Marathonbet Available For Australian?

It was several years ago. I used Moneybookers (Skrill) for deposits and withdrawals.
But I lasted, I think it was, less than 2 weeks.
Initially I could make reasonable sized bets but after hitting a couple of winning days I was limited to waste-of-time stakes so I just pulled out.
Looking at their site it does appear you can also deposit with credit card or bank transfer.

Just wondering if there's any Australians on the forum who have signed up and bet with Marathonbet? Can you deposit with your banks credit/debit card or do you have to use neteller/skrill? same question goes with withdrawing, wire or is it best to go with a netwallet?

From the outside looking in they it looks a good site with good odds, have read some reviews that they limit quickly but i'll worry about that when it happens.

Thanks for the help.

You can deposit with an Aussie card but beware of the international transaction fees and in particular the exchange rate premium your bank adds when calculating the exchange rate. If you are with a 'sub bank' to one of the majors it can be ridiculous as both banks add on their own premiums.

Will cost you about 5-6% in exchange rate losses at Skrill.

A wire usually a little bit cheaper than Skrill.

Maybe check out some books offering Bitcoin if you want to play so far and wide?

It looks like Marathonbet will give you an AUD account so why should credit card and exchange fees be applicable?
