Re: Is Shipito.com a scam, fraud or a legit service?

I pay $50 per year. Then I transfer exactly the amount that needed to send a consolidated package. In fact this is the best way when using Paypal as it allows to return money in case of a problem.

Shipito have a nerve saying that a customer is lying. I've never come across a company that is as rude, deceitful and downright impossible as Shipito.
You may share your experience in the Shipito forum, so that they can reply to you and confirm that you're a real customer of theirs. Post a link to your forum thread here.

You have no fallback position if the company does not deliver the service you paid for. It's like sending someone cash in an envelope.

If a company won't let you pay via credit card or paypal, AVOID AT ALL COSTS. It means they are not legitimate.
It is a good idea to use Paypal for new companies. Credit card information can be stolen.

In case of Shipito, wire transfer is just a convenient way to transfer large amounts cheaply. It is more for customers who use the service a lot and prefer to save.

Shipito has more than a hundred of thousands of customers (no wonder you may find lots of negative feedback for the company that big). Even if you pay via a wire transfer, don't see any problem returning your money.
