Best place to transfer money

MikeyObviously · #1 03-13-2005, 08:04 PM

What is the best place to transfer money from one player to another? Pokerstars just barked at me for accepting a 600 dollar transfer and cashing out without playing. They let the cashout go through, but they made it clear they won't let it happen again. Are there places that don't care about this?

Also, how do party gift certificates work. Are these a good option?

Party will bark at you too.

Just do a Neteller peer to peer transfer. Or transfer on Stars and play a few hands. Would it hurt you to play half an hour of 1/2 before you cash out a 600 transfer?

Neteller transfer is not a viable option for my situation.

Also, I don't feel like playing poker every time I want to transfer money...that could rack up to hours and hours of cover play at a lesser limit without bonus or rakeback, which is a waste of time.

paypal quasi-cash best method out there for xfers.

actually is better now that they don't accept gaming than it was before.

So it can go Neteller X ====> Paypal ====> Neteller Y?

I should of specified that the money needs to go from one neteller to the other, but without use of peer transfer (Neteller Y is not registered to a checking account).

Also, what is the paypal transfer limit?

Paypal - 3.9% + $0.40
Neteller - 1.9%

Tough choice?

edit: old numbers.

Neteller is 1.9%, a far cry from 1%. Of course a Neteller transfer is not an option anyways for my situation.

Without the checking account, it's something 500 lifetime, both ways combined. Neteller Y needs to register a checking account.

Then you can just go like this:
Neteller X --> Party GIFT CERTIFICATE --> Neteller Y

I can do that anyways though, without Neteller Y being linked to checking. Besides, you said that party would bark at this...and that cover play would be necessary. I mean, it is an option for sure, I am just trying to find the best one.

They bark at transfers being immediately cashed out. But I haven't heard of them barking at an immediate cashout of a gift certificate. It's weird.
