Once again I need advice

Hey members, I joined anastasia before I came on this site and realized that I might have wasted my money. I did what some members suggested and got the girl I was writing to send me her address information. My problem is that my credits are almost up, and I want no part of the site. I could send her a letter by mail but I think that would take a long time and I have no way of knowing if the address is legit. I thought about sending flowers with my personal info but the only place that I found in Ukraine that uses paypal (the only online service I have used) requires the lady's phone # which I can't get off of anastasia. I was hoping that you members could give me some suggestions. Thank you.

Use a credit card and have the "card" show your personal information. Also ask the delivery service to get her phone number and e-mail address.

No wonder as Paypal does not directly support Ukraine for an idiotic reason.

Why do you only want to use Paypal?

It is possible to get the phone number if you know the address. If she is from Russia i can help.

There are several places that will deliver flowers without a phone number. They just won't guarantee that she will be home when they go to deliver flowers, so they may have to leave them with a friend or a family member. Which is logical.

I would schedule a flower delivery. Put my email address and my mobile phone number in the message of the card. Ask her to send you an email and / or an SMS when she receives the flowers.

Also ask the flower delivery company to try and get her email and mobile phone number.

Best and quickest way to get her personal contact information.

She lives in Nikolaev.
I'm not against using a different service, Paypal is the only online service I have ever used before.
Have any of you members ever used other online services that you recommend? Also do you members know of a way to get her phone # with only an address? Do you recommend a certain floral company?

http://www.flowers-to-russia.com This is the one I always use. You can do everything online, when you type the card out, just put your info there instead. Don't know if they use PayPal or not tho.

The one I always use is "www.russianservice.com" they do ask for phone number but will deliver it without this info, and you can pay extra (not expensive) to have a picture of the recipent taken at the time of delivery. Without a phone number to verify time of delivery, this may not be an option. With them you can send a card and have any info you desire on this card which will be given to her at the time of delivery also.

Good Luck,

I am slowly working my way out of Anastasia with one of the women I write. Won't use them again. Another suggestion see if you can find her on another site, preferably a local agency. There was another I write (saw her first on Anastasia) that I found her on a local agency, that does allow free exchange of information

When I said goodbye and good luck to the girl I knew from Ukraine I used this exact service. I only used it once but the flowers delivered and a nice picture of her I even posted on this forum from that night so it worked.

But if you don't know your friends address then it might not help.
You need to know it already

Good luck

I would use http://www.russianservice.com
or http://www.russianflora.com
russianservice.com is better in my opinion.
