Which is the best way to Dep & withdraw

[patrina]

Hey Zack, I have some knowledge about this and I feel the best way to deposit is through the pre-paid mc. As pina said, you pay as you go. I do know the card your speaking of, I believe it's a "Vanilla card" you only use it once? Either way, I have used all deposit methods, "echeck, ewallet, moneybookers etc" and the pre-paid card, I find is the best. With all the other options, I have had problems, (but that's just my situation, I'm not saying you will have the same problem) but, with the pre-paid card you can easily keep track of your purchases. If you call them via their # on the back of the card, they charge you like $1.75 for each call and most of the time they tell you their busy and to call back later, and you are still charged, so I highly recommend registering your card at the site as there are no fees involved. As pina said, yes, I pay the $15.00 flat monthly fee. This fee includes all transactions, loads, and you can pay bills etc at no extra charge. I think pina said this too, but if you dont want to pay the $15.00 monthly fee then you pay the $7.95 monthly fee and $1.50 for every transaction at a casino, when you load you pay money mart $2.50 and mc $2.00, So, if you play more then a few times a month then it's well worth it to pay the flat monthly fee, of course that's your choice, but if your like me and have bills to pay too, it's alot cheaper to have them directly paid with your card, instead of paying for a $4 money order or the $1 fee most places charge you to pay your bills. There is a list of perks included with the flat fee, but I dont have them handy. You can look at the site at nextwavetitaniumplus.com As well, I have another card I got from the cash store, this is a money in motion card? They charge alot more then money mart does. Echeck is real handy, and ewallet and moneybookers are also good alternatives but I found the fees high and I had a hard time keeping my transaction logs together. With the withdrawal options I always ask for a cheque, I have used moneybookers too but after the casino deposited my winnings, it took a long time to get my cheque from moneybookers. I prefer to pay the $35 courier fee (if it's a pretty good win) otherwise it will take anywhere from 7-11 days to get your money. It's a good idea to give the casinos where you play, copies of your card & ID so that in the future when you do win you dont have to go through all the hoopla. It can be a real pain in the ass running to the post office 3-4 times to get the copies or fax "right" (Btw pina, did you know when you load your card, you pay that fee to money mart and a $2.50 fee to mc as well?) I found out after about a year that paying the flat fee saved me about $30 a month, anyway, your choice of course!
Anyway nice to meet you Zack I hope this helps!!

Btw pina, did you know when you load your card, you pay that fee to money mart and a $2.50 fee to mc as well?

That's odd Patrina, I've never paid a $2.50 fee in addition to the $2. And if I've paid a bill or cashed a cheque, I pay nothing. If I load $40, and have used one of their services, when I get home and check online, there's $40 on the card. How long have you been paying that? Cause I just did a load one day last week, and there were no additional fees.

Oh, I guess you don't pay the $2.50 now, lol....as you said you do the $15 a month thing. That is strange though why they've never taken that from me. Not that I'm complaining mind you.

I find the Moneybookers cheques come fairly quickly...usually within 5 business days, sometimes 7 at the most. And the maximum fee I've paid is $4.98 or whatever it is.

and funnily enough my taxes still go to Revenue CANADA. Go figure.

With that wip I would have thought you didn't pay any taxes

I gotta agree that questions from Canadian players about our withdrawal and deposit options do not belong in the America The Beautiful thread.

And I hope I am not guilty of cross posting, but Zack asked this elsewhere and I answered there. I wanted to say ask about your withdrawal options before depositing. Rival casinos Simon Says and Slotocash do not offer cheques or bankwires as withdrawal options. And I've had trouble funding my Moneybookers account from my prepaid card, as they make an initial small deposit in Euros, but this appears on my card history as the amount in Cdn funds, and they will not accept this as a verification amount, and money mart was unable to tell me the amount they sent in euros. I could set it up so I can deposit directly from my bank account, a scenario I prefer to avoid.

Exact same thing happened to me Jasmine re: the verification deposit. I never was able to verify the card. And there were times when I wanted to deposit with MB, rather than CC, to avoid this documentation thing. It doesn't really matter now, as I only play three places, and I'm good for withdrawals at all of them.

And like you, I refuse to tie a bank account into an ewallet. It's just way too convenient, and I can't say that I trust them 100% either, lol. The prepaid card is the best, as you load what you can afford ie. cash on hand...when it's gone, it's gone.

No chatmaster, lol...I'm all for civil disobedience, but this gal has been paying her taxes faithfully since she was 13 years old. Nice thought though.

Hey Pina, I am not sure why they haven't charged you that fee? When I used to do the 7.95 monthly fee, they charged me 2.50 Unless that was the money in motion card? I am curious now, I will have to check that out. I do remember the girl telling me that they charge and mc charges too, every time. I haven't had to pay that since I started paying the 15.00 fee and it could be possible that is when I stopped using the money in motion card so maybe that's it? I am going to the site and see what I can find, bbs

Would like to point out that we do not pay taxes on gambling winnings, including casinos and lotteries. So if any of our south of the border friends want to come up and visit us, we won't be making any deductions from your payouts.

[patrina]

Ok, of course I had problems accessing the site A few weeks ago I had lost my password and requested a new one, the guy said it was down and I would be sent a new one when they fixed their password retrieval. I gotit yesterday and tried tolog on but can't, so goes my luck, but I just clicked on the "how it works" and cant find the list of fees. But, I did just find out that you can now load your card from home! From your bank. That must be something new? Ok, got in, bb in a min.
