Hi,

so it looks like you'd have to contact them
for it.

I did this already.
They gave me a bank account from a bank in Ireland.
I sent money to that bank account, and it came back.
I sent it again, it came back again.
I always in between got into contact with the FSF in US.
They gave me  different bank details
I sent a third time money to Ireland,
than it succeeded.

Later I asked them again,
they gave me a bank account from Germany.
I sent money to that bank.
It succeeded, but it takes always month between every step.
The FSF took the money from Germany and transferred it to US.

It is always a hassle, and takes month,
so I was asking for a bank account in Europe.

It could be a problem, why there is no bank account opened up for Guix in France, because the bank account itself costs money. At least in Austria and Germany. May be there is a possibility in France, to open a bank account for Guix which does not cost money itself every month.

thanks

Gottfried

Hi Guix,

it is so difficult to spend money to Guix.

1. I don't use a mobile phone and
2. for security reasons I don't pay over the internet.
3. I do not use paypal any more because I don't want to support this
bad company.

I usually pay via my bank
in going there and
sending money from there.

Additionally to send money from Europe to US is almost a nightmare.

If I had an
European IBAN number (European standard address of a bank account)
and a proper NAME (for the address to spend money to)

I believe the Guix Foundation [0] should be equipped with a an IBAN
number for their bank account, and they are registered in Europe
(France).

Their website does not currently make it easy to donate though, and the
IBAN number is not visible, so it looks like you'd have to contact them
for it.
