Do any of you use the neteller debit card. Any good or bad feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks

I use mine on occasion. Never had any issues with it.

I have heard that you should avoid ATMs that suck the card in rather than just swiping though. Apparently, some banks will eat cards that do not have a name printed on them.

It's the only way I pull cash out of Neteller. It's pretty convenient. Loading the card is instant. Works fine for me.

I use it all the time. Just keep in mind the fees that are associated with it. The important ones being $2 to move any amount up to $1000 to the card, and $1.50 to withdrawl at an ATM plus whatever the ATM charges. If you can find a free ATM you can get around that last one.

Try to find ATM's that let you take $1000 at a time out to save. I have found almost all Bank of America's will let you do this.

I make most of my Neteller withdrawals to my savings account but I put $1k into the debit card every few months just so I can make a 'mad money' purchase every month or so. I've never had a problem using the card at major retailers (Home Depot, Target, OfficeMax, etc.). The charges are steep in comparison to other debit charges but, hey, its all poker profit, no?

thanks guys. I have been using EFT for awhile. I'm going to give the debit card a try. Seems to be a 2$ transfer fee and an Atm 1.5$ to be the common fee's to expect.

are the fees deducted directly from the net teller account?
EX: if i want to withdraw $500 from an atm how much do i move to the card? $500, $501.50 or $503.50?

thanks

How is this better than just using a debit card that you have the neteller account linked too? I ahve neve payed a cent in fees and spend poker money all the time.
