i thought this was meant to be a simple way of depositing? i received my $50 from brm a few minutes ago and looked in my moneybookers account and it was there.
so i went onto 888poker-cashier-deposit-skrill put the amount in put the bonus code in and logged into my moneybookers account. then it says choose an option to upload funds to my account. but i have the $50 already in there, why cant i use that?
am i doing something wrong? or do i have to put some of my own money onto moneybookers 1st? its a right carry on. i should be playing poker with my new bankroll now.

It is possible, that you have 50$ in your skrill account and you want deposit at 888.com 50€? Euros not Dollars? You can be sure that you have the 50$ from bmob in your skrill account.

Don’t complain about Moneybookers, viewing things the way you are exposing them, i think the problem is on 888, or maybe you aren’t doing things the way it should be. My experience depositing money on Party and Yachting with Moneybookers never gave me problems and, in both cases, the method was the same: enter the poker room, cashier, chose deposit, amount, chose Moneybookers, insert Moneybookers’ data, and it was a matter of minutes till all went well. You have to log in your Money bookers account, but all the operation is done through the poker site.

Double check things cause such problems with moneybookers seem to me very weird. You should have all the options available when you log in from the site you want to transfer eg. money that you have in your balance, or credit card, so if you see the 50$ you can check on them and proceed.
I believe its a Moneybookers problem and 888 has nothing to do with that. Better email them

ive just e-mailed moneybookers because i definately think its something to do with their end or maybe a combination of the two. i'll see what they say anyway, hopefully its sooner rather than later. im already on tilt and not even played yet lol

At least yours made it to Moneybookers. they told me to open a new account which would allow me to collect my BRM funds. They fed me a line of bullpoopy because every time I've tried to transfer my BRM points to Moneybookers I get the same error. Since I live in the U.S. Moneybookers can't allow any funds from pokersites to be deposited in my account.
I'm sorry to whine about my issue in your thread, but I believe you could transfer your money from Moneybookers into your bank account.

I think the 888poker account is automatically set on euros, not dollars so you need to contact the live support and in about 30 mins you can deposit them
This happend to me when i wanted to make my first deposit there and everything solved in no time

no its defo in dollars
------------ so i phoned 888 and they told me i have to wait 5days for the tranaction that wasnt complete to change its status to cancelled or something. complete waste of time.
im tempted to just try and deposit to another site. i really wanted $100 tho and not just $50.
where else can you get double your buy in?
------------ ok i should change the title of this thread to WTF 888POKER. 888pokers loss i have just deposited on mansion poker. looks good 200% sign up bonus hope i clear it wish me luck
------------ also i apologise to moneybookers. it was 888 not showing the correct options
