It's just a trick to get you to send me a SAE so I can send you the lovely glossy official CAFC photo I have of you with Motherwell's keeper and Dazzler.
Hi Everybody.
I've just realised that I do have a paypal account also so if anyone wanted to do that then let me know as thats very easy especially for overseas people. Thank you collegepark, just received yours via paypal.
Whisper me the bank details or paypal details (paypal by preference but whatever's easiest for you guys) and I'll pass it onto my financial advisor (the wife). It might have to wait until after payday if that's okay though (25th).
Our pledges wouldnt be reduced as they are paying me the exact sum of money i have asked for. whether it costs them more i dont know.
I have already received 50 quid from College Park. his overseas transfer was going to cost him a lot more i think.

Somebody told me it cost them £1.22 to donate £30 by paypal a while ago. So, presumably, only £28.78 was received.
It would be a shame for our pledges to be reduced in this way in my humble opinion anyway.
Yea I thought that. I sold something on ebay for a tenner and they took £1 the other day which is quite a high % I thought. I think it maybe doesn't take fees when it's just a money transfer though rather than paying for goods/service. I don't know for sure though.

For those overseas, paypal would seem the best option. When I send payment via a bank transfer, I get both a dodgy exchange rate and have to pay a transaction fee (sometimes as significant as the amount of money transferred). When I have to get a bank cheque drawn on pound sterling, I get an even worse exchange rate and pay another significant transaction fee. If I send a check drawn on local currency, as HI experienced last year, the receiving bank may take forever to process it and sending the correct amount is difficult. Paypal has an unfavorable exchange rate -- but still better than what the bank or currency exchange center offers -- but does not charge transaction fees to the sender (nor, apparently, to the recipient; in other words, their profit on it is derived from the exchange rate provided).
The upshot, on my end, is that if paypal works on the recipient's end I have more money to contribute to the sponsorship fund because of what no longer needs to go into a myriad of middlemen's pockets. Should there be an additional fee charged on Curb-It's end for the transfer, please let me know and I will make up the difference.
Paypal don't take a cut for all transactions. Transfers between Paypal accounts do not cost you anything. It all depends on which box you tick when they ask you what its for
Although I'm in Oz I still have a UK bank a/c so can you whisper me the details please Curb_It?
A question: in the unlikely event I win I probably wouldn't fly over for the dinner! In which case, is it legit for me to "sell" the place to a fellow lifer, take my GBP20 investment out, and then put the rest into sponsorship for next year (this wouldn't be "my" money as such, so not with my name on it, if you see what I mean)to help raise the most money possible for the club?
Or a gnome would be lovely. Ta.
This is a great initiative so thanks to those putting the time and effort in to organise things.
I agree with the lifer that said our second shirt should be a "yoof": someone half Dailly's age perhaps?
Tsk Shagger ! but thanks anyway for generous contribution. How would you prefer to pay.
Killara - i think most overseas opted out of the meal but if anyone who got picked couldnt make the meal.. .they offered it to another lifer and that lifer had to make a contribution to Demelza House - this site's favourite charity so they got a few pennies out of it.

I've sent you another £20.00 (making £40.00 in total)
It's a contribution from my Poker winnings last night.
Cheers

Great going but you'll never reach £1750. No way, no chance, locked on FACT
Well done Alex thanks.
I am still waiting for Christopher Dan (half your name might be missing) to own up so i can tick you off paying. please whisper me.
People when paying please realise it might not take all the reference and only half your name is coming out.
thanks.
Whisper me the details and I'll pay as soon as I get it.
Yes

So that's 3 items you've sold on ebay then!!!
