Poll - how much do you still have in Neteller

[blackjackguide]

I am so lucky that one of my payments for close to 1k didn't go through

I had close to 300 in there, I was also in the middle of a transfer to my account. It is lost somewhere between neteller and my bank.

What a complete mess this is. If I owned/ceo of neteller I would not have been in the usa at all.

They were neither...at the time of their arrests, they were simply shareholders...

Even so, they were stupid for not moving once the UIGEA passed.

Hi, is it possible to transfer $ from an US neteller account to a non US neteller private account?

If so it could be the solution to help some players out, having a swiss neteller account and a neteller ATM card. It should be possible for me to withdraw and then wire transfer money to any US bank accounts as a privat person.

Would this be viewed as being illegal?

best regards
Mike

Peer-to-peer transfers from US accounts are no longer possible.

For those of you looking to access the last bit of cash you stuck on your neteller card, 2 things....

1) you can access balance info, and even arrange an ACH transfer to your bank through the card site. Google FSV CARD and click on Cardholder Access link at the bottom of the page. FSV is printed on the back of your NT card.

2) point of purchase transactions are 75 cents. You merely need your PIN and you can load up on gas or starbucks.

I think the poll should include non-US customers.

I requested a bank wire withdrawal (to Australia) for 6500 USD four weeks ago, and have not received a penny. I have called them up multiple times, got differing replies, and e-mailed them three times with no reply. The money has long been deducted from my balance but seems to have disappeared into thin air with no prospect of it ever turning up. Worse, I have an additional 7000 USD stuck in Neteller, most of which was won after I made the withdrawal.

Just because you are a non-US customer doesn't mean you'll ever see your money.

I know for a fact that the ptp from US to non-US neteller customers was working on 31/01/07 - has it changed again since then?

I dont see what the problem is with moving funds this way as neteller still gets their slice at both ends, and if someone wants to give their money away to someone as a gift surely that isnt illegal??

You guys in the US really have it bad and I think what is happening is going to cost more money and manpower than setting up a regulator and a taxation scheme for online gaming....but maybe Im just being too logical

From NETeller's FAQ for US members:

Did NETELLER stop allowing US members to make fund transfers with online gambling sites?

Yes NETELLER recently announced that US members are no longer able to transfer funds to and from online gambling merchants. Please read our press release archive for more information or read the latest press release.


Why isn’t my account certified anymore?

US member accounts have been temporarily de-certified to revoke Peer-to-Peer capabilities. These accounts should be automatically re-certified in the next few days, but Peer-to-Peer transfers will no longer be available to US members.


Why has my NETELLER account been closed? Can I do peer-to-peer transfers?

If you recently performed a Peer-to-Peer transfer, your account may have been temporarily closed. Your account should be automatically re-opened within a few days, but you will no longer be able to perform Peer-to-Peer transfers.

Why can’t I use my NETELLER Card anymore?

The NETELLER Card is not available as a withdrawal option at this time.

We are doing our best to restore our withdrawal options but don't know how long this will take. In the meantime all customer funds held by NETELLER are maintained in segregated trust accounts. We will try to communicate any pertinent changes as soon as practicable.

NETeller is under siege by the DoJ, FBI, and a bunch of other acronyms. They're protecting us from losing our hard earned money to 'money launderers' and 'criminals'. Strange thing is, I never had any problems and always got my money from NETeller -- until the US gov't. got their fingers in the pie.

Neteller now require me to reregister my UK Bank Account. FFS

Thanks for the info Mousey

Really is stupid this whole thing - but at least it gives the DOJ something else to do instead of wasting their time catching crims and terrorists etc
