T3 source

[Jangee]

Good morning

Is there a source for T3 that accepts card payments? Those I've seen do far only accept bank transfer.

Many thanks 😊

From a post yesterday, it would appear that the credit card companies are now reluctant to pay for medications from overseas.

Jangee,

MasterCard and Visa have withdrawn merchant facilities from sellers who don't sign up to FDA's LegitScript and supply prescription only meds without prescription. Many will accept Western Union or MoneyGram in addition to Bank transfer which can have heavy transfer fees.

It's a real nuisance, and I've recently been stung for high bank transfer charges. Not all suppliers have accounts with the major transfer services, unfortunately.

Unfortunately, it seem that recently, PayPal has made it impossible for some suppliers to use their services, forcing these suppliers to resort to bank transfers (sometimes to countries outside the EU).

[Hillwoman in reply to Hidden]

Yes, I understand that PayPal adopted a rather moralistic stance some time ago. They even told one board-certified full pharmacy service in the US, that they (PP) didn't want to facilitate card payments because the pharmacy was not the kind of business they wanted to be connected with!

Have found Western Union very good and easy to use.

How do you organise Western Union? and are there any commission payments etc. I'm in Hertfordshire, UK.

I paid with my Lloyds bank card recently and was charged a £10 bank fee. When my hubby paid through an app, he had to scan in council tax forms etc. It was all a bit of a pain. Thank you, Lily

Hi lilytalukder ,you go on the site, from what I remember (have not used them for about 2 years) and it more or less tells you what to do. I think I had to pay about £5 as commission. My bank charged extortionately.

I've recently bought some Thyroid S & used paypal to pay & I used my card for that.

They don't get your card details so it's secure in that way.

Thanks everyone a member gave me a great link for Greek T3 that lets you pay by PayPal so I've ordered from there 😊 I've been on NDT for 6 months but not quite there yet (tsh 0.7 but still symptomatic) I am going to experiment with a quarter (5mcg) tablet of T3 & see how it goes x

Hi Jangee, I've been on T3 for 3 years and was ordering easily until a few months ago. Now they want bank transfer and Escrow payments, which is a hassle, but worse than this, the Unipharma supplies seem to be out of stock at all of my suppliers. Do you have a supplier you can help me with? I don't mind Tiromel either, its weaker so need to take more, but effective also. Thank you.
