really grateful if anyone can help on this

i am trying to pay , via a credit card, a deposit of £1700 to a chinese supplier. Unfortunatley they say they can only accept TT

Any suggestions of ways around this?

thank you

In China, we only accept Chinese credit card, and very few big named stores accept international credit card, not mention credit card to a company/factory/supplier. It's almost impossible.

The best way would be after a due diligence checking on your Chinese supplier, arrange payment by wire transfer.

You have checked these out first right and not just trusted them straight away? £1700 is a big amount to lose. What are you buying if you don't mind me asking?

It seems like it is the only way to pay.... & of course this is a normal thing in China when it comes to TT payment...

Gotta do some research on that company before paying..

Maybe this company have't registered in China. that you would take a rish of scammed.

For a big amount, don't use Paypal,,WesternUnion,MoneyGram.

Show the supplier 's company name, i can check the company whether is legit .

Any research that you have done on this Company Alderson..?!

Either check that they are real or forget about it, this would be a dream for scammers, to pay with credit card then CHARGEBACK
