I'm from Australia, and i wired neteller some money. It's been afew days and i havent received confirmation of the payment, so i send them an email, this is the response i get:

'I am sorry your wired funds have not arrived into our account with Barclays bank U.K; due to the recent legislation passed in the United States(UIGEA) USD wired funds are subject to delays in New York and are either returned to sender (originating bank) or pushed through to our account at Barclays U.K. This process might take up to 10 days.'

WTF, i live in Australia and these stupid laws are affecting even me. This is ridiculous, so now i have to recall my wire, then resend it in euros coz America thinks they can control the world.
