WillHill: deposit in pounds or dollars?

[Smelly]

I have heard that I should deposit here in dollars instead of GBP, but I see that the $ bonus is 80 while the pounds bonus is 50. The exchange rate now is about 1.80 pounds per dollar so if I deposit in pounds it works out to $90 dollars compared to 80, and the monthly increases as well. Why shouldn't I deposit it in pounds? Are there some hidden fees or something if I'm an American depositing in pounds on Will Hill? Thanks.

You'll each a 1.9% fee each way from neteller if thats your deposit/withdrawl option.

so which is the better deal? it sounds like pounds still is?

You dont have to deposit every time. Transfering chips to the casino counts for the bonus, so neteller doesnt slam you every time.

I like the dollars since it is almost the same amount but you have more actual betting units and a decreased chance of busting due to a small bankroll. i.e. you are less likely to bust betting $1 with a $160 bankroll than betting 1 pound with a 100 pound bankroll. Keep in mind this also applies for the monthlies too.

Pounds is slightly more EV in the end, but its still close enough that either choice is acceptable.

Uh I think if you deposit in dollars they convert it to pounds automaticly or maybe not...dont think they charge the 1.9% either.

no i just deposited in dollars and they don't convert it. as halo7 already said it doesn't make much difference, and i wanted to have a smaller chance of busting.
