Will try to make it a quarterly transaction.

@ Rush, from the info on the Paypal site, it is transferring it's UK operation to the Luxemberg Bank - With the problems I've been seeing on Paypal about freezing A/C's & emptying bank accounts - No thank you.

As far as I know, that was done six months ago, but I haven't followed up with it.

Like I said, I use both regularly. I'm sure they make mistakes just like all banks do.

Cordially,
Rush

Maybe, but I have to keep a tight rein on my accounts. The tax man doesn't care about your problems, they just want their money.

From what I have seen, Paypal only return funds (if there was a problem) after 180 days.

With a disabled wife & a business to run, I cannot afford to have funds tied up for 6 months.

I donated via credit card without any problems so far. On the other hand, a regular donation directly from my bank account sounds interesting.
If you could PM me the "HOW TO" e.g. the S@H account, I`d try it out from my Austrian bank.( Mark ?, PAPPA ? )

Regards
Kurt

If you look at the Donation Page here is the form for
Direct Deposit From your bank.

This can be used for a one time gift or a reoccuring gift monthly etc.

You do need to make sure that you write Seti@home in the opening line for who receives it.

@ Fuzzy.

Just found out that our Post Offices here no longer do IMO's. Blurf has provided details for me so when I receive the required info from the Grants Admin, I will be making a donation through Western Union.

Also, if business increases as it has the past several months, will increase donations & hopefully, make it a quarterly one.

Regards
