    Sounds like a government sting operation. Pack up and move. Black helicopters on the way.

        But you have been sensitive lately.

            yea and you could do one next week and it would take 8 days
            NYC to London banks are usually very fast
            for $500 they wont even blink
            if you do it every day for month you will start to run up the red flag
            otherwise be thankful
            and drop the book an email
            "like no big deal i wired you $500"

                    JJ, I've received EFTs (electronic fund transfers) from Moneybookers within 1 business day. This is no biggie.

                      Bank wires usually take just a few hours to arrive. Books are fukking us around when they make us wait x number of business days. I can send a bank wire in the morning (on a business day), and it'll be at it's destination by noon. Same for when I receive wires, whether it be in the states, costa rica, europe, etc. It doesn't take longer than half a day, provided that you meet your bank's cutoff time.

                            J.J. I'm thinking of using this method to fund a book.....Never used this method before.
                            Is it a pain in the ass to set up.....How much banking info does the accepting book need?

                            Thanks

                              Wires are painfully easy - I do them from online banking, but some archaic banks make you go inside a branch and fill out a form. The book will give you the information that you need to give to your bank (or to send it online), and you just send it.

                              I found it funny when I was funding The Greek, and the destination bank they gave me was the same as the bank that I was sending from, so it ended up being an internal transfer, which is instant. They still made me wait 2 business days - the fukkers.

                                its not hard but like Chilly said find a bank that does international online transfers or at least on phone transfers

                                All you need is a few details from the books, set up one bank account just for gambling

                                  You are correct. Then again,oat on here would never do what we did with our banks.

                                    Might be same bank group. It's like a branch so the money appears immediately after transferring

                                      I'd like to know how you are able to play at a Euro book. My guess is it doesn't accept usa players. i have no doubt you do, but am interested how to show proof of residence. Always good to have a euro book for soccer, tennic, etc.
