Hi, There are many sites giving bónus by making a deposit trough netteller and not moneybookers and almost all, i notice that prefer netteller like here.
Why, whats the diference , is it cheaper to use?

Don't know if NT is cheeper for the merchant than MB but one thing that makes NT better is that MB has a gaming related merchant code. So if you can't deposit to a gaming related website using ur credit/debit card, you won't be able to deposit to MB either.
I definitively prefer MB. It's not true that poker sites don't offer bonuses when using MB. Just check PokerNordica for example - 20$ instant bonus when depositing with MB or RedKings where you have a tournament series for players that use MB as deposit method. I know many other rooms that offer some nice bonuses for MB depositors. Neteller is not cheaper at all... Neteller takes a percentage from you for every transaction you do and MB doesn't so i don't know why people are writing that Neteller is cheaper

If that happened.. don't think that can be considered to be NT's fault....

There are bonuses for MB too. When You are making a deposit using credit card there is a check box which you have to select if you want to use your money for "gaming" and that is it. I can`t use NT but i think that NT impose less fees on merchants than MB so that could be the reason why some sites give better bonuses to NT deposits.

Neteller was the first e-wallet. That's why it is the most accepted one.
As opening an account do not cost anything, try to have one e-wallet for every currency you will use. This will safe you money in currency conversion fees.

Moneybookers for me is the best and cheapest,I ve got net teller and dont really like it I pay to much for nothing,and moneybookers is fast and thers more i could do with moneybooker.................
im gonna open a MB account,, i will never ,, ever use NT again!! they may have fixed the legal problems and scary account seizing practices.. but i refuse to risk my hard earnd cash at netfeller,,, yes,,netfeller,, i was on vacation in my homeland USA last year.. and when i tried to access my account,, it was locked and seized.. and they would not help me at all,, until i returned home to my legal residence in DK,, then i had to go through the whole security team b.s. and still because of their legal problems, my withdrawl was still denied, and i was treated like some kind of criminal,, because all usa funds were frozen.,. i could not use my own money and finally after my attorney threatened with legal action, i was able to transfer my funds to a non-us bank.. .. for me .. its simple.. burn me once,.. your bad.. burn me twice.. my bad
i will try Money Bookers now, and i will not let larger amounts of cash accrue in any online payment service again.. as its not a bank i can walk into.. so i will never trust such sites completely

Moneybookers offers users 2 choices. 1st is guarantee that your assets will be kept in bank account and safe, however this does not come without price. Maximum amount that can be kept in account is $1000.
2nd option allows you to have more than $1000 but it comes with the risk. read it its somewhere on the site and only action required by user is to check the right box
Now I use neteller but the problem is it does not have a big cashier so i will make account in Moneybookers. my friend use that and he said to me it is fast and it have a bigger cashier. i will take him advice and i will use it.

Neteller are very fussy when it comes to ID verification, they'd no problem with my Passport photos but they kept refusing my Address verification - kept saying it was 'cropped' ... so?? like that makes it fake? I had to use a digital camera to take the pic's of proof of addres as I have no scanner. They will not accept a 'cropped' shot, as in, not the full page in picture. That to me is nonsense as I sent a perfectly good copy of my passport back and front.
MB never even asked for id, and they're address verification system is far better - they simply send you a code via post and you input the code into your account to verify. You can use MB even before you verify address.
