Neteller vs. Moneybooker

**pingpong** · 30th November 2006, 10:24 AM

Hi, I am getting tired of all the Neteller fees (deposit-fee, withdrawal-fee, account-to-account-fee). Does anyone know if Moneybooker is less expensive in the long run? And do they have the option to withdraw money directly into your bankaccount? What are people here using to minimize their "transfer-costs"?

Regards,
Pingpong

There is another thread on here that helps you with the fee structure of Neteller. You do NOT have to pay any fees if you use the Neteller "instachash" feature. Most casinos offer this feature and the casino supplements this cost (pays it) to get you to play at their casino. YOU pay NO fee with this feature and it is easily tracked as any other transaction through the Neteller accounting.

Dunno about that netteler no charges thing but I always get charged for withdrawals to my Bank and I can not deposit to Netteler using my Debit card.They also charge ridiculous rates for any currency convertion neccesary as I am in the UK.To add to this I tried to log into my Netteler account the other Day and I received the onscreen message that my account had been closed! So I emailed them and they replied saying I was only allowed 1 account and my recently opened account had been closed. WTF I havent tried to open another account I just log tried to log into my existing account that is over 12 months old? I emailed them back stating this and received a reply......... it was the exact same response as I got to my first email! This is ongoing and it looks like I will have to phone them now so my advice is give Netteler a wide berth and go with Moneybookers who I have been using for about 6months with absolutely no problems(had other problems with Netteler) and I have not been charged 1 penny by them as yet for any transactions.Also I can deposit to my account using my debit card.
Neteller you SUCK.

For those in the UK, MB is the way to go rather than Neteller....they definitely screw you
