    That's pretty much it. Considering that I am making a netteller account almost exclusively to use their Prepaid Card, and that I will be using it for everyday's expenses, what you guys think. Obv poker sites are in $, so... ? Thanks!

    Ty WelshD, problem is about the change. If you have it in pounds, don't you have to pay a change fee when depositing from a poker site where your account is in dollars?

    If you're using neteller to mainly just cash out to then I would have the account in your currency. If you use it more to transfer money between different poker sites then have it in dollars.

    ty yoshi, was thinking same. what if you plan on doing both things tho? I guess maybe one should better have a moneybooker account for one thing and a neteller one for the other...

    Yeah, that will work. Whenever you transfer money from one currency to another somebody (neteller/bank etc) usually take a small fee. Thats why I have neteller in dollars and only use it to transfer money between sites so I dont have to keep paying a currency conversion fee. Whenever I want to actually cash out I'll either do a bank transfer direct from the poker site to my bank account or a refund back to my debit card.
