    Is is true you were able to deposit money into a book in minutes? How long was it to take out money?

      it was the greatest thing since sliced bread. The instacash feature was best, up to 10 dimes into a book instantly and they took the money from your bank account a day or two later.

      Getting money out was fabulous too with their DC.

      Alas those days are long gone

          moving money around anywhere you want, however you want, super easy in minutes

          DC could withdraw cash from neteller easy

          but US citizens are not capable of handling something like that which is why you cannot have it in the US anymore, and Bill Frist, John Kyl, Robert Goodlatte, and others understood this, and they did the right thing

          people in the US should not be allowed to use Neteller because they cannot handle it

            Bitcoin is way better than Neteller, hands down.

                The problem with bitcoins is you have to buy the bitcoins and the price fluctuates, the you deposit into a bitcoin sportsbook instantly. I tried it this week and I didn't like it. Plus you can only see how much you're betting in bitcoins, it doesnt tell you how many dollars you are risking, only shows you how many bitcoins you are risking.

                  Where have you been?

                  Several threads in this forum have discussed bitcoins and the books accepting them.

                  Anyone can use them but for the life of me I can't see why anyone other than Americans or criminals would.

                      This depends on which book you are using with BTC. The one that I use I can set it to show it in BTC or US dollars. Mine lets me put a hold on the BTC as well if I think it will drop...BTC has been steady lately and it's the future!

                          Neteller still is. It hasn't changed. And Moneybookers is even better.

                          What changed was US policy.

                                  NETeller is the foremost and the best that ever happened in pertaining to "parking" your funds to and from any offshore accounts. It became so huge that even BkofAma got involved in it. You could go to any BofA branch, simply get a deposit form and load funds.

                                  But when CEO Ron Martin "got hot" after moving close to 94 million dollars worth of transaction, DOJ and FEDS closely move in and shut down the whole organization.

                                  There were some rumours saying that some of the account holders had $100,000 in their accounts and got frozen.

                                  What puzzled me most, Ron Martin went down but BofA is still alive! -)

                                        i'm amazed no offshore replacement has stepped in since 2007 to replace these guys. I know its tougher to move money now, but they can never stop the fed ex cashiers check. UNSTOPPABLE!

                                          You could move money from just about any Book A to NT to just about any Book B in a matter of minutes, and generally all free. What has it been now, about 5 years?

                                                He's right that it's easy in that sense but only a few books offer it that are not any of the mainstream books we know. The main one is bitcoinsportsbook and btcsportsbet.com

                                                If 5dimes or Heritage took it I would use it exclusively.

                                                  No they don't accept it. Brock, if you knew how to use BTC properly and knew exactly how to move your money with it, you would embrace. It's the best thing since The Richie Cunningham haircut was introduced.

                                                      It's by far the best BTC book around. I have never known them to take new players. I was told it was invite only. I was referred when they first opened.

                                                        Oh ok. I've been trying for the past week and I figured it was some kind of error on their part.

                                                          So true. You guys need to put aside your "meh, it's risky" or "i don't understand it, therefore it's a scam" and really try to use them. Neteller was always at risk being centralized. Even if the US govt didn't shut it down, the CEO could have stolen all the money (FTP anyone?) or their servers could have been hacked and a million other things could have gone wrong.

                                                          Bitcoin is decentralized, fast, essentially free, anonymous if you take the time to understand how to use it, and cannot be shut down a la Poker sites.

                                                          Been having good action at btcsportsmatch - the bitcoin exchange like site. No vig, low fee, and fast transfers. Give it a shot, Illini is right.

                                                            It was so powerful to me the first time I did a transfer from book to book and it was done it like 3 seconds. Also a btc is worth 5 bucks, how fukkin hard is it to multiply the number of btcs wagered times 5 to get the USD amount?

                                                            For people who are worried about BTC price fluctuation, just convert your btcs to USD via your wallet like LR or DW, so easy.

                                                              It was awesome back then. Just a few clicks and big payouts just came your way.
