I received an e-mail form Skrill (Moneybookers) that on or after 19/11/2012 it will no longer be possible to make deposits or withdraw money from some gaming merchants.
They advise to contact the individual operators for more information.
I contacted Party Poker and they say that everything stays normal.
Anyone who has the same problem and has contacted their poker sites ?

not fun seeing all those restrictions all around the world- really it just makes things harder for simple people- never ever did restrictions stop individuals with lots of money in their pockets, they always find a way around them, but it does hurt ordinary people who just want to enjoy themselves with no criminal ideas in their head at all (like money laundering, tax evasion etc.)

I haven’t received nothing so I guess that may only be happening in Belgium or only in some Eastern European countries. I know the list is probably huge, but they should provide the users with the list of the gaming merchants that will stop working with them, it would be a fair attitude to their users, that will probably keep using their services even if they can’t do it for all the online services they use.

The only relevant message like this i got from Moneybookers was with the Full Tilt story, when they announced that they stopped their services there. I wonder if they will be up and running with the reopening next week.
