      so it is not a vlsa then ?

      u upload via credit or debit ?? or do u have option , are they seperated?


      do they have to post a withdrawal via wire transfer say you win 2000, ?? and ur vlsa cr.e.dit c.a.r.d limit is only 1000??

      ie: do you need a bank account ?

      or can they fund ur card any amount ?
      It's a DC . Period. But u can use it like a **** only. If u have the funds . No credit

        Exactly.

        Betcris family accepts it for deposits but does not list it as an available withdrawal option even after I deposited with it.

        I want to keep my bankroll in US dollars online in an e-wallet to avoid paying currency conversion fees every deposit and withdrawal to and from books and poker rooms.

            Don’t know why these sites won’t accept them. Maybe we should ask them.
            It’s the best and cheapest account I have ever used for gaming. Everything done instantly. Instadebit are really not good.

              Looks like Bookmaker accepts Eco Payz as both a deposit and a withdrawal option.

                Yes krash,
                from sportsbook back to ecopayz is good

                like i said

                closest to skrill moneybookers they are,
                only drawback is, the withdrawal limits are set lower by the sportsbooks,
                meaning, 1000-1200 max withdrawals back to eco per day

                    Yes they are by the looks of it FCA and also licensed to issue payment cards! Just checked their company over.

                      ecopayz needs to be accepted at more books to be a good ewallet option.

                        Dirtdog is yours a standard chequeing account?

                        Mine is standard TDCT account, I wonder if the problem is I need an international account to receive these European bank transfers?

                        My standard account worked fine for years for bank transfers from skrill, paypal, partypoker etc and worked fine last week with Instadebit but no luck lately from any source wanting all these SWIFT codes and shit.

                        I'm hesitant to give sport books my banking info as there have been frequent unauthorized failed attempts to access my Skrill account over the years after I made deposits at various books, but Betfair should be pretty safe...

                          Yes just a standard checking account. I've gotten run around for just about everything doing them though. Some places require things that others don't, Some you can get away with a basic bank account number and some require you to get the IBAN(international bank account number) associated to your account, you don't need an international account you already have this. Also had to send bank statements to get them to send the wire at times clearly showing bank address.

                          Here's a site for swift codes if your ever looking for one.

                            I don't know how widely accepted they are at sportsbooks.

                            BetRedKings accepts deposits and withdrawals from both.

                            So there are at least 4 e-wallets.

                            Why one of them doesn't grab this opportunity to fill the void left by Skrill?

                            Get out there and sell themeselves to the books... become the most widely accepted, there's $ to be made there.

                                    Webmoney is good but very confusing to deposit , seems like some sort of an exchange, those C&B and clicktopay are pretty good and strictly regulated.

                                      ok so it has been a few weeks. I just posted about Heritage new Canadian option "Instant banking". Is anyone missing Skrill anymore?

                                        Always going to miss skrill. No one even comes close to competing in number of places that they accept and the simpleness of moving money from one to the other in hours is long gone but it is what it is and if there's a will there's a way just a little trickier now.

                                          Yeah, still miss Skrill.

                                          Nothing has really changed.

                                          Need 4 different e-wallets funded to deposit to half the books, and half of those don't cashout back to the e-wallet, and the others only accept P2P.

                                          Skrill was everywhere.

                                            Skrill was the best!!! Only payout option for me now is a cheque.

                                                    It's the only option I have, and not alot of books offer it as a payout method.

                                                      there is plenty of easy deposit options bank eft direct to and from ur banks on the various sites.

                                                      shouldn't have to get cheques stallion

                                                        Guys how about using ************ to transfer funds? Most books take them.

                                                        I think I'm missing something because no one is talking about the cards. I've been out of sportsbetting for a while and remember using Neteller and later Moneybookers.

                                                        Cheers

                                                          Sport books are usually American dollar accounts. Canadian banks and cards are Canadian dollar accounts.

                                                          eWallets are cheaper because they help to avoid excess foreign exchange fees.

                                                          Yes there are other options that work fine but they have this issue and are generally more expensive to start with.

                                                          So we are looking for another widely accepted eWallet.

                                                            Nothing has really changed.


                                                            Need 4 different e-wallets funded to deposit to half the books, and half of those don't cashout back to the e-wallet, and the others only accept P2P.


                                                            Skrill was everywhere.

                                                            Neteller before it. Some of the books take Paypal. Tried that?

                                                            Yea seems the challenge for Canadians is keeping the money in an intermediary and not bringing it back home.
