But the fees are for us, not for you. If you donate 1 EUR, you'll pay 1 EUR - not more. We'll just receive a bit less - but your account will still be credited according to what you donated, not to what we received. |
I use internet transactions (via 'de postbank') to donate money, but when I sent money to an other country, like Belgium (I live in the Netherlands) it is well...kind of weird. When I fill in the form on the website, I can choose of 3 options how the transaction costs could be devided.
1. The costs (almost € 8,-) are for me.
2. The costs are for i4games.
3. Split the transaction costs.
Even when I filled in the IBAN/BIG code, the transaction has still to be payed.
What now?

With IBAN, you shouldn't have fees within Europe countries. 8 EUR sounds high too. You sure you didn't enter 10,000 EUR instead of just 10 EUR?

LOL!
No I did'nt. It does not matter how much money I transfer, Each transaction has € 8,- transaction costs. Very weird indeed.
I think i'm going to call 'de postbank' and ask for some explanation.
-I play far more then 15 hours a week-

From the Postbank website:
Postbank website wrote: | When you transfer money to Belgium this way (using the IBAN and BIC), you only have to fill out the first page of the form. Your transfer then will be handled by SHARED fee (sha). This means that amounts up to EUR 12.500 will cost you nothing (see the terms for Eurogiro basis fee). For amounts of EUR 50.000 and more you will pay the Eurogiro fee. |
(Translated from Dutch by VTe - who made his donation thru Postbank without any fee.)

that's because 'de postbank' is not a real bank.
It's something between a postal service and a bank.
We don't have that in belgium. It's almost the same as paying with a post cheque if you want to do a transaction that way.
I once payed a dutch server (money went from Belgium - Holland) and I payed with a normal bank to 'de postbank'.
As 'de postbank' has slightly other numbers, there is a fee to be payed which is indeed very high.
I payed double cost for my contribution to the server.
Second time I payed I just bought an anniversary card for the one who payed the server and put cash money in it
Can't you use a normal bank buh?

I think your mistaken. 'De postbank' is just a normal bank, and has nothing to do with a postal service.

Okay, I selected 'kosten delen' 'SHA' and sent the transaction.
I typed at the 'remark' field: Payment for account: buh.
That would be enough.
I hope it's going to be o.k.

In order to have your payment correctly processed, you should use the communication as indicated in the donation page.
But it's OK, I'll manage.
