There has been numerous posts about this topic, wow!!! I'm starting to get concerend about the integrity of my account.
Good luck with getting your cash. I assume more details would help if you are seriously looking for real help.

You're probably out of luck. Hopefully they can get it back from wherever it went though.

Neteller is a great place to move money around, but a horrible place to store it.

agreed, I only keep 1k in there and move the rest via Party wire tranfers.

I did not store it....someone made an EFT from my bank from my netteller account....to another online casino account....I'll post the name as soon as netteller completes the investigation to warn other 2 + 2 ers

great info. thx!

We should start some kind of lobby to get Neteller to change their ways. The idea set fourth by Raemius "better practice would be to have you require a login to your neteller account to confirm every transction." is a great idea and I would feel much safer. We all depend on Neteller in this online frenzy we call poker and Neteller depends on us more as we are making them rich rich rich, so they will listen to their bread and butter if we show enough driving force. Neteller is a hinge to online whoring and gambling, so we must protect our source of making a LIVING.
Thoughts?

You have to be logged on to Neteller to do this. And it takes a couple of days to hit (assuming he is talking about an EFT and not about Instacash) and shows as "Pending" when you log in.
