Good Day!
I just realized that when I cashout and Transfer from Eurobet Poker to the sports book then to my Neteller acount, Neteller is taking 2 points on the exchange from Euro to USD. This troubles me grealty as I'm playing there under a 25% rake rebate affliate and with this 2% grab by Neteller its not worth it in the longrun as I play strictly 5/10 (6 max)holdem and do well. Has anybody ran into this problem and found a solution to escape the exchange costs for a Canadian like me?

I've only been a member there for 2 weeks and my first cashout came into neteller today. I'm at work, when I get home I'll make sure the amounts add up. But anyhow, When I made my acct I know they asked me what currency I'd like my money to be kept in. I chose USD obviously and it hasn't been a problem so far. Did you choose Canadian dollars or was that not an option?

it wasn't an option, anyhow when you transfer to the sportsbook it goes back to Euro then it gets transferred back to USD at Neteller

My Eurobet account is denominated in USD. Not sure why yours needs to be in Euros.

How about emailing Eurobet and ask them to keep your account in USD? I never checked, but I assume Neteller does not deal in Euros or pounds? It looks like they are hitting you with their(Neteller's) conversion rate, Eurobet, might be able to convert that for you at no charge, or less than that of Neteller.

I assume everyone on eurobet is on an affiliate deal, same for me, I got an email telling me that my account was setup and all the DL and screename info was emailed to me, it was very nice not to have to uninstall everything. Mine did not have any setup problems though, maybe because Im in the USA.
