How do I get a Swedish bank account?  :D

Certainly alarm bells would have rang out with that one, any legit business would have declined unless could prove identity.
Always had good service from Ketan.

Paypal are a law to themselves, its convenient for both parties if all goes well.
From sellers point of view Paypal can retrieve the money paid weeks after a dispute, so seller could loose out after sending goods.

Probably list on one hand the countries I haven't sold to, no trouble with Thailand, even shipped to Denso and several personal addresses there, good postal service. Try getting stuff back from Russia.

Other forms of payment are available, no effort and usually cheaper than paypal, even the US caught on a few years ago no problem with NZ 10 yr ago. In fact just done one Friday again to Germany one shop £5700 by IBAN, cost me £10 for the business bank transaction fee dead easy. Paypal took £85 fees for buying £1865 ish the other month to a foreign land. Proof of identity was required for the goods not for the payment.
Any business has the right to refuse sale but should look at other methods.

I guess you have to become paranoid like me to get a Swedish bank account in the U.K.. :).....In fact, my bankers: Svenska Handelsbanken are just as paranoid as I am...if not more. In the U.K., it is a lot tougher to get an account with them then it is with any U.K. high street bank. Their interrogation process is the good old fashion way, with help and advice from a mature generation of 'real' bankers....and not 'commission salesmen' who call themselves bank managers in our general high street banks. The bank managers at Handelsbanken in the U.K. do not work on commission and the local branch bank manager has the power to make real lending decisions, unlike some faceless young wet behind the ears twat working in some call center in the U.K. head offices of U.K. bank who feeds garbage into his computer and then tell the commission salesman what the computer says...YES or NO. I moved to them about four years ago. On several occasions, they helped me avoid getting into financial holes, which at the time I considered to be pessimistic opinion - not what I wanted to hear, to the extent of what I considered to be paranoia on their part, on certain projects I was working on.  :Doh:...the U.K. high street banks would have said YES SIR to me, in the same situation :palm:...

Well I empathize with Allen, I’m an ex-pat from England and live in the US and all my banking is US and I have a hell of a time with finance back and forth the pond, I know the feeling that you have the cash and are legitimate but because of common trash thieves you’re getting nowt , I also blame the banking system, they just can’t or won’t get their act together, in fact I believe the Americans are the worst at it, the banks  say it’s to protect us but really it’s for them and we pay the price by being inconvenienced and are forced to swallow there bad service, now and again we even have to bail erm out too…..

I understand the vendor as well why should he get shafted, there is no out for them either; their force fed the (Bent) broken credit system to which if they refuse the services their out of business.

Ketan…On the customer service issue, since now you know this feller is genuine how about taking his order let the money clear in then send him his stuff…… That would be first class service in my book,

Anthony.
