Paynepal.com Service

I am going to tell a very frustrating story about paynepal.com. I was in search of way to get a quick and cheap online money transfer service. Suddenly I found paynepal.com. I was so happy that now I got a solution for the online money transfer service in Nepal. I talked to the owner of the site and I was told I can transfer the money. Then I told my uncle to send money to me from US and he did as I suggested. I got the mail from the site that my amount will be transferred to bank in a week. I went to bank for a month once 3 days in the hope of getting the money. I called them lots of time and they told that it will be done today or tomorrow..Sometimes the owner would say that the site was in test phase... the same thing went on for 2 months. Later they told that their paypal is blocked and I will get the money after their paypal is opened. But the fact is that once a paypal is blocked it takes 6 months.. Did they mean to wait the money for another 6 months? I was really not sure. I tried to call the owner of the paynepal site lots of time but he always escaped. Finally I had no way on what to do to get the money. I went to their office and shouted. Finally I got the money in a year. Wow what a system! Isn't it interesting..? There is none to look after this fraud in our country? Where can we go and complain about this? Who is going to take care of such crimes?

Is ADSL any worth?

ADSL Broadband Service (Internet Solution) is introduced for the first time in Nepal by Nepal Telecom. Everyone seem hurried to get it. Till now the WorldLink Communication had the complete control over the market, but due to this new ADSL service, will it effect the Worldlink communication? I guess yes, But though Worldlink will be effected, internet users over Kathmnandu will be highly benefited by its speed and the cost of service. But let us think on the other part, will the NTC be able to provide support as other ISPs are providing from the installation to the monthly payment collection. Will the NTC be able to do this?

World Links Net2phone Card of no use

Hi all, I bought a net2phone card from www.wlink.com.np but it was of no use. It says it cost only Rs. 250 but they took Rs. 283 (with vat). I called 2 times to a mobile and there was no sound. It says the call was picked and none could hear the sound. I wonder what may be the cause...
