Fencer, i don't really read these boards. I just take a look at HOME's discussion boards from time to time. But now that I looked at the link you have posted, I want to mention a fact.

One of my colleagues, in The English institute where I work, also works in that "bank saderat" and I've already asked him about the money transfer. He himself suggested that for small amounts of money, the bank of Melli which is another bank in Iran is better. I've asked there too. Still the tax they ask for is not fair. Though they say they're working on some rules to make the taxes lessend. Until then, I personally don't find it wise to register to Brainking. I've been lucky those kind people have paid for me but I hereby declare that I want no other person get into trouble of paying for my membership. I thank the two once again an ddo hope I can return their favours as soon as I can.
