Hi,
tried (kinda still trying) to buy some assets on Flippa via Escrow. It was going to be an international wire transfer (above 5k neither CC nor PayPal are an option).
Basically I discovered maaany ways that this does not work and this has been going on for more than 10 days.
Support on Escrow and the "Post Sales Enablement Team" were not helpful and sent me in the wrong direction repeatedly.
Basically I found no way to transfer the money without an IBAN number.
Then the support gave me account details with an IBAN, but of the London based account.
First I sent an EUR amount, which they did not like because the Escrow managed transaction is a USD transaction.
Then I sent a USD amount which apparently the London account can't deal with in general.
Has anybody successfully done this?
Is there something I am missing?
Should I be able to initiate a wire transfer without an IBAN number? Is this not possible from a regular checking account?
Anything else I should know or anything else I can try?
