I just checked out a real time conversion on TD Easyweb of 100 US to Candian and they are giving me 116.56. I went to Party to cash out 100US and they are giving me 119.57!!! Why the huge difference??? I know the bank makes a profit but it seems Party is giving better than the posted rates.

I am a Canadian wanting to open a new Neteller account. I will use it to play at Party.
When I create the account should I make it in USD or Cdn $? |

The only advantage of making it Canadian is that you can link it to an ING acct and then transfer the money to ING (so Candian NT to Canadian bank to Canadian ING) and get 3.5% interest. You can't link a US acct at a Candian bank to a US ING currecy acct. They won't let you. |

Hey, so Party does have its own neteller like service. You don't even need neteller to put money into PP right? And since we are Canadian, they can convert my money from US-CAN-to my bank account at a great rate, am I correct because this is what I heard.

[/ QUOTE ] if you have US cash lying around in a US acct in a Canadian bank and you want to convert it to Canadian, I don't believe you can link it to Party and then deposit into Party and then withdraw it. Can someone confirm this? What I do is I have a US VISA card and a US currency acct. So I make a deposit using the US credit card then I pay off the credit card with my US currency acct. |

You can link to a canadian regulated and operated US CURRENCY account which is what I do. you should get your NT account in USD for sure though it will save you tons of money. |

It is very important that you create the account in US funds. Otherwise you are going to pay a transaction fee for the conversion everytime you move your canadian neteller money into a US funds poker site. Slim, Yes. Party EFT is the only way to withdraw to your CDN bank account. I'm not sure why but the conversion rate offered by Party has always been excellent. |
