I got lucky at Wells Fargo, and was able to make a deposit into your account! It was weird, I could not transfer directly from my account, or deposit
cash, but they printed out a counter check (at no cost) and I was able to sign it and make the deposit.
I asked why I was not able to add your account to the recipient list using Zella, and they walked me through the process so that from now on I can do
it from my keyboard at home!
I swear that they did not do anything differently than I tried to do at home, but it succeeded on the bank's computer. I don't use a phone banking
app, so all that was necessary was your account number, and e-mail address. No routing number or phone numbers needed for account to account
transfers.

Please sign up! The B&B is outstanding, as is the cause. I seems like those that help, always do. There are many that post here that should pony
up for this cause.

If an individual (in the US) would open their own PayPal account, they can send you funds directly to your bank (anywhere in world) via XOOM.com
Funds can also be sent to many banks in Mexico for you to access with a transaction number provided by Xoom.
I send money to Guatemala in a few minutes with my own personal PayPal account. Money can also be sent to other sources deemed nearer to you such as
stores.
If you want to send money...just open your own Paypal account. Blanca does not need to have one.

This is what seemed weird to me!
I have a Wells Fargo account, with a debit card linked to my checking account. Because of some new money laundering concerns, I was not able to
deposit cash into an account other than my own. Neither was I able to make a transfer with my debit card and pin number. I was, however, able to
make a deposit using the same account, but I had to write a check!
They wanted a paper trail with my account number, signature, and photo ID. I did not have a check with me, but they said "no problem" and printed one
out for me to sign at no charge. Weird!

Just go to xoom.com and sign in under the Paypal link. It will return you to xoom.
Go through the 'how much' 'who to' 'where to' etc. you will get a list of places that include most all banks in Mexico or US or wherever you are
sending money to. As well there will be in that list such places as stores, money houses, etc. You choose.
Blanca can go to any bank you choose (If in Mex I would coordinate with her) and it doesn't have to be her bank just as in any store that does it.
You will give her the assigned transaction number (U2U her) and she walks in and collects the cash.
I've never done it to a US bank but I don't see why not. I might try sending money to myself the next time I'm in Guatemala and see if that works for
the Paypal account holder.

waiting for Paypal to clear deposit into the account. They take the money immediately from your bank account, then somehow mysteriously it takes 5
days to show up in paypal. I'm sure they are not using it to loan out at overnight rates!@ 
regardless, they say the 11th it will be available, I will zoom it as soon as it shows up!

Your choice Blanca!
Ok Blanca, I just sent you another $80. You can use it to fill up raffle #1 with two more numbers, or give me one chance on raffle #2.
You pick the numbers and let me know what they are, I don' have any favorites! Let me know how soon it clears, W.F. says it should just take minutes.
(I used Zelle)

that is incorrect, I know because I just tried, Xoom can only be used to move money from USA to foreign account (or visa versa) you cannot xoom
between usa accounts.
I can xoom to a local pick-up, bancomer oxxo etc, but you would have to tell me the nearest xoom pick-up, you could walk in and pick up cash in 15
minutes. maybe google up xoom pick up locations , and see if one is convinient to you?
