I used Moneybookers to cashout my mobpoints and as far as I can remember, there were no transaction fees. I even deposited on a poker room and there was no fee. however, when you transfer from a MB account to another MB account then there's a fee.

it is a percentage but it depends on what you want to do i think if you transfer teh money to a poker site tehre may not be a fee but i no when i deposited to my bank account there was a % fee...

Yes, for sure, there is a $2.66 (i think) fee to transfer to my bank and that's before the charges from my own bank. however, from MB to poker rooms, i think there are no charges.

i dont think its a fee but more so its a percentage biased on how much you withdraw because i think when i took out my money i had to pay 2.70 or something for my withdraw??

Yeah, it could be the difference. but even a few euros is so much value here in our country! so every penny counts that's why i chose moneybookers as it looks to have the lower % on fees.

what if you put the money on to moneybookers from here and then from there to a poker site that you can withdraw from for free? i was actually thinking about doing that but then you have to use a credit card and etc... so i just said whatever take my 2.70 lol

But why use a credit card? I never used one, the money from my moneybookers account came from BRM and some small winnings on poker rooms. I just move it around and when i have some more cash there i withdraw through my bank with moneybookers.

sorry what i ment was if you didnt want to pay for those fees for withdrawing you can take your money from moneybookers and send it from tehre to a poker site and then withdraw the money from the poker site to avoid those fees
