WOuldn't use Gunpal for a while if I were you guys
Gunpal, or Gpal as they call it now, is having massive problemos right now, I hear they are trying to fix it all, something about one of the banks they use or whatever. Anyway, until they right their ship, i'd use another method for any transactions.
