expert,

I got a no limit account the other day, and it works like a charm. There are no extra fees or anything. At least no fees that I have been charged yet, and I have made some decent amount withdrawals and deposits since getting the new status.

The steps in getting a no limit account seems to be:

1) Do all the preliminary steps (verify cc, verify bank account, verify address)

2) Send in scan of passport

3) Apply for no limit

In my and a few friends experience the procedure is this:

1. Verify adress
2. make a deposit to your MB account.
3. Ask for other ways to increase limit besides credit card. They will answer "verify bank account" - make a small withdrawal and send in a scanned copy of a bank statement showing the withdrawal. They will also ask for a scanned ID at some point.
4. Make transactions so that you have almost used up your outgoing transaction limit.
5. Ask for a pro gambler account

I can confirm there are no extra fees.

Moneybookers is WORLD BEST, i use them for 2 years, i post SUPER positive comments on them. They even help me to fight hacker, when my money was stolen by them. World Best Payment Gateway.

I have no worry on MONEYBOOKERS!

Thanks, 2 buddies,

I used MONEYBOOKERS for one year dee...
So i think what i have to do just apply for the pro grambler account!

I make 9 times of withdrawal within one year,
but everytime i got my money in 3 days only!

I need no limit as well...

Is that "gambler account" only can be used for GAMBLING purpose only?

Com'on expertuser. No need to post in every old MB thread you can find. You are wasting our time.

If you have that much to blow, invest in real estate. It's like gambling, but provides a better payoff in the end.

anyone know if MoneyBooker..

Anyone know if MoneyBooker accept U.S. residents?

I heard few good things about them and was wondering if they allow
deposit/withdraw from/to MoneyBooker.

Hopefully someone and or Bill familiar with Moneybooker's rules can chime in.

Thanks

So let's start a new one...

Go Moneybookers!

Munnybookerz r00lz!!!

Moneybookers is the choice of a new generation.

Beautiful, sweet-smelling Moneybookers, where have you been all my life?

Moneybookers would sodomize Neteller with a rusty screwdriver and make them like it.

Moneybookers is the last of the great warrior-poets.

Moneybookers saved my family from certain doom at the titanium-plated hands of the cyborgs.

Moneybookers is the best on-line money transfer service in the whole great big entire world*.

Thanks jj... This shit was messed up.

sportsfanatic · 05-09-07, 07:13 AM

If Neteller ever came back, I would dump Moneybookers in a second.

Moneybookers is OK, but Neteller is better in terms of customer service, deposit and withdrawal fees, and easy no limits.

slash · 05-09-07, 07:38 AM

sportsfanatic,

How is NETeller better in CS? I have never experienced CS as incompetent as that of NETeller. NETeller has a livechat, yes, but most of the CSR's know absolutely nothing.

Moneybookers has no fees, NETeller has no fees, so not much of a difference.

NETeller has transfer limits too (100k monthly or so if you don't want to add your bank account)... and the steps in getting a no-limit Moneybookers account are quite simple.

An advantage with Moneybookers is that you can use your balance to buy stuff from merchants.

Bank wire fees suck in Canada. $10-$15 for any incoming to my account. I never paid Neteller any fees at all. Bank wires to Moneybookers $35-$42. I never paid Neteller any fees to fund my account with them via EFT.

Toll free VIP customer line with Neteller, easy as hell to use. Phone Moneybookers means long distance to Britain or their stupid messaging centre which is really slow in response time.

Neteller means instant no limit for everyone. Easy with no verification steps.

Cheques from Moneybookers means send for collections and long wait time to clear. Canadian banks suck for foreign cheques. Neteller had free EFT 3-7 days in my account.

Moneybookers is OK, but Neteller was the BEST.

I repeat: I would drop Moneybookers in a second if Neteller ever came back.

Moneybookers might have no fees if you live in a country in the European Union where bank wires are dirt cheap, but in Canada international bank wires are f***ing expensive.

Moneybookers is OK. Neteller was way better.

sports, NETeller does NOT have no limits. You can transfer a max of 100k or so per month (there is also a biweekly rolling limit among others) if you don't go through all the verification steps...

Anyway, I have never had to transfer money from/to my bank to/from Moneybookers/NETeller, so I am not aware of the fees involved. I was merely speaking of fees to/from books.

A downside with Moneybookers (at least at Pinnacle) is that you can only withdraw 13.5k or so at a time if you use Moneybookers, whereas you can withdraw 50k by NETeller (meaning you have to pay almost $60 in fees if you use Moneybookers and only $15 if you use NETeller to get 50k).

I'm not saying that Moneybookers isn't useful. Just that Neteller was better.

You've gotta admit that Neteller's 100K limit per month is better than Moneybookers 90 day limit.

I can only agree!

The MB 90 day limit made them useless on a larger scale - but as soon as you get a no limit account, there are no problems at all.

And I must admit that I wouldn't even have thought about using Moneybookers, if NETeller was still working like a charm for everyone. But given that they seem to be stiffing US players, it would be stupid not to explore different anenues like Moneybookers...

Exactly. I feel the same way. I wouldn't even be using Moneybookers if Neteller was still around. But they aren't, so Moneybookers becomes the default for me. I hope the U.S. customers all get paid.

I believe all US customers will be paid by Neteller, after the US DOJ squeazes every bit of info it wants out of them. As was said in another thread the US gov't will know about every neteller account before there will be payouts. MOneybookers doesn't want the attention of the US gov't so no US accounts.
