    Yeah I use xoom, demand-draft is delivered in 2 days. I strongly advise against cash pickup, atleast in Mumbai because the xoom confirmation emails do not mention which pickup center your money is to be collected from & there are about 50 of them, you may end up visiting each of them :(

    xoom is quick but remember u have 12 transactions annually so use it properly , its good for sure rather then waiting 17 days with a paypal cheque.

    I used Xoom to transfer my paypal money to my bank account. It takes only like 12 hours to reach the money. Even their rate is less then WU rates. :)

    That will probably be rejected by xoom but you can give it a shot.

    I am not sure if they reject all payments made by unverified paypal addresses. Give it a try. It's advisable that you use a verified paypal.

    nope, to transfer money from paypal to bank using xoom you need to have a verified paypal. And also the name should be the same as in paypal to transfer money from paypal. That means some other paypal cant transfer money using some other xoom account.

    Best regards

    I wish I could lol :(, but I am still a student and don't have a credit card yet, though I am trying to get one soon...So I can't transfer the PP money to my Bank Account, but can I request a Demand Draft (from unvarified PP) using Xoom?

    Thanks for the reply anyway:)

    You dont need to use Credit card all the time to verify your paypal, you can use your bank account to verify your account. Go to your paypal account and check the account verification process help for more informations.

    Nope, Xoom doesn't support DD. :(
