Is Alertpay a Scam or Not ?


Alertpay is a Scam or Not is the biggest questions asked by the people in forums and every where on internet. Alertpay which is the biggest online payment processing option for third world countries specially like Pakistan and Bangladesh where PayPal is not available. one of the biggest advantage of using Alertpay is that it accepts almost each and every country and this gives you the power to interact with customers and receive payments from them. But last year when Alertpay disabled credit card payments due to some banking issues no one can thought that after one year this payment processor will reach to become another scam on internet.

Situation Critical:

Last year on April 13, 2011 Alertpay disabled Credit card withdraws and verification system via Code due to some banking issues. At that time people thought that this is a temporary problem and soon will become enabled but on June 3, 2011 they also disabled Check withdraws for all countries which surprise all of us. Now this surly was a great set back as Credit Card may not be used by everyone but Checks are the main source to withdraw money from your Alertpay account and if its not available for you than you have very limited options left.

This situation gets even worst when they disabled Master & Visa card payment option on October 6, 2011 without any notification. At that time people seriously start thinking that soon Alertpay will going to scam and they starting withdraw money as soon as possible from their accounts. This quick money withdrawal makes the situation even more critical for Alertpay as they were already struggling with banking issues.

Every-time they disabled any payment withdrawal option they say that soon they will enable this feature as this is only temporary issue but its going to be a full year now and they haven’t enable any disabled feature yet which is going to make this situation very serious. Although you can still withdraw your money from Alertpay Prepaid Visa Debit Card but many people are also starting to complaint about this card too. Many visitors of my blog are complaining that they are not receiving their Alertpay card in Pakistan even after 60 days and Customer support is also not responding to their emails which is very alarming for all of us.

So Alertpay is a Scam or Not:

After reading all above material one can easily starting to assume that Alertpay is a big scam but i personally feel that Alertpay will never be a scam. Yes they are facing huge banking issues and no one knows when they resolve these problems but Alertpay is a registered company in Canada and owned by Firoz and Ferhan Patel of India. Its a websites which is run by a scammer or its not even possible to run by few individuals.

There is a whole lot of team members involved in this company and they have offices all over the world. They are operating since 2005 and i personally have never ever face any problem what so ever with them. But yes now they have very limited payment withdrawal options so if you are not easy with their payment withdrawal options you might have to switch to another online payment processing merchant like MoneyBookers or Payoneer PrePaid Mastercard etc.
