yes. I guess so. I'm not used to that sort of thing, but I guess we could figure it out. The TD bank has been unusually helpful with such things since they installed a chat-type communication system on their customer service website. They've facilitated it before. We should email about it. Thanks.
I guess I'm going to have to get more confident in general with online payments and all things related. No time like the present to climb up into the 21st century.
I have done several email transfers to friends. Some require a password that is arranged between the two of us, others just accept all gifts that come their way.
TD should be able to help set e transfers up easy peasy, makes it easier for us in Canada to transfer money. I don't do PayPal.
OK, I'll get on with them and ask about it, and I'll send you an email,
thanks again. (Also for pushing me to get this stuff sorted. I come from a different era where everything online seems ephemeral and dangerously unreliable.)
aaaaand I can't do anything right now because I got a new sim card for my phone last month and the bank doesn't know my new number, so I can't access my account...
Yeah Revolut is great and they've recently opened up in Italy. Unfortunately they aren't yet able to issue Italian IBANs, so the IBAN issued is a Lithuanian one. This might work with Stripe though a lot of Italian entities refuse non-Italian IBANs.
Revolut's auditors issued a qualified opinion on their 2021 accounts (which means the published accounts are defective). This only happened a few days ago. I've no idea what the status is with their 2022 accounts.
I'm not saying don't use them, but expect them to go bankrupt at any moment, and act accordingly.
I am in Canada. May I do an e-transfer directly to your TD account?

Oh, ain't the modern world grand!
If you send me an email we can work it out. The TD banking lady said no problem. thanks again.
A stupid question, but how do I email you without putting my email online? Where do I find your email address?

I suggest a look at Revolut - it’s an internet bank, I use it a lot, I find it excellent and easy to use.
Exploring online banking options as we speak.
I can really recommend Revolut, I was convinced by a young lady I travelled on retreat with back in 2018. It’s been very useful and user friendly.
