Its not Dec 11th yet!
Why can’t I still use Skype credit as advertised!!!!

Because we announced in our post from November 18 that we will discontinue Skype Credit support on November 30 with our next update. This gives Skype the time to close down the Skype payment system.

NICHT GUT!!! die 99cent möglichkeit war super..aber immer gleich 5 euro…schlecht

Wie ich schon am 18. November geschrieben habe hat Skype entscheiden die 99cent Option einzustellen. Die Transaktionskosten waren extrem niedrig und jetzt müssen wir auf Kreditkarten, PayPal, usw. ausweichen. Die Transaktionskosten sind leider wesentlich höher. Aber PamFax ist trotzdem der einzige Dienst der nur Zahlung von €5 ermöglicht damit du faxe verschicken kannst. Alle andere Dienste verkaufen dir gleich ein Monatsabo. Daher, finde ich, sind €5 zu verschmerzen.

It wants me to pay $7.59 US dollars to send a fax. No way!! I wish it could just take the 0.37 cents from my skype credit.

Will PamFax be restored in the future with skype?

There is always a reason when the amount is higher then the standard rates. PamFax is pretty bold in telling you why the cost is higher and even asks you to accept it – it won’t send unless you have understood and accepted the higher cost. The cost is related to sending to service numbers, etc. But of course this could be in error so the best thing is to open a support ticket, provide your account details and then our staff can find out why this is. Apologies for any confusion this caused.

It still works with Skype, just the Skype Credit access has been discontinued because Skype decided to discontinue it.

Instead of min. €1 we had to increase to €5 min. purchase (see blog posts on http://www.pamnews.com). It is still a unique offer compared to other services as we don’t require you to sign up to a monthly plan.

We are working with Skype and are trying to convince them to reactivate the Skype Credit support.

It worries me a bit that I don’t see https:// in the payment window…

Where is that? All orders are processed via ssl secured online shop at https://www.pamfax.biz/shop

it was very good and easy to use our skype credit, it should be resumed soon. thanks…

Yes, I totally agree. It was an easy way to purchase partner services. Let’s hope Skype reconsiders and brings this feature back as part of a new add-on platform (e.g. like Apple and many others already have).

This is BS. I had to get a fax outday….it errored and I needed to resend,…… only to find out that I cant use it any longer with skype ….how is this free?

Take oit off te free listing!!!!

Where does it say it’s completely free? Sending faxes via PamFax is not free and has never been free. Only the client application and the addons are free and there is no monthly charge like with all the other faxing services out there…

I bought skype credit only for the pamfax, but I don’t know skype discontinued the services only I want to get the skype credit to pamfax. It still have can$10. what can i do , i want to take back the money to buy the pamfax, otherwise, it will be a waste!

Unfotunately we have no more access to Skype Credit as Skype disabled this function for all partners. Try to get a refund from Skype and then you can purchase directly with us. Apologies for the inconveniences.

Sorry to see a reversal in what would have been an ideal situation for me. I will now remove the 10 minute old installation of PamFax from my PC.

Too bad, you can still buy PamFax credit directly starting at only €5.

you might loose your customers!

I know, but we can not “force” Skype to offer it. It is their decision.

Envío 2 faxes al año, y los pago a 1€/u. 5€ es excesivo y no es rentable ni útil para mí

If you are only faxing two pages a year you can better fax from a friends fax machine.

Bitte ändert mal eure Google-Werbung, da steht nämlich heute immer noch: “Jetzt mit PamFax, einfach mit Skype Credits bezahlen!” Ich habe das Programm deshalb installiert und werde es leider gleich wieder deinstallieren. Es bleibt zu hoffen, dass Skype die Funktion bald wieder zulässt.

Danke, ist ein guter Punkt. Als Alternative haben wir eine €5 Zahlung freigeschaltet (ohne Abo, etc.). Gegenüber die €1 Zahlung von Skype Guthaben wäre es vielleicht zu überlegen PamFax nicht zu de-installieren? Zumal es wenige Preisgleiche “ohne Abo” Alternativen gibt.

I would have gladly used the service and paid…something upfront. But certainly not EUR 5. I send only a few faxes per year. I would pay EUR 3 upfront but not 5. Please lower your upfront charge and surely you will get much more business

too much ‘blind’ money in advance. at least you should have a test fax offered to 1st time users at actual cost to let people trust your service does work. i’ve had problems with pamfax before and would never give you 5 euros in advance until i’m certain it now works

Yes, I fully agree – €5 was the minimum we could do in relation to transaction cost with low amounts. Note however there are not many services around which work the same way, most of them require you to pay a monthly fee to send. We hope Skype re-considers adding the payment feature back.

First time users have one free page to test the service.

I have been a loyal user for some time now.
I cant use my skype credit, and you wont accept my visa electron card for payment, and it wont allow me to use that method via paypal either.
Therefore I am unable to use pamfax anymore. The hunt for an alternative service has begun…

There is RBS WorldPay, Moneybookers, PayPal and CashU as payment methods now. They all support various cards. If your card is not accepted, please contact the payment provider as we have no influence on their systems and security mechanism at all.

i wanted to test the service, but I’m not able to, because I only have 14 cents and I need 23 for zone2

however, when I buy some credit (5€) will I have all the money for my faxes or do you take some for administration or transition? and is there an expiration? if I can use the “real” 5€ over the next month or even years, than I can’t understand all the sissies here.

thx for a soon answer.

You say first time users have one page free. I don’t see that option being offered when I’m on the fax sending screen. Please explain click by click

so, I couldn’t wait. I just bought the 5€ credit and have sent my fax. it seams that I can use the whole amount (5€), I just hope it will not expire.

@pamfax, it looks professional and i like your service

@all who are living in the past -> read the book “Who moved my cheese”

Yes, you can use the entire amount, there is no fee deducted. You can use the credit indefinitely however you should send a fax at least every 180 days to validate your account.

When you install PamFax you will see that there is already credit present (look in the top right of the PamFax application). This is the free credit which you can use to send a fax.

I bought the 5 euro credit with my visa card but the final cost has been 5.85, of which only 5 appeared as Pamfax credit. So at least with Visa there is an administrative fee.

Not really, but as you are in EU we must add 19% German VAT to your order (unless you are a company and entered a EU-VAT number in our shop, then the VAT is removed). So the total amount is €5,00 + 19% (€0,95) = €5,95. Actually it seems you paid €0,10 less .
