The prepaid **** cards are probably the easiest way. However, ** or MoneyGrams would probably be more the better method to use.

You have to contact them to get ** info numbers. They told me they dont accept ** deposits. ** has an online option but I did'nt try it.

You can also do free book-to-book transfers with 5 Dimes, Olympic, or WSEX.

You can also do transfers with Cris and DSI, but you'll be paying I think $60 per.

the people at Legendz are f'n awesome to deal with, they probably will. I'd like to hear how this turns out for you, if you can get back.

unfortunately they won't do it. they transfer to the greek/bet jm. i do like this book but i think i may have to start playing elsewhere. they cap baseball wagers at 1k, and i usually play between 500-1000 a game, but sometimes i like to go higher than 1000, and they won't raise their limits...they are a great book though.

you only have 4000 in your account and you bet 1000 a game? I hope you are heavily funded elsewhere.

Regardless, according to Ganchrow in post #7, The Greek will transfer the $$ to Matchbook for you. Why not transfer the money to The Greek first, play it through 1 or 2 times- whatever they require, and have them transfer it again to matchbook?

hitbitritz...What's good about Legendz? Late 11-10 lines. Every effort taken to make them vanilla. Customer service was fine, but certainly didn't go above and beyond for me.

Been a while since I played through a twenty percent bonus there and can't imagine going back. Has something changed that I missed?

Why I like Legendz(actually play at the Pig):-108 on all sports, sometimes I see late line moves there, and the bottom line: always fast and easy payouts.

One of the few books I trust in todays climate.

Best way to do it:

** to WSEX then request a same day free transfer to matchbook for however much you want. Leave some cash in WSEX, same company but different lines. Kill 2 birds with one stone.

No problem, man.

2 different websites, same company, same cs, same lines, but The Pig is has 16 cent juice. I'm pretty sure you can log in to both with the same info.

their lines on baseball aren't the best, but they have good customer service and the fastest payouts for US customers out there. i trust them. period.

Did you even read my post? I said to deposit to WSEX using **, and then transfer the money from WSEX to matchbook for free. The whole process takes about 30 minutes.

Has anyone used a **** DC (from your checking account) to deposit into Matchbook? I was told by Matchbook it would work and they would process it just like a CC.

If your bank allows the transaction, that is true.

Guys, Citibank online offers online bankwires.

It is almost like having neteller (for deposits only). It makes the wire process very easy. You put in the swift code and then it automatically fills in a lot of the other info, you fill in a few other fields, and hit send.

Took mine 4 days to MB.

When you sent the wire, did it say that you have to call Citibank customer service or else the wire might be cancelled or delayed? I got this message and am getting very nervous.

I knew this was a bad idea. Freaking Matchbook won't accept cashier's checks. Absolutely pathetic.
