Default Why Neteller and not use Debit Cards?

What does everyone seem to love Neteller so much. I play on Party and I deposit using my debit card. They wire money directly into my account for cashouts....

Is it for security reasons?

Cashouts takes a few hours. Cashins are instant. You can get your money out of partypoker, and put it in stars and back to partypoker in the sames day.

Also, deposits work instantly with my debit card but withdrawals take a couple days which I do not ming....

Most US banks wont allow for deposits with debit cards, hence the need for Neteller.

I assume you are not from the US? We'd all do it that way if we could.

I use Citizens Bank too, and they let me deposit straight into various sites. However, I have never tried withdrawing straight from the site/casino into my account. For withdrawing, I use Neteller as a middle-man.

Yeah I was able to use my Visa branded check/debit card from my credit union up until about a year ago and then the honeymoon ended [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I think there are still just a few US cards out there that will work, so if you have one, enjoy it while you can I guess.

Neteller on the other hand, its fast, you can put your money onto your neteller debit card if you need it right away and it just is a really good holding area for your money. Makes moving money between poker related things easy.

About four years ago I deposited $500 into netteller from Australia. The fees were steep about 9%.

Since then I have not needed to deposit any more money at any poker site or casino. I have a nettteller debit card and use that for all my Withdrawals. Can't cash cheques in Aus.

As an aussie playing online, netteller has been invaluable I wouldn't leave home without it.

You can deposit once and then just use your balance for all you online gaming transactions.
