I'm based in the UK and have had no problems with deposit/withdraw via Moneybookers at Pinnacle/BetCris/Betfair. Quick service as well

If you transfer money to a sportsbook, is that amount deducted from your 90-day rolling transfer limit?

Yes.

But if you ask kindly and tell them you only use Moneybookers for gambling they may give you an unlimitted 'pro gambler account'.

Ok, if not the account is useless. Thanks!

Not Necessarily true, you can update your account to larger limits by simply providing them with a verifiable mailing address etc and your limit goes to $9700.00 per 90 days

The last limit before I got the 'pro gambler status' was about 44000 Euro per 90 days. There were different measures to increase it. But finally a gambler account is the only really satisfying solution.

Canadians using Moneybookers should know that your bank will charge you for receiving a wire transfer from Europe, Moneybookers do not do ACH or e-check deposits like neteller firepay, Instadebit etc, that don't incur any charges, they use International bank wire transfers.

If providing a verifiable mailing address only gets you $9700 limit per 90 days, how do you get a 44000 Euro limit per 90 days? What do they want?

If you are a scalper, that's still useless.

So if you get a "gambler account" you cannot buy stuff from non-gambling sites anymore?

I didn't ask them so far because anyway I only use Moneybookers for betting. If you want to be sure better ask their customer service.

There were different steps of verification, for example they sent a letter with a code to my postal address and I had to enter the code, that increased my limit. There were also other steps, but sorry that is quite a while ago so that I don't remember every step. Ask the customer service and for sure you can increase your limit step by step to over 40000 Euro. Or in case you use them a lot, better ask for a gambler account anyway.
