I got it too, but I couldn't find any info on the wager requirements (I didn't look too hard though)

Careful! The match is only $20 on a $100 deposit. Usually the WR are 25X the bonus so in this case $500. Good luck.

Oh. Are you sure? Won't bother with that then.

They have done this in the past late in the month and each time it was $20 max bonus.

Yeah, the wording of the add makes it seem like you're getting $100 max bonus, but really it's $100 max deposit. They also have $30/month deposit bonus, so you can get $50 anyway.

If your account is in dollars, it's not a big deal if you deposit extra, but I'm confident the maximum useful deposit is $100. That is what it has been with Cherry in the past. You could deposit $105 or so to see if you get a larger bonus.

Casino Euro had a similar reload bonus, and I tried E500. Neteller got the whole bonus by charging 1.9% each way.

Is that what Neteller charges when you need to deposit or withdraw in pounds? 1.9%? Anyone??

I talked to Neteller support. It was like pulling teeth to get them to admit that they charge the 1.9% fee both ways. If you transfer $100 to a different currency and back, you will have roughly $96.20 afterwards if there has been no change in the exchange rate. <font color="white">Yes, it would be closer to $96.31.</font>

I was wondering about that. I recently played at a new Crypto skin for me, Total Bet, which works in pounds. I deposited 145 pounds in two deposits and cashed out 266. I thought it would be $487 but it was about $469 that showed up. I assumed I had the wrong conversion rate but they must have charged me $10 or so.

Any suggestion on how to circumvent the fees? I guess I could get a check but will my bank charge me also because it is in pounds?

Well, you could get a friend on another computer/ISP to play your ICP account (which is in USD) and then go to an empty NL Table and chip dump to yourself: make sure you fold PF to avoid rake. I haven't tried this, but it might work.

If you deposit to your TotalBet account every month, clear the bonus and then withdraw, then you will get hit with the transaction fees both ways each month.

If you have a big enough bankroll that you can let it just sit in a Crypto skin then you can pay for only one deposit, and then whenever you withdraw some of your winnings (leaving enough that you shouldn't need to redeposit next month).

E.g. deposit $100 to Totalbet (and get hit with a currency exchange fee).

Play this month, get $45 bonus and win $35 in play. Don't cashout. Play again next month with the money already in your account. Withdraw $100 whenever your balance hits $300. (Adjust numbers to fit the stakes you play.)

Sounds good but that will still give Neteller 1.9% or $5.70 in this case plus the 1 pound to Total Bet.
