Paypal cannot be used on poker sites so not much use being "free" Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: danmonkey on October 18, 2005, 10:43:34 AM If you register your bank account with neteller you can withdraw by bank transfer and the fee is £1. Takes a few days but better than a cheque.
Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: winkie on October 18, 2005, 02:17:50 PM I've just cashed out from a poker site to my Neteller account (apparently this can take 24 - 48 hours).
Does anyone know what exchange rate (from $ to £) they use (or where I can find this information)...? My Neteller account is in £. I've registered my bank account with Neteller, but if I withdraw to my bank account, am I charged a flat rate of £1 (as per danmonkey's post)? Or is a % taken...? Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: matt674 on October 18, 2005, 02:23:25 PM They dont post an exchange rate on their site but its usually quite resonable - i withdrew some money from my pokerstars account on sunday night, it arrived in my neteller account last night for me to withdraw by cheque. The rate i got was just under £1-$1.80 and as the actual rate on sunday night was £1-$1.755 i didnt think this was too bad (much cheaper than any bank or foreign exchange place would offer).
Every withdrawal i have made by cheque costs me £2, i believe it is cheaper to have it paid straight into your account but i didnt want to give them my bank details. The cheque normally only takes 48 hours to come in the post Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: winkie on October 18, 2005, 02:39:51 PM Thanks for the post matt... I'll see how i get on...
Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: danmonkey on October 18, 2005, 02:50:56 PM The exchange rate for neteller is 1.9% below spot I believe and this obviously changes from day to day. Its really not bad, I got about .554 £ per $ from neteller on Sunday - Natwest would offer me .538 today on my holiday cash. They don't list it on their website, though you may be able to find out by ringing them direct.
And it is just £1 to withdraw direct to your bank account - see 'Withdrawal fees' on side of the page where you withdraw. Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: goonner on October 18, 2005, 03:12:07 PM If anyone wants to save on charges (money management a key factor I am told)
Open an account with VC, then you can transfer your winnings from netteller into VC than out straight into your bank with no charges / cheques. VC normally pays out in 1 or 2 days. Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: M3boy on October 18, 2005, 04:14:43 PM Just get the Neteller Debit Card, then you can withdraw the cash from your neteller account at virtually ANY cash machine

Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: M3boy on October 18, 2005, 04:21:54 PM No idea about charges
But I do know that the VC route works well with NO charges (I have used this method before) Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: Robert HM on October 18, 2005, 04:24:14 PM Cheers
Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: Royal Flush on October 18, 2005, 04:26:19 PM Be carefull, last time i tried VC route it no longer worked!
Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: danmonkey on October 18, 2005, 04:26:52 PM The Neteller debit card charges you £2 per transaction.

Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: lvlarc_uk on October 18, 2005, 10:39:36 PM Could someone tell me what VC is and do they charge to accept money from neteller accounts?
Cheers Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: Ironside on October 18, 2005, 10:44:31 PM no online site charges for depostit or withdrawl to neteller, if they do then they wont get many users
VC= victorchandler a big name uk bookie Title: Re: neteller accounts Post by: lvlarc_uk on October 18, 2005, 10:52:24 PM Ahh right, so you deposit funds from neteller into VC, then withdraw the funds into bank account with no charge, this should save me a few quid ;)
