I don't see any similarities from Epass closing with the Mallick scam, to this Paxum situation.

What is happening is now is US personal account holders getting a hard assfucking. If you must close US accounts is one thing, but 48hrs notice is ridiculously small.

Paxum, can you guys setup a system so when our accounts are closed, and payments attemped to send to us, we can get a notification? so we can know to contact those companies to send payment another way? Something like this would be very helpful. Thank you

When I verified my account I was sent to finish the signup.

There is no "United States" option for Citizenship.



Under Country Of Birth there is an option for "United States"



But again for Country Of Residence there is no option for "United States"



Has anyone else seen this?

US and Nevada dropdowns are on mine. Make sure you FIRMLY press "Business Account".

I would think the Cam sites are going to be pretty pissed about all of the work that will need to be done by the Jan 15 end of the current pay period.

A trusted individual of a trusted company should be the middleman. Have Paxum pay X company for you, then they transfer it to you via your preferred method. Charge affiliates the fees, if any, plus a buck or two. This way USA personal accounts don?t have to incorporate but just change payee on each sponsor.

A smart, trusted, proven company can help everyone plus make a little extra cash. If people pay. $50 for wire transfer, they?ll pay $10 for this. Depends how greedy or helpful you want to be.

I?m curious why this is happening with such short notice. Sounds like they had an idea of this several months ago. Is it the banking industry, the government, IRS, or something totally different? Will others follow or just Paxum? That?s the key question.

To clarify, only USA Personal Account-Holders are affected.

We have been listening to your feedback, and as a result we have decided to extend the deadline by 48 hours to Friday, January 12th at 10:01am ET. We hope this helps make the transition a little easier for you.

All USA Personal Account-Holders accounts will be closed effective January 12th, 2018 at 10:01 ET.

Another thing that could help us get this situated would be to raise our daily withdraw limits so we can withdraw our $$ quicker. Thank you

As for the 48 hour notice. The 48 hour is for you to manually go into your account and transfer the funds to your bank or to your card.

If you do not do this within 48 hours we will start the process for you.

No one will have funds stuck with us.
Because this is a situation which obviously just popped into Paxum's radar within the last 48hrs..

Even "verified personal accounts"? Because I didn't get any emails. Neither did my business partner. Both had to send in shit ton of "do it this way" pictures of our IDs.

It's not all that much, but if they charge $50 for a wire to my bank, I'll get like $7.

Looks like the USA is building a wall around itself.
A lot of countries en companies stop serving people from the USA.
Residency applications, Bank Accounts, Btitcoin Banks, Coin Exchanges, etcetra etcetra.
Eveywhere you see the question if you are from the USA, and then refuse you.

Withdrawal is not working. When I try to withdraw the amount that is left in my account I receive this error:

Errors : You don't have enough money in this account !

Can you Paxum guys fix this issue?

Very true. As Lizz said something is building against US and friend/master. Won't be pretty when it resolves.

It sucks, trust me it does since I pay remote employees in the US with paxum. HOWEVER, this isn't new. It's just new that paxum has been pulled into the web of USA red tape (paypal already has to comply, but I think they're big enough they can navigate the legal crap easier).

What this comes down to is an Obama era law called FACTA. This was a HUGE clusterfuck for any US citizen that had a foreign bank account or foreign pension. Basically it means that the financial institution has to report about US citizens accounts to the USA.

When FACTA rolled out there were a lot of banks around the world that basically said "fuck the USA" and just shut down the bank accounts of US citizens. What made this pretty horrible is for overseas citizens, those bank accounts aren't "foreign" accounts. They're our local, everyday living bank accounts.

However, because the US wanted to go after the less than 1% that's hiding assets offshore, it basically made it harder to a) do business with americans b) be an overseas citizen. What really pisses me off about this is it costs more to go after that 1% because it's caught all of us living overseas but don't have to pay taxes in the web. Someone at the IRS and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (they deal with FACTA and FBAR) still have to be paid to go over our taxes and forms but most of us don't actually have to pay taxes. Talk about government waste.

So while I agree that the short notice sucks, if you don't like this Americans need to write your representatives about this bullshit.

Thinking you meant to reference FATCA. As FACTA is all about identity theft and the former is about foreign accounts held by US citizens.

In 2008/2009 99% of calls to Congress were AGAINST the bank bailout. Congress voted twice, and the second time, about 2/3rds of Congress listened ONLY to the 1%.

Fuck calling or writing Congress.

They told me a long time ago that once you transfer from checking to Card, you can't transfer back.

That would be something useful right now.

I can see why it would be expensive to comply with FATCA, perhaps that's why Paxum opened up their 'bank' so that they can somehow avoid it. But seems like that would result in being cut off from the US in one form or another anyway. Is Paxum popular for US based webmasters? If I lived there I'd opt for some form of direct payment rather than losing out to Paxum fees.

It doesn't matter if they stayed as money transfer or a bank, bottom line is if you have US citizens using your product you have to comply with FATCA.

Gotcha, but what's the difference between a business and a personal account in terms of reporting?

I can confirm what Petra said, FACTA thing applies to everything, not just bank accounts but any kind of money form. In fact, if i would open tomorrow "klen coins", i would have to report all US clients to IRS otherwise i would end up on blacklist.

The people behind paxum are smart. It's a great company and honestly can't say anything wrong about them.

I can exchange it for you today if you want.

FATCA/FBAR only applies to personal accounts. Reporting is different for companies.

I don't want to transfer the $$ in the Mastercard account. What I need is to be able to put the little $7 in checking onto my Mastercard, have the Mastercard expiration changed to a few days or even the end of the month so I could go and buy groceries with the $50 or so that's left in Mastercard. Doing ATM wouldn't get me ALL of the money as they only dispense funds in $20 increments.

Yes, it's a small amount overall compared to some of you, but I work hard for my "biz" payments.

Thanks, but I can't get to it. The Mastercard has expired and they are holding the money I have on it in limbo somewhere. There's no option to move money onto it from Checking either. Otherwise I'd just go buy something and use it up.

I wrote Ruth, perhaps she'll have a solution. Crossing fingers!
