We need a few facts... Jan 6, 2005

Hi Kale,
Welcome to ProZ.com.

First of all, calm down a bit - panicking won't help you get your money after all...

Paypal availability is indeed restricted to certain countries. There are a few alternatives, though: use the forum search function (check on the left) to search for Moneybookers, Ikobo or Western Union, to name but a few.

Hi Kale,

It's not clear from your posting whether or not you have a (local) bank account - do you? If you don't, it's probably a good idea to get one. Running a business without a bank account can be difficult.

Finally, if you have accepted a job, what were the payment terms agreed upon?

And on a general note: it's a good idea to check the fees involved before agreeing on any form of payment.

HTH - best regards,
Ralf

Bank transfer Jan 6, 2005

Hi

Bank transfer! Why not? You have a bank account, you only have to provide your customer with the swift code number and the IBAN so that the transfer from another country can be succesfully completed.Your bank will give you this information. But as Ralf says,be careful with all the fees involved. You ought to talk to your bank before receiving payment.
Good luck!
Bernadette

go to WesternUnion Jan 7, 2005

I've experienced similar situation and get it resolved thru Western Union. Before you ask payer to send money via Westrn Union, make sure that one of your local banks has business connections with WU. So you can get your pay at that bank.

Devizna stedna knjizica Jan 7, 2005

Kale,

U osnovi je vrlo jednostavno. Otvoris deviznu stednu knjizicu npr. kod Zagrebacke unicredit banke i automatski imas broj deviznog racuna na koji mozes normalno primati doznake iz inostranstva. U banci ce ti po otvaranju knjizice dati uputstvo kako da primas doznake. IBAN ti ne treba jer u BiH jos nije zazivio. Ako je u pitanju manji iznos (do 150$) mozes slobodno primiti i cek. Ja ovako radim vec godinama i nikada nisam imao problema... o:)

Pozdrav,

N

devizni racun Jan 8, 2005

Devizni raèun i èekovi su trenutno najsigurniji naèin primanja novaca kad je Bosna u pitanju. Na naplatu èeka se èeka oko 20 dana a novac kao devizna doznaka stigne za 2 do 3 dana. U Zagrebaèkoj banci ti na ne naplaæuju proviziju ako doznaku ostaviš 7 dana. Sve ostalo je prilièno rizièno.

English, please... Jan 8, 2005

Folks,
I appreciate your assistance, but can we please keep postings in this forum in English? If you prefer to continue in Bosnian, I can move the thread to the Bosnian forum.

Would you like me to do that?

Thanks, Ralf
