    Do I have to reload on BI since I rarely use it anymore or just a valid account?

    Hey John...the problem with the two books you're using (and--apart from 5dimes--it's true for all US-patronizing books) for these two major FOOTball promos is that they make no attempt to cater to non-US'ers...

    How much trouble/expense would it be to make at least 1 good e-wallet (Moneybookers/Skrill is by far the best, imo) available...so we don't have to resort to seedy Western-Onion deposits to people we don't even know?

    You poor sods in "the land of the free" have to deal with such crap because of your CSWPIIP form of government (consistently shitty...whatever party is in power)...but for the rest of us who are allowed to wager without being made to feel like pedophiles...books with not even ONE reasonably-efficient method to transfer funds in and out is a deal-breaker. We may open an account to qualify for a good promo (as i have at DSI for the other promo, and will probably do so at BI for this one)...but the thought of ACTUALLY depositing in one of these outfits...is a disturbing thought (but small compared to the sheer horror of trying to get a withdrawal to come back within the same decade).

    The only US-friendly book with a decent cashier system is 5dimes (cuz they try to be friendly with the rest of the world's money as well).

    BTW, I just noticed MoYal pm'd you re: international users...wouldn't be surprised if it's a similar concern.

    i hear ya' kindred...it seems like ONLY 5dimes (a sharp book) and SIA (a very square one) even try to get action from both groups: the captives with no convenient money-transfer methods, and the spoiled rest-of-the-world...

    tells us that the captive market is an especially lucrative one
