Thank you very much for all your help and generosity! I need to figure out the easiest and cheapest way to transfer the money. As I have my exam period next week, I have some other priorities (at least, I try :laughing:).

What about https://liberapay.com/poetaster? Paypal is used there.

PayPal.Me might be the better direct method. That’s the account I set up for FOSS project support. EDIT: though I do get 9 euro cents a week from librepay, too :slight_smile:

EDIT, EDIT: and I got it! Thanks @pemek!

Within the EU money transfer is not a problem as it is SEPA. (Hence the IBAN). If you have to transfer out of the EU, cheapest and fastest is wise.com.

Thanks! and, oh dear. I think I’ve sabotaged @pherung ! I’ll DM him since I’m not sure if he wasn’t intending on buy the phone and sending it? EDIT: For info: I’ve sent @pherung my wise IBAN to hopefully make this less stressful. I feel guilty already :slight_smile:

Surely it must be better if you buy it to save on shipping.

Yeah, your probably right. I just feel like I’m interfering with @pherung

You all rock. I feel a bit overwhelmed. @pherung I can simplify this by making it direct since I have a wise account for international (mom, Canada) and national duties. So people can pay into my librepay / paypal or wise accounts. Feels a bit odd.

So far I’ve received 51.50 euro directly, for transparency sake.

EDIT: I should add that I received a christmas donation or 40 euros from a forum member so that’s already 91.50! Jeez. Who says FOSS volunteer work doesn’t pay :slight_smile:

Ok, I’ve offered @pherung to take the whole monetary bit off his hands. We have paypal and librepay links already: PayPal.Me https://liberapay.com/poetaster

Anyone who would prefer a bank transfer, I can DM an IBAN.

Ooof. Ok currently at 207.51 (though there might be a bank transfer that’s not through yet, so it could be more).

EDIT: 242.51

It could be used by scammers. I know this kind of things happened several times at the company I work. Once I even had to give testimony as a witness at court in such a case.
