Default Withdrawal fees

Does anyone know why Moneygram is so expensive to withdraw, but so cheap to send. My sportsbbok charged $90 for $1,000. But it would only cost $20 to send? I think they are ripping players off, trying to make us keep it in.

that's really a rip off Sir, but money gram or WU charge you by percentage depending on how much send, let say you send 100 they charge you $10 when you withrawl is 1000, they charge the send $100

Books' transaction costs are arguably lower without Neteller. The UIGEA is just a convenient excuse for gouging.

how come when I send 500 it still only costs $10? But when I withdraw 500 it costs over 50? Is the countries that big of a difference, or is the book ripping me off?

While I don't agree with it I do understand method behind it. Just chalk it up as being a cost of doing business type fee sir.
