Neteller novice question

franker33 · #1 05-06-2005, 01:09 PM

Can anyone help explain a better way of depositing w/neteller than instacash and an 8.9% fee? I've always wired money in the past at sportsbooks and they cover the fees. Do most poker sites cover the fees? Party did not. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks

I know Paradise pays for instacash.

Also, you can do the 5-day EFT for free; you just have to wait.

I've never paid for instacash.

Here's another question that I'm sure the OP could use. What's the best way to withdraw money out of your neteller debit card?

Let's say you have like 5 grand in it. The typical ATM machine will only allow you to take out about 500 at a time, with a fee each time. Also, you get it all in 20 dollar bills! There has to be a better way.

I would assume that you could in some way involve a financial institution to facilitate this transaction. Maybe they'd want a cut. One of my bank accounts has a $200 withdrawl limit via ATM. It sucks since you need more than that if you go to fowoods.... If I go inside the bank they do whatever amount I want.

Why not link the Neteller account to yr bank account? I've done various amounts with that up to about 3k.

these sites will waive the instacash fee if you deposit with them directly:

ultimate bet
pokerroom
absolute
prima
crypto (ecash)
pacific
bodog
paradise
iPoker (noble)
apex (golden palace, doyle's)

by the way be careful to deposit on the site directly as playersare said; my brother tried to do instacash at Paradise, but he screwed it up (I don t know what he did) and thus had to eat the fees.

I'm at the deposit screen now and having some problems. I want to select the "Neteller instacash" option so they pay for the fee, but that option seems to require the bank account number registered with my Neteller account. Well, I don't have one. I just made an initial credit card deposit and haven't looked back.

Does anyone know how I can still get them to pay the fee?

Thanks,

This is in Intercasino by the way...but I'd think it would be the same as for the poker side.

to use instacash you have to have your neteller linked with your checking account. if you funded your neteller with a credit card, then you already have money in neteller and you don't need to use instacash at all. (regular deposits have no fee to begin with).
