Also, they can only send a voucher through if they already have an account up and running, as this is also seen as a money laundering risk.

I ask everyone this now.

The number of times I have been waiting for a voucher that never arrives, only to discover they only opened the account there and then to send the deposit.

Yes I learned to advise vouchers can take up to 4 hours to arrive, I stipulate if it arrives too late I don't issue refunds only move to a different time convenient for both.  Also I didn't accept screen shots, same for any other form of deposit or payment.

Apparently folks are having trouble with cashouts not coming through. One worker reported that suddenly, without warning, cashapp introduced limits of receiving gbp100/monthly in the UK.
I know of at least 2 people who have lost money with the app, thought I'd write a warning here for people take different measures for deposits and such.

I usually use CashApp for clients to pay deposits (such as no feedback or if I have to travel) but I am getting more and more clients telling me they can't get CashApp to work. I also find it to be hit or miss on my end.
I would use PayPal but it's attached to my real name, as is my bank account and just about anything else I could use. Does anyone know of a way I can recieve money online without disclosing my actual name?

Cashapp have imposed incredibly low limits on everyone in the UK, it's no longer viable unless you can stay within £100 in £100 out and £200 withdrawal per month.

Does anyone accept crypto payments - either deposit or full booking amount? I'm blocked on cashapp and I have a very unique surname so I'm reluctant to do bank transfers as someone could easily search for me online

I use square

Which is a card machine and you can send the link via text.
It states in my profile it is 50% deposit plus a 2.5% few on top.
That's what square charges you so at least your are covered.

Just a heads up about PayPal.  I have an outcall booking from an international client, for outcalls I always ask for a small deposit.  He wanted to pay using PayPal (which I'm reluctant to do) however agreed to it.  I set a business PayPal account up over a year ago which I had used for a couple of transactions, but haven't used it in over a year.  It was set up in my work name, brand new email and my business bank account.....nothing relating to my personal account.

The client sent the deposit to my business account, but when I got the email from PP saying funds have been sent, it showed my real name.  I checked my personal account and the funds were in there!  Somehow PP have merged my business and personal accounts, and now the client knows my real name (which isn't a common name, although I'm not too concerned about this).

They can easily buy an Amazon voucher and then text you the code I’ve had a few so this for me

The problem I had was many would pay more than the deposit, some the entire fee by voucher usually without even asking. When someone repeatedly cancelled then paid a higher or same deposit I wasn't getting any actual real money.  :FF

Voucher doesn't pay my bills, doesn't pay the tax due on that income, added an extra account for my accounts.

If someone insists on paying their deposit this way I'm now saying it's in addition to my fee, but I'm no longer mentioning it to enquirers.

If someone paid by a voucher though what’s to stop them sending you the code and then using it themselves before you have chance?

I’m getting more people asking for bank transfers because they don’t have their card with them and I don’t want cash app or anything so thought a couple a week could send a voucher I would use. Has anyone had someone spend it first before?

They can't with Amazon vouchers/gift cards, because you add the value to your account so you can spend it when you're ready. So if you went to add it and it said the balance was zero, no booking :)
