Do Moneybookers actually HAVE "non-gambling" related merchants, or are we going to see the Neteller fiasco all over again in another part of the world, and with another eWallet. <br />
You may find that Moneybookers will reject withdrawals from the casinos, who will then be FORCED to find an alternative method to pay you.<br />
<br />
If Moneybookers have not yet started blocking such transactions, try to find a casino/sportsbook that is more understanding, and deposit all your money in Moneybookers there, and play for a while so that they get a reasonable amount of action, and when Moneybookers pull the plug, withdraw from them.<br />
Ideally, you want one that would use your Neteller based on verifying you, without you having to have deposited with them.<br />
However, if Moneybookers have decided to stop processing your gambling transactions, Neteller will most likely follow, and you will have the same problem all over again.

The problem is not on the casinos' side. It happended all of a sudden. On Tuesday, I was still able to deposit via MB but when I tried to perform a transaction at another casino yesterday there was a statement at MB after being directed to the MB site) which states that it is their policy not to allow transactions related to online casinos or sportsbooks. There was no advance notice and hence my funds at the casinos could be in limbo if this is a 2-way thing. I would have thought that I should at least be given a week to sort them out.<br />
<br />
Whether or not Neteller or Ecocard will follow MB I have no idea. However, 2 weeks ago I received a notice from MB that they have just allowed uploading of funds from Hong Kong. It is possible that the authorities may have imposed blocking gaming transactions as a condition. Nevertheless, that would have been a good opportunity to let me know that they will soon disallow such transactions.</div>
