 Interac e-Transfer is a service in Canada issues

1. Your money is sent from source bank using Interac e-transfer service but not received in destination bank.

-> Wait for 30 mins if you have entered correct email id or phone number for transferring funds. I received sms after 20 mins.

-> If you have destination bank auto deposit enabled but same cellphone number or email id used for other bank then most likely it will not auto deposit. But you will receive email or SMS , mostly sms. My experience I never received email.

-> Nothing happens after an hour then contact source bank for transaction status.

2. How to use same email id and phone number for two bank accounts?

-> Just keep one bank account auto deposit with phone number and other with email id

-> Keep one bank auto deposit OFF and other ON, add both email and phone number where it is ON.

My experience it never worked somehow but give try because some custmers it worked. I had to change email id of auto deposit.

Step by Step how to connect and play US television in India

         Step by Step how to connect and play US television in India 

When you plan to move out of USA biggest question you will get that will all electronic items work? Especially people who stays in UK standard electricity supply have biggest headache. Because in USA electricity supply is on 110-120 V and in India it is 220-240 V or voltage. I was in same boat when got SAMSUNG TV from USA to India. Here are step by step things you need to do when connecting USA television to Indian electricity supply.

• Choice of television in USA. 

Choose your TV which supports PAL video system / standard. See if you get TV which support up to 240 V. Usually user manual of model has all technical details. These are two important things which you have to make sure you have to get if possible. Other choices like 3D , Ultra HD are your up to you. Also compare prices if it is really worth to ship in India. Please click here to check how much it costed me end to end.

•  Things to ship while shipping TV to India from USA

Make sure to include following items in your list if you are shipping TV to India from USA

1. Box pack TV in its original box.
2. TV power cable.
3. TV wall mount stand ( Optional)
4. TV remote . You can carry this in your Air travel bag instead of TV box.
5. TV stand which comes with TV box.

• Items required to before you connect TV 

1. Step Down Voltage Transformer - This is most important and buy only from reliable electricity equipment seller. I have bought it from Mumbai. Contact me if you need seller details. On average TV specification says wattage consumption is about 200 Watt but for safe side buy 1 Kilo Watt step down transformer. For Step down transformer charges click here
2. NTSC to PAL converter - This is optional equipment if your TV support PAL standard. Alternatively if your D2H support NTSC standard then you don't need this converter so plan to buy this later. Please visit following video to know about D2H support to USA television.
3. USA sockets - Buy universal or USA sockets since cable pin sockets in India and USA are different.

Most important is the AWB number which the Air cargo shipping company will give you. So all you need to do is track the shipping for the duration and follow up with respective Airline in India by calling their cargo department.


This blog will provide information for receiving Air Cargo shipment in Mumbai India. So if you are travelling to Mumbai to complete documentation please take note of following. I will update documentation process details later.
1. Do not book any transport vehicle for goods pickup and delivery. There are lot of agencies outside warehouse which will give negotiable rates.
2. Make sure to reach the address earliest morning so that you will have guaranteed release of goods by at least late afternoon.
3. Process of documentation is really slow so carry enough water and food. There is canteen inside as well in case if you wanted to buy and eat.
4. Carry approximate money if you think you will have to pay custom duty on items. There is only SBI ATM outside warehouse.
5. If you are not familiar with roads in Mumbai then UBER or OLA is best option.
6. There are options to choose TR(Transfer of Residency) or NTR while filing application form. If you file TR then you can not again file TR in next 3 years. Keep note of this because you will get stamp of it on your passport.

Once you get paper work done then warehouse people will bring you stuff outside. You can count and check it there itself. From warehouse till gate stuff can be carried by Man cart . They take approximately Rs.300 to Rs. 500 per trip.
