digit donations ) in 2 months. I let it be and closed up shop with them. Others do just fine I am sure.

There are absolutely nothing worse than wu and mg... basically all financial entities working out of the US are years behind in technology and you have to pay through your nose. Its worthwhile to take a day off and lo9´ok around. I´d use cryptocurrencies everyday before them. Create a wallet and use it once and be off.

 
Is there a verification process with Remitly (like xoom and sharemoney) where they call you and ask you what the money is for, who the receiver is, etc.? That's what made me stay away from those services. Is Remitly person-free until you get red-flagged for spending too much, or to a flagged receiver?

First time you use it they call and just ask questions about who you are. After that you’re good for about 5 times. Then they want documents.

I think it depends on where you are sending payment.  I tried using Remitly twice and both times I got flagged and denied making my payment.

  2. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  3. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  4. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  5. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  6. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  8. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  9. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  10. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  11. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
  12. R @ Royboy99: Maybe it’s the admixture of my South American dna that works so well with it ? 🤷
  13. R @ Royboy99: It’s all evident in memory recall, my emails, meetings, … people invest everything they have in a nootropic that provides this… desperately searching without success and it’s right there right under their nose (no pun) … stigmatized by society and outlawed.
  14. R @ Royboy99: Now I’m not foolish or delusional to think that it made Edison who he was … it just allowed him to Edison to Edison to a greater degree … and I see it doing that for me and others who use it as a productive tool and not a substance of abuse.. you can look at this data with the level of patents filed by Edison during that time … comparable to Barry bonds or McGuire breaking records while they were subtly enhanced
  15. R @ Royboy99: One could argue that we would not have motion pictures if it wasn’t for ❄️
  16. R @ Royboy99: I also take month long breaks and replace with Ritalin for receptor recovery
  17. R @ Royboy99: And while it may sound insane and completely destructive … small microdoses of ❄️ has really transformed me. I did extensive research on its use by Edison, the pope at the time, and many others who got great benefit from a wine concoction called vin Mariani … this subtle enhancement changed the world and as long its used with a high degree of control, it’s amazing. you may think I’m crazy … but I’m just being as transparent as I can
  18. R @ Royboy99: I’ve grown to realize that my time is finite and Im only getting older… I’m back to relying on small PRN doses of FDA trialed BZDs and it’s made tremendous improvements to my quality of life. I just need to get out there more and meet someone new, it’s the only piece that’s missing since I’ve managed to get it together
  19. R @ Royboy99: @LatsDoodis: thanks brother … I’ve spent months trying to put myself in uncomfortable places to grow stronger. Hours of research, thousands on supplements, therapy etc …
  20. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: @Royboy99 You’re not yet lost. Cut them losses and do what you don’t want to do. Take the boring, shameful, nerve racking way out. It’s the only road back to balance. When you’re ready, you’ll do it. Hit me up if you want support quitting. This ain’t worth your life!
