Hello Ross,
What about PayPal, I am specifically interested in Paypal money transfers,
since it is free between paypal members, and Paypal is probably the most
popular between the RSPs. Another interesting thing is that I don't have a
credit card even though I have singned up and using paypal for accepting
payments from our web site.
