Neteller execs and employees give lowdown

Thousands of US customers await monies from third party payment solutions firm NETeller, whose co-founders were indicted last month on various charges ranging from money laundering to racketeering.

I believe that Neteller will fall even greater when this is all said and done. Neteller's reputation has taken a major blow in the way they have handled this mess. I personally have closed my account as well as a lot more of people have.

Hi SirW

Yep, I agree that their reputation is shot after all this. Between the deposit people shooing us away and the casinos etc. not allowing us to play, its a very sad situation.

The ramifications for all, could be hard for them to handle in the future if things change for the better for US players. I know I wont go back to any casinos that have ousted US players.

Which brings us to incentives if things do work out differently than the way they are going now. Will casinos offer free money with no WRs to get us back. Lol, I really doubt that one.

I have heard, from a very reliable source that there will be a couple of honest deposit options to be ready in May. Until then, the only other option is Virtual Gift Cards. I know you can deposit with them, but dont know about the withdrawl part.

"I know I wont go back to any casinos that have ousted US players. "

You hit the nail on the head there. I realize that a lot of them sites say they had no choice in the matter , but any site that has not stood up for the U.S citizen will never see this ol'boy play it , or promote their site knowingly so . As they drop U.S. players , I drop all relations with them .

Im glad to see I dont stand alone in my thoughts about this. And with a landbased casino within 10 miles of my house, who needs all the hassle anyway.

I can take my money and drive to Wheeling and gamble all I want without waiting for my deposit to go through, no wagering requirements and no waiting on cashouts.

So nope I wont go back to them.
