i read this : Your Skrill account is free for personal use as long as you log in or make a transaction at least every 6 months. Otherwise a service fee of EUR 5.00 (or equivalent) will be deducted monthly from your account...

I read Calicul's post , next thing I did was to log in my Skrill account . Man , 5$ per month as a fee is too much , they should make this fee lower . It's crazy to be charged so much , because you haven't logged in or made a transaction for 6 months . Many dotes do this thing , charging high fees for account maintenance.

Well , i did new about the 6months fee if you’re not active on skrill ( so that’s helpful) , I thought that there a 10$ /year fee . I still find it funny that my account in base mode doesn’t have multiple currencies instead you lose on their automatic conversion fix fee 4% and bad exchange rate . I ll contact them what’s all about multiple currencies

Skrill is good to use to deposit in poker rooms or buy some games on Steam . I use it for these reasons only . I think it is not good to withdraw directly to a bank with bank transfer , they have high fees for this reason . I have Skrill and PayPal counts , I want to have a crypto currency e wallet account also , I will try creating such an account in the nearest future .
My currency in Skrill is euros . I do not need of multiple currencies there .

You dont need because in your country currency is euro for so many years, but he have in lei, so he set up account on start on that, so its not same! Then brm make payout in dollars and so on! But skrill is great for deposits, no fees!

back with some update Well ,yea ill thell you why i need it ! First of i withdraw from here to skrill and they once converted automatic on they re course AND then took a 3,99 Fx fee (that left me from 200$ to ~170 euros ) so yea you need multiple to avoid that fxfee atleast. Then i noticed as you said that is no good for transfers world wide between acconts /banks but the good part is that you can make an virtual card (3y available &if you deleted it once ,what i did ,you then pay 2,5 e for a new one ) where you can add it to you re e wallet and make up to 10 transactions and /or pay online . Now idk if they are 10 transactions /month or 10 and after fees . So i bough some creatine for 2y reserve with money from brm Cool . Now i wait for an update to my question from them > attachament

It's good to have many payment methods , besides a credit card it is good to have paysafecard ewallet or PayPal or Skrill or cryptocurrency ewallet or another payment way . I had PayPal but I couldn't use it , but they would accept Skrill do problem solved . Now I see in a sports betting site that I will get the first deposit casino or sports bonus if I deposit with anything but Skrill . So here I could use PayPal or card. I have used Skrill many times . It is good payment method. The only complaints I have heard for them is for the withdrawal fees . I made a withdrawal years ago via Skrill , font know if they have made lower their withdrawal fees now .

It's sad when a poker room or a casino site doesn't offer many withdrawal or deposit options . Inmost sites and rooms this I'd not a problem , but in some sites it is
For example on ACR , you can deposit via credit card or bitcoin , you can withdraw via cryptocurrency or P2P or luxonpay (something like that , a new e wallet I think ) . ACR has no traditional ways to deposit/withdraw like Skrill or PayPal or Paysafecard or Neteller etc . This Makes the withdrawal part very hard . 3 times I have ''withdrawn'' from ACR , all thanks to P2P transfer. I transferred funds to a player , he transferred back to my PayPal account .

Yeah I have the same problem with ACR, maybe it because ACR is unregulated site.
