    Getting money from Paypal to a sportsbook?

    Each sportsbook I look at has a bunch of deposit options using online transfer systems I've never heard of.

    Anyone know if any of these places will allow transfers from Paypal?

    for example:
    NETeller | Moneybookers | GP | *********** | ***** | Web$
    ********** | *** | myCitadel

    I'm trying to figure out ways to deposit that don't involve my bank account or ************.

    I thought Paypal would be a good way, but books don't seem to accept it, and the neteller and other online transfer things don't seem to take paypal either.

    Use prepaid debit cards at Safeway and Walmart. That's the best way to fund your account without involving bank.

    I found a site called paytoteller, which purports to allow you exchange paypal money for neteller money, or vice versa

    I wish. I actually want to deposit money into a couple sportsbooks, but cant. Debit card wont work. Pre-paid gift and debit cards don't work. wire is not an option for me, all those e-wallet things don't take US customers, nor would I be willing to link them to my checkin account anyway, No way I am paying the ridiculous interest that ** charges, and I don't understand most of the other deposit method's they list.

    eh, I guess I'll try withdrawing from betphoenix into an online account like neteller, and then taking money from there to deposit elsewhere.

    No way am I involving my bank account or credit card.

    edit: Not close to completing rollover at betphoenix.

    I'll try buying a safeway or walmart card.

    Could you be specific about why pre-paid cards don't work. what problems did you have? which books did you try?

    This is exactly why I don't play offshore. Too many hoops to jump thru to deposit and withdraw money. I will stick to Vegas books.

    most books refund your fees by putting them into your account if you send so much

    They just get denied. From what I have read they don't work at most books anymore. I personally tried BetPhoenix, Bookmaker, and a couple others I cant remember.

    Exactly.

    Betjamaica its $200, 5dimes is $250, Bookmaker/Cris/DSI $300, etc. etc.

    Plus, to answer Brocks question, they let you send the deposit in whatever name you want to use.

    Why is in store a hassle for you? Has your name been banned by **? I'm in and out in less than 5 minutes if there's no line.

    You can send ** online with your card. pretty fast. yes, you can use a fake name, just let the book know the senders name.

    then what happens when the deposit dosent get credited because of some processing issues (its happened before) and when you go to get your money back from ** they ask to see your ID

    what will you do then?

    Its happened to me several times, where the book gave me the wrong name or the wrong location. I've gone straight back to the same ** with my receipt in hand and had them fix it on the spot. If its a name change they can do it themselves in their computer, but if its a location change- then they have to call the main ** and give them their store id number to get it changed. Most of those times I've had the same ** clerk, and they remembered me anyway.

    If I had to get the money back, I would just send the money to a relative or friend. Either way you would lose the sending fees for canceling the transaction anyway.

    One time a book, pissed me off for giving me the wrong name twice, so I got a name from another book and sent it there. Thats the good thing about most books using the same countries to receive the funds at.

    Actually, its so your name DOESN'T get banned from using **.
    (They don't take kindly to these types of transactions, although all the while they are making millions from it, lol)

    I'm using Moneybookers only now. My bank card was reported to be being used by someone in another country, so they canceled it. Now i have some debit card with a chip in it. So i'm staying clear of using CC or Debit Cards.

    Hell yeah I'm broke. But got about $70 on PayPal. I'm waiting until NFL to deposit some money so I can become SBR Pro and play Beat The Prick. I just lost my last $230 on 5Dimes on the Yankees against Boston earlier this week. Trying to get another chance there.
