Which is the best way to withdraw some winning funds from PP? By cheque? How long before anticipated arrival?
Or set up a Neteller account? Anyone have any experience with these?
Thanks, Steve

Most people have a Neteller account linked to an ING savings account, I believe.

Fees for EFT transfers are huge though. If you're cashing out from Neteller I'd consider cheque.

From Party to Neteller is the best way. Get the Neteller debit card, and withdraw cash from just about any bank machine. Works like a charm.

Neteller debit card fees are also huge. I'd just wait for the cheque in the mail.

Checking "Neteller.com" it doesn't appear to me available in Canada yet...says "Coming soon".
Has anyone used Electronic Transfer instead. That also appears to be an option Party Poker uses. To those that replied earlier...Thanks! Steve

I live in Toronto, and have a Neteller account, so they'd better damn well be open to Canadians /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

They have an office in Calgary, also Hong Kong and London England. But appears their H.O. is in Douglas,Isle of Man..."Offshore". They are a public company listed on London Exchange. that's all I know..but doesnt appear to do business with us Canucks. I'm thinking go "Electronic Transfer" as PP uses them with no charge. Comments?

I live in Canada, and have a Neteller account. I don't know what else to tell you.

I got my first PP withdrawal by cheque and it took about two weeks. I now use Netteller linked to my Royal Bank Visa card and it's pretty straightforward.

This thread is hilarious. Listen.. I'm in Toronto. I cashout from Party, two hours later it's in my Neteller account. I then transfer from my Neteller account to my Neteller debit card, hit the bank machine down the street and have cash in my hand. I've done this multiple times for $1000s... The Neteller debit card fees are minimal if you're doing large enough sums... 2 or 3 bucks out of a $1000 dont bother me none.
