International money transfer/receive?

Hi all, i am doing freelance for a US client as an animator, and i am having problem in receiving money from them, so is there any safer and quick way to receive money in Indian banks.



FOI: I have bank account with Corporation bank and SBI

Also i have checked the PAYPAL but they don't transfer money to Indian banks, i can only use it for online transactions. Also learned abt the Indian postal service's money transfer but they don't have much info on their site related to fee and all, please help me out.International money transfer/receive?
Similar question in YIA.



Q: I am a citizen and resident of New Delhi, India. I want to work for a U. S. based company on the internet. That company would pay me in U. S. Dollars(U. S. D.)($) via International Wire Transfer. How can I receive money using International Wire Transfer? I am having a savings account in a government bank in New Delhi, India.



A: It is simple, faster and cheap. Just tell Your US counterpart your SB A/c No., name exactly as it appears at the said bank a/c and your bank/branch swift code. The swift code of your branch can be had from the concerned Officer / Manager of the branch where you have the account. Rest the banking system would take care itself of receiving money and crediting your account of all the proceeds from the US party.

Hey,

Umm...are you going out with this lady or is it just a friend?

For a friend:

#1: Flowers, candy, cute little things (teddy bears, things she likes and always talks about)

#2: Her interests (if she is interested in antique jewlery get her that, or if she likes music get her a CD, anything like that)



For a girlfriend:

#1: Jewlery (something sentimentle with hearts and stuff, but like if ya'll have been going out for a while)

#2: Flowers, and Candy (if ya'll have just started going out)

#3: CD's and things she mentioned she likes (shows that you listen to her, doesn't matter how long ya'll have been going out)

#4: Anything cute and meanful (a I Love You teddy bear, anything that will make her laugh and smile)

No note was left yesterday saying if it would be redelivered or if I would have to pick it up. Do you have any idea?When will my package arrive?
It looks like the courier tried to deliver on the 23rd but you were out. He should have left a card for you saying so and it should have been delivered by now anyhow. You need to get the phone number of the UK depot and make an enquiry.

  • Does USPS actually UPDATE tracking information?

    I ordered something from the UK on the 24th. It was posted on the 29th through Royal Mail. However, the tracking information provided by USPS seems to be slow, where Royal Mail's info says:



    Your item, posted on 29/12/10 with reference (tracking number) has been passed to the overseas postal service for delivery in UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.



    and USPS's tracking info says:

    Class: First-Class Mail International

    Service(s): International Letter

    Status: Origin Post is Preparing Shipment

    We have received notice that the originating post is preparing to dispatch this mail piece.



    What's up with that...HeadKandy Extensions is the company, they estimate an order to arrive within 3-5 business days and it's already January 7th.



    Is USPS slow with tracking info? So could my package arrive without it saying so on the website?Does USPS actually UPDATE tracking information?
    First Class Mail International does not offer tracking so, you will not see anything about the status of the package online at usps.com.Does USPS actually UPDATE tracking information?
    First Class mail is not trackable. That's why the status hasn't updated.

    Where on earth is my mail?!?

    i ordered some headkandy hair extensions this weekend and they are being shipped via royal mail from the UK. royal mail and usps have two totally different things to say about where my package is.



    royal mail says:

    Status: Overseas

    Your item, posted on 29/11/10 with reference "" has been passed to the overseas postal service for delivery in UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.



    while usps (AND their live reps) says:

    Class: First-Class Mail International

    Service(s): International Letter

    Status: Origin Post is Preparing Shipment



    We have received notice that the originating post is preparing to dispatch this mail piece.



    what on earth is going on here???? i am awaiting a reply from Headkandy for more info but why does one say that it is overseas already while the other says it has not even been dispatched yet? on top of that it says it is an international LETTER?!? any help?Where on earth is my mail?!?
    Hi there!



    You should have received a reply for the HK team now :)



    The services usually say International Letter on USPS and that's nothing to worry about :) The fact that there's a difference between the 2 postal services at the moment might suggest that although the item has been posted on by Royal Mail it may be in transit to the US and USPS may not have scanned it into their systems yet. Nothing to worry about with that either :) Sometimes the systems can be a little slow to update.



    I hope this has helped

    鈾モ櫏Where on earth is my mail?!?
    Hi! I'm having the same exact problem. Frustrating since I ordered them for a trip. How long did it finally take you to receive them? thank you so much!

    Mailing from UK to US?

    I have an item sent with their Airsure service coming to me. My question is how long will this take. The Royal mail says when I track it: "has been passed to the overseas postal service for delivery in UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. "



    Figuring it was here in the US, I went to usps.com to track it and its saying:



    Class: First-Class Mail International

    Service(s): International Letter

    Status: Origin Post is Preparing Shipment



    We have received notice that the originating post is preparing to dispatch this mail piece.



    Can someone help me with whats going on? And how long itll take?



    THANKS=]Mailing from UK to US?
    It may be clearing customs. Once cleared it should reach the address in 2 to 3 business days. Next Monday July 5th is a holiday in the US. So Tuesday is likely the earliest it will reach the address.

    Outbound item (Laptop) held in US Customs!!?

    I ordered a Laptop from an online shop from USA which was being delivered through USPS. They picked it up on March 17, 2010 and since March 18, 2010 the tracking showed "Sent to U.S. Customs by U.S. Postal Service". Now today (March 28, 2010) a new update was added "Held in US Customs". So my question is:



    1- Why an outbound item is being held in custom. (I know for sure that there is nothing illegal about this item as I bought it from one of the most reputable online shops).



    2- How long will it remain there?



    3- Is there some process to get it released? Or is there anything that can be done to expedite the process? Can the store who has sent me the item help in this regard?



    I am really worried as this is the first time I am buying something online from USA. Any sort of help will be appreciated.



    Here are the details of tracking.

    Label/Receipt Number: ECXXXXXXXXXXXX

    Service(s): Insured

    Status: Held in US Customs

    ------------------Outbound item (Laptop) held in US Customs!!?
    It depends on where you are. It is illegal to export electronics to some countries, so if you are in Iran for example, you will be waiting a long time. If you are in Canada, it should be days. The USPS service was probably the wrong way though. Fedex for example would be much faster and would pass customs more quickly, though you will still pay the same duty if applicable.Outbound item (Laptop) held in US Customs!!?
    I purchase clothes from China all the time, and every time they are shipped here to the U.S. it always says it's being held by customs. This usually lasts for a few days, then it's released.
