    Is Paxum a Scam?

    Hey guys,

    I setup a Paxum account to move my Epoch payments.

    I got paid by Epoch on the 19th and I STILL haven't received my wire transfer for nearly $5,000. Is it just a scam? I got caught out by Globill back in the day so I wouldn't be surprised.

    I have bank accounts around the world and a wire transfer is really easy and takes less than 24 hours - who are these monkeys?

        They refunded me the transfer fee because I'm told they screwed up a wire transfer but still no money........

        Just seems dodgy that a company that does this can't manage a simple wire transfer.

                Response from Ruth:

                "I'm terribly sorry. Accounting replied to inform me that the wire was never confirmed by the bank."

                They are a finance company and they can't get a wire transfer figured out?

                12 days I have been waiting to get my money - just want you guys to be aware.

                            I've had the occasional wire transfer problem with Paxum (and with Payoneer as well). Yes, it's a pain in the ass, but sometimes shit just happens. Paxum (and Payoneer) have always been good in helping me straighten things out.

                            Paxum is solid, and I highly recommend them.

                                I request wires in the € thousands monthly through them without a hickup.

                                    Wires, can be done in 24hrs, but NOT all the time, it all depends on the banks involved, it usually takes longer. Specially overseas transfers. I have never had a problem with Paxum

                                        I had Epoch wire the payments to me. Not sure why you would use a middle man. No pun intended.

                                        For everything else, I just use my Paxum card to pull out $5k in cash and buy some coke and hookers.

                                              I have 1,000 missing from them as well, I sent it to fund my account on the 17th, 2 days later I was informed that they had changed banks. It seems my transfer was lost in the shuffle.

                                              That doesn't make Paxum a scam, it just means they had an issue with their bank. I would have expected the Bank to either return the wire or fund my account after 2 weeks but nothing.

                                              I guess I'm just happy it was a relatively small wire.

                                              Payoneer had the same issue on the same day but were able to credit my funding wire with no issues.
                                              - As soon as I think up a good sig it's going here.

                                                Every business has its own problem. But that doesn't mean they are scammers.

                                                  like anything else involving banking, Paxum is a little bit of a pain in the beginning. But once it is set up correctly, they are solid and Ruth is always on the ball as far as I am concerned. We have put well over 7 figures through paxum in the last couple years and have not had any issues.

                                                        For everything else, I just use my Paxum card to pull out $5k in cash and buy some coke and hookers.
                                                        Yeah I dont get it as well. Obviously there is some reason people use Paxum. But why deal with Paxum when you can get money wired directly to checking acct?

                                                          Ruth is great, she spotted me a few bucks once on my Paxum account just to be nice, cause I needed to complete an affiliate payout. It was only a few bucks, (4) but I can't think of any other payment company that will spot you like that, even pennies.

                                                          I never noticed the "shitty attitude", not in emails, IM or in person. But even if I had, I would take the shitty attitude along with her ability to take care of problems any day. There's no shortage of reps who are nice as hell and can't or won't do shit for you.

                                                          I would still like to get my missing wire taken care of, but I believe it's not really a Paxum fault, it's an intermediary bank problem.

                                                          Still, I lost 1,000 following their written directions and I do expect it to be resolved.

                                                                                I believe I spoke with your accountant already and the wire has been deposited. Please check with your accountant to confirm and let me know if you still need assistance.

                                                                                              I don't know if it is her personally, as much as she gets equally frustrated.

                                                                                              From what I understand, Paxum is not setup like a real financial services company should be. Then again, I would not expect a guy who made his living selling penis pills to know how to properly set one up. I inherently do not trust a guy who made his money buy ripping desperate guys off with bogus claims.

                                                                                              AFAIK, she is in Mexico. Paxum is in Canada. Their support is somewhere else. Not that uncommon, except: even as their top rep, she's not allowed access to the information that would allow her to do her job properly. Nor is she allowed to exercise proper judgement and get shit done by hitting buttons herself.

                                                                                              I've given her shit out of frustration, but its not really her fault, IMHO. Paxum runs well enough when things are fine, but you start to see the stresses in their company when something goes wrong. In other words, Paxum has been lucky.

                                                                                              FWIW, Epassporte used to hide a lot of information from their main rep, too. Companies have to be able to trust a key person to be able to exercise proper judgement and get something done. Neither Epassporte or Paxum seemed (and seem) to be good at doing that.
