    New message from neteller

    Plus, be sure to visit www.neteller.com on 8 January. That's when we'll un-wrap our gift to the world.

    Thank you for choosing NETELLER this holiday season!

    Um yeah - Armmaggeddon - DUH! Nostradamus wrote about this in quatraine 43, verses 2-6, helleaux!

    To wit:

    And unto the New City shall be unveiled
    Brought forth by that which was restrained and reviled
    Told by nets and tellers revealed through lost deposit
    By the world, great fire and agony forthwith

    Could it be any clearer??

    Isn't the 8th the last day US players can withdraw any funds left in their account?

    since the message says it's a gift to "the world", it has problably little to to with a debit card for us citizens.

    as one over here might forget, the us is not the world.

    noyb,

    That is possible that they may be offering a pre-paid debit card for US Citizens. That wouldn't be surprising.

    ...but for the minor inconvenient fact that they signed agreements with the US Government to abandon the US market.

    Okay, scratch that. Last day is the 26th.

    Please note: This is the final reminder to US members regarding the withdrawal of funds. US members will not be able to request funds from the NETELLER website after 26 January 2008.

    I was hoping they would allow Canadians again. Just a site upgrade and now they want ID documents to have normal sending limits.

    I wish I could remember my Neteller ID. It's been a whole year since that debacle. They changed the look of their website but they still reject Americans.

    the home page has a rocker and the words "martini" "bass guitar" and "sexier" on it. Was Neteller even a little bit sexy before? Looks like they went Bodog.

    That's kind of what I was wishing. Maybe one more year and they'll allow us back after they finish their US probation.

    You are right, Bill. No one is looking for sexy with an ewallet--just efficiency and a modicum of customer service. Provide those two things and come back to Canada market and all will be well.

    It is a smart move spicing the homepage up. Of course, efficiency is the ultimate goal and that's what keeps people coming back and using your service. I'm assuming, since I live in the US and no longer use their services, that they have maintained quality in that regard.

    I personally, when I go to a website or use a service, I want to feel that the page is customized so that I keep coming back. Neteller in particular has a very middleman type feel, especially for gamblers, it's the guy you call to get you the good stuff. So I want to feel wined and dined, I want to feel like I'm important and worthy of a little song and dance act, so long as they keep facilitating my addiction smoothly a little style doesn't hurt.
