Default What Is Your #1 Funding Method At Books?

Trying to see what is best, if I had to guess it is western union or moneygram.

First time was with w.u. and ever since I've used M.G. which is alot cheaper. Also funded Canbet with a money order but that is no longer an option as my u.s.dollars won't be welcone there.

a certain book told me, i could use a money order as long as its a Western Union money order, just not one from the Postal service or a off-name banking institute.

Default Different methods....different books

WSEX....use either a credit card, Visa check card, or bank wire.

Matchbook.....credit card, Visa check card, or interbook transfer coming from WSEX.

What's the probability of Moneygram or Western Union being used for legal activities? I'd say pretty low
