Default Neteller vs. others?

When you deposit money via Neteller at sites I believe you must withdraw via Neteller as well. I haven't gotten my bankroll to the point yet where I can (or want) withdraw any funds.

How long does it take to get a Neteller withdraw posted to your account and what fees are associated with that withdrawel? I'm assuming you must withdraw your $$$ via Neteller if you deposit that way because you aren't charged when you deposit but when you withdraw.

Are there better options out there that people are using?

Thanks.
Baz

What do you like about FirePay? Is it by default because you can't use anything else? I thought Neteller was my only option when I originally deposited (and maybe it was) but didn't spend the time looking around. Maybe Firepay is a better option than Neteller regardless......that's kinda of what I'm trying to determine.

Thanks.

Im using because I have to, it does charge $3.99 each deposit but I live with it. Its exactly the same thing so if you can probolly netteller is better.

I've used Neteller and FirePay. Neteller is better. Period. It's faster, it's free... it's great.

I've also deposited via Neteller and then withdrawn via check. The first amount, up to the size of the deposit, might have to be withdrawn via Neteller (I don't remember), but after that, you can have them mail you checks.

Agreed!

I used both, now it is just Neteller. I even have their debit card. Fast, dependable and service is great.

If you have a choice, Neteller would be best.

Hey, how does that debit card work? What kind of service charges apply and can it be used at any ATM?

Use it like any other card. I use it to hide cash from wife.

Fees:
Transfer from/to Neteller...$2 (You load the card with how much you want)
Other Loading.................$2 (Not sure what this is)
ATM Withdrawal..............$1.50 (Cheaper than my bank)
POS Purchase/Cash Back..$.75
Can even use it as a telephone credit card:
.25 to connect
.10 a minute

Thanks for the info guys.......thought I might be missing something better than Neteller and now it's fairly obvious I've been at the right place all along.

I might have to look into the debit card. Sounds like an interesting alternative to getting/using some of the profits.

Thanks again.

That withdrawal fee seems a bit misleading. Neteller charges $1.50, but the ATM machine of the bank would also charge you $1.50 or something would it not? So in essence, you'd be paying $3 to withdrawal. I think I'd rather just withdraw a bunch online and pay the $3 for a cheque.

Depends on your bank, personally I have a credit union that doesn't charge ATM fees. And I agree that NetTeller is the bomb, never had a problem with them.
