[Foundation-l] Alternative to paypal

[Debbie Garside]

I agree, one or two days is not too bad for a "free" service but is it 10 or
20 days? My question was really aimed at making people look at the small
print.

Hi Gerard

But do they delay in transferring the monies and if so for how many days?
If there is a delay then the service is not free as they gain interest on
the monies held; this is a classic way for financial collection systems to 
make money.


So? Seriously, Google--just like any other company operated for profit--is
not a charity. If there are no explicit transaction costs, a one or two day
float doesn't sound too bad actually.
