2scorehigh! Wat about we send u airtime and u send us d story, it would save us d stress cos I haven't even attempted the paypal stuff and I don't think most of us will.... D fact dat u have knowledge than most of us in terms of software and internet stuffs doesn't really mean u can convince us into doing wat we don't have the intention of doing! Do u knw dat some people do not even have a paypal acct and will go through the stress of opening one but it is all to no avail! U are a computer expert and we aren't and I think u shud consider us! U may have noticed dat other authors didn't comment on dis thread, I'm not quite sure why they didn't but I guess its becos of ur rules which most of us will find it very hard to abide to! I'm not trying to confuse u but I wish I could convince u to help us out cos there are series of ways in which we can make payment since dats wat u want and we are fascinated and curious to read this story! I just hope u can consider what I just said... Pls don't pretend not to see dis

Hmm…PayPal wahala? Izukwu nwanne m, I don’t understand. I’m so confused because my own is going so well. Click on https://www.paypal.com/ng/ to register.

It’s completely FREE so there’s nothing like (In Bluestarry’s voice) I’m a student as if all of us are not students too.

Anyone can get a free PayPal account. It’s just like your gmail or yahoomail account!

Guys, please let’s understand one thing. This is not about me giving you my account so that you can send the money directly to me.

No.

It’s about easy, smooth and fast delivery in business which is the beauty and joy of online business.

Yes. It’s time we all upgrade.

Just look at this scenario. Let’s say I’m using GTBank and I give you my GTBank account number. Now, let’s also assume GTBank is not in your area, like GTBank is not in my area. In fact, the nearest GTBank to where I stay at the moment is almost two hours away!

Okay.

So now, assuming you don’t have a trusted and diligent someone to ask to help you make the payment, you might then have to travel all that distance to the nearest GTBank, and then possibly, you stand in the long queue just to make a payment that is not even up to N500!

Chai! Mba nu! Chukwu ajụ! Who has all that time?!

But that’s not even the ONLY problem.

Just imagine, like today is a Saturday or like now that it’s already night time, so even if I give you my account for you to make the payment, tell me, how will you do that?

Hmm.

Okay, what if today is a Sunday? Or a public holiday? Will it still be possible to go to the bank to make such payments?

NO.

What if you are abroad? How will you then make the payment to me?

You see…?

Okay. Let’s say after every every, you were able to make the payment; I will still have to wait for the bank to send me an alert, before I can then send you the book file.

Nah! That's not how to run a standard and modern online business nowadays! Old things have passed away! Bikonu, this is 2014 so we seriously need to upgrade!

Oh yes.

We need to start appreciating and fully utilizing what these oyibo people and programmers are doing for us by making these things so simple and fast and straight forward for us all.

If you are using a very secured service like PayPal, I tell you, you will start at anytime that is convenient for you, and complete the whole process in less than five to ten minutes right inside the comfort of your own room and you will start reading the novel immediately!

That’s the beauty of online payments!

When Nigerians were not allowed on PayPal, we use to go through a lot of hell to make online payments but that was in the past. Nigerians can now make online payments with PayPal.

So don’t fail to use this opportunity because tomorrow you might be the one who has written a very nice and interesting book or someone with a very powerful or hot product online and trust me, your customers will not like it at all if you put them through the long stressful and painful process of going to the bank and standing in the long queue just to make a very small payment!

In fact, as true Nigerians we are and knowing what we can do, they will simply curse you, and then leave you and start looking for an alternative!

So…

We really need to learn how to do these things because if we don’t, one day, we might have to pay someone as much as N20,000 or N50,000 or even N100,000 just to open a free PayPal account for us or maybe to fund it for us, as a result of our ignorance or inability to follow some simple straightforward instructions.

God forbid.

I say this with so much regret because I can still recall that I actually paid someone to open my first yahoomail account for me way back in 2003! And the bad guy was squeezing his face and acting like an expert as if he were doing something so wonderful, powerful, and extraordinary for me.

Well, as at that time, I wouldn’t blame him though because I also thought he was the best and simply out of this world with the magic he was performing right before my very eyes.

Well, that was then. He’s lucky I don’t know where he is today, or else…

So don’t let that happen to you.

Follow this link: http://www.ogbongeblog.com/2014/07/fund-paypal-in-nigeria-with-access-bank.html to see the simple and well detailed steps on how you can Sign Up for your own free PayPal account and get it verified today!

There’s no PayPal wahala anything. Trust me, it’s very simple. And very easy. Just like opening a yahoomail or gmail account.

As you will see, the guy mentioned Access Bank ATM Visa card in the steps he gave but you can try your own bank’s ATM Visa or MasterCard, which I presume you already have, in verifying your own PayPal account. A friend of mine used Diamond Bank Visa card. Me, I used my UBA Africard Visa Card to verify mine.

Once you have verified your PayPal account, you can then start making use of it to make online payments anytime you want from the comfort of your room sharperly, as long as you have adequate funds in your bank account.

That’s all.

Now when you have your PayPal account verified, you will then click the Smashwords link I gave and follow the simple instructions I gave here: https://www.nairaland.com/1871293/ify-romantic-thriller/7#26535856 to download the book file.

This will not take you more than two minutes. I swear!

Now to start reading the novel, you will download the correct FBreader for your system. I read eBooks with either my laptop or my Android phone so I downloaded the FBreader for Windows and installed it on my computer. I also downloaded FBreader for Android and installed it on my Android phone.

So you can download and install the FBreader that is suitable for your system and then you can use it start reading the novel immediately.

Forget all these grammar and all these jargons I’ve been yarning about all along. It’s not a long a process. In fact, this whole thing will not take up to ten minutes if you just DECIDE to follow the instructions.

This whole story can be summarized as thus:

1. Sign Up for PayPal and get verified with your MasterCard or Visa ATM card.

2. Visit the Smashwords link to start the process of downloading the book file.

3. Visit FBreader to download the suitable FBreader for your reading device which you will use to open and view the book file you downloaded from Smashwords.

Simple.

If you run into any difficulty, you can always ask somebody for help but the thing is that most of us will not even like to make the effort and that is really really too fuc.k.ing bad!

To be frank with you, it pains me so much when I hear people complain and say it’s hard, it’s difficult, it’s a long process, I don’t want the wahala involved, and so on and so forth…

Because I know it’s nothing but just excuses since most of us will always prefer that another person does it for us as we don’t want to task our brain or learn something new!

Which is too bad.

Because we really need to upgrade.

If you remember what Vincent said during his interview, he said and I quote: “Besides, technology wise, the world today is changing so fast these days. Existing technologies are being made obsolete so soon by newer ones. Jobs are disappearing so fast. In fact, it is becoming very obvious in our dynamic world today that those who will survive are only those who can adapt to these frequent changes. Luckily for us, computers (and internet of course!) present us with a very bright opportunity to take on or address some of these changes.”

C’mon guys…

We can do it.

So let’s do it!
