Well I finally got verified with AlertPay. It took a little while but I have to say their customer support was exceptionally polite and professional. They have a level of courtesy at AlertPay that seems missing with PayPal's support staff.

Does anyone have the AlertPay debit card yet? I pre-registered and am hoping to get it soon.

mw63, from what you've explained about AlertPay, it seems like a courteous technical support and customer service team there. Does AlertPay charge fees for their services to members?

Like PayPal they have different fees based on different membership types. For someone who would be sending/receiving less than $400 per month or $2,000 over lifetime there's no fees... if someone goes over that much then they need to switch to either a Business or Personal Pro account which I believe is free to send money, and 2.5% to receive money

I have accounts with paypal. alertpay and serve - serve actually had a promo for $5 then a game available for members for another $5.  Paypal, especially with account debit card - reigns supreme!

Alert pay has run into some problems with the U. S. A. They can not currently deposit money into or take money out of a US bank account. For the time being Alert pay is dead for Americans.
I was lying in bed the other night, looking up at the stars, and thinking, "Where in the heck is my roof?"

I prefer Alertpay over paypal. I like the design layout for that. My only con about that site is it is not fdic insured and it is in Canada. Seeing how Paypal receives massive complaints everyday, I'll take alertpay anyday.

I have never heard of AlertPay, but PayPal is FANTASTIC and FusionCash pays my "Cash-outs" pretty regularly.

Just like the comment below mine....  I use Paypal because I have had to for various things.  Never heard of the other one.  Not too fond of the idea of the accounts period, but eBay and here pretty much need me too.  No matter how much I trust Fusion Cash, it's nothing personal, but I don't give my bank account number out ever.

I'll continue to use  Paypal because it's more widely accepted and it's easier to receive payment from survey sites

 :thumbsup: My thoughts exactly.  I've used PayPal for about six years now and just started using AlertPay because there was one site that won't accept PayPal.  Alertpay was kind of a hassle, major inconvenience for me compared to how easy/convenient PayPal is.  I kind of hate having to use AlertPay...

I've had my paypal account for a number of years now, never really used it. So I'm looking forward to collecting some cash pretty soon. But I never heard of AlertPay.

I have never heard of AlertPay.  I have always used Paypal. Is there a bug difference?  Unless Alertpay has better features than Paypal, I probably wouldn't consider changing.  Paypal has been good to me so far.  :)
