Default Taking orders by phone

Paypal still doesen't allow Europeans to set up a virtual office wich include taking orders by phone.

As I am venturing into making tangible products offline with DM I find myself in dire need of a low cost alternative for taking orders by phone...

Any seasoned marketers out there know or use a good service for this?

Have you tried Worldpay???

I am in the UK and can take orders from mainland Europe (Germany, France, etc) via Worldpay.

Only downsides are...
1) If you use WorldAccess you have to physically go into their secure site and place the order yourself. Each order takes about 2 minutes, but it's cheaper than having an agency charge you per order processed.

2) Their processing fees are high. About 4.5% per transaction.

3) Their payment schedule is FIVE WEEKS!!! So, if you charge a card on October 10th you don't get paid until November 17th.

We don't use them that often!

Thanks Garret

I checked out theire services, I didn't se that they had any services to accept payment by phone though?

I'm going about this the Gary Halbert way- with only phone as an order alternative
