Can Canadians have Instadebit accounts in U.S. currency?

I did a bank wire on crypto. Looks like I lost 2 points. Not too bad and only took about a day and a half. They told me that over 500 is free although they haven't updated there sites to say that. I play a lot on crypto so thumbs up by me.

PS - You have to scan a copy of a recent bank statement and get all the wire information from your bank. I did a small transfer first of 750 to test and then a bigger one after it worked.

When you make a withdrawal from a poker site to Instadebit, it is kept in whatever currency you withdrew in. I believe it is even possible to have both US and Canadian balances simultaneously, although I'm not positive about this.

Thanks for the info. For some reason I mistakenly thought Canadians couldn't have U.S. currency accounts with Instadebit.

I just phoned PC Financial and asked about international wire transfers. They said there is *NO FEE FOR INCOMING WIRE TRANSFERS*. This is for their No Fee Bank Account.

For new Instadebit users: I was able to withdraw from Prestige Poker (iPoker) to Instadebit without initially depositing with Instadebit.

while this may sound good, moneybookers cannot wire money into your PC account because it's a correspondent bank for CIBC.
