    ePassporte is the new Netteller. The only gripe is that they charge $5 for each $100 when you wire from your bank.

    Western Union is the way to go IMO, but other people seem to like ePassporte for some reason.

    epassporte the minimum, then get a site - site transfer from a buddy for the rest. Keep those fees down.

    Western Union has ridiculous fees as well.

    Take the $30 u have left on some random site and win a tourney with that. Take that 1.5k and build into like a gazillion dollars.

    I thought that was a lot too, but to be fair, thats only for a first deposit, they are $2 per load (any amount, iirc) after that.

    stars indicates that the $5 -> $2 change occurs only for checking account loads. Not credit card loading .

    thats epassports rules and it can take up to 2 weeks for the bank transfer to go through
    I don't suffer from insanity. I enjoy every minute of it.

    has anyone tried this on bodog and did you have to go through their tedious credit card deposit procedure?
    Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.

    I've also heard of the Green Dot visa working well. Theyre for sale at most gas stations and walmarts and other places I'm sure.
