Anyone use ePassporte at all yet? I'd like to get some confirmation on whether or not there are any fees moving money between EPP and Poker Sites. [/ QUOTE ] I know there isn't moving money to a site. |

Re: List of eWallets for Canadians
click2pay is garbage
the checks they send (in euros) are way short. way way short. they're doing some crazy [censored] business (taking in the USD and pseudo converting it to CAD for the user while never actually converting it at any stage, and then sending out euro checks at the better of the two exchange rates from their perspective, and then taking 200 basis or something like that. it's a joke. f them. when the consumer deposits the check, after the branch takes their cut, the consumer is eating at least 5.5% as compared to the exchange rate on the day that he requested the check. probably more. |

I just want to increase my limits, I'm wondering if I check the "non-gambling purpose" box will only the funds uploaded from my cc (around $2) be flagged as non-gambling or will my account balance as a whole be affected?

Re: List of eWallets for Canadians
Does anyone know anything about Western Union? The shady [censored] at Prima have zero e-wallets and won't even send me a check. Apparently the only option is Western Union. Never even heard of it.

[/ QUOTE ] Just to clarify, it isn't Prima (Microgaming now) that doesn't use eWallets, it's the particular site you are playing at. I've played on several Microgaming sites that offer both C2P and MB. Then there's ones like BetDirect that I foolishly deposited onto a few months ago with a CC without checking their options. None. No Neteller, MB, C2P, or any way to get my money off. A couple of weeks ago they finally added NT...how helpful! [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] In summary, Microgaming sites vary greatly with their funding options. |

BMO (outgoing): Flat fee of $10 + 0.2% of amount transferred (min. $15 - max $125) BMO (incoming): Flat fee of $14 CIBC(outgoing): Flat fee of $35 CIBC (incoming): There is a charge of $10 for each incoming wire transfer. Wire transfers from Schedule 2 banks cost between $5 and $10 per transfer. National Bank: $15 + 0.38% of amt. transferred National Bank(incoming): still can't get in touch RBC (outgoing): Flat fee of $35 + communication fee to Germany ($7) = $42 RBC(incoming): Free for wires under $50, $15 for wires over $50 Scotia(outgoing): I was quoted $12-13 + 0.15% of transfer amt.[but when I actually did mine at Scotia it was $15 + $7.50 (to Germany) = $22.50] Scotia (incoming): Flat fee $10 TD Canada Trust(outgoing): Transfers under $10K - flat fee of $30; Transfers $10K - $250K - flat fee of $50 TD Canada Trust(incoming): Flat fee $10 |
