Well I got my bankroll upto $500 now and decided to give PP a try to take advantage of their bonus, and their "fishy" players ive been hearing so much about.

Couple questions:
How long does it usually take for my cashout to clear at Neteller? (hope not 72 hours like it said)

Also, is this a good idea switching to PP? so far I hate the program compared to PS.

Anyone else start at PS like me and move to PP?
I play $25nl, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I'm never going back to PP. Hate the software and the horrible sng structure. I'm staying with PS and Full Tilt forever.

Yep.. started with PS, fell in love with the program, then switched to party (& skins) and hated the software at first. Don't worry, it'll grow on you, especially when you start making some major cash (from the fish and bonuses). Some minor annoyances include the slider increments being screwy, and not being able to hit "enter" when you type a bet. But I think the bonuses make it well worth it... I also swore to myself that ONCE i got the big bucks, I'd move back to PS, but for right now, I need to be bonus-whoring and moving up limits.

Greedo017 is on a distinguished road
usually when cashing out money from pokerstars it takes like a day, one time i cashed out some one day and got it the next day, and that day i cashed out more and got it instantly.

i played party for a while before playing pokerstars, ps bugs me because the hands are dealt slowly and i feel like everything is slo-mo compared to ps, that includes sng's. i play at both, party doesn't bother me at all, given that i never use the slider i type in my $$'s.
i betcha that i got something you ain't got, that's called courage, it don't come from no liquor bottle, it ain't scotch

When I cashed out of PS to Neteller I got screwed on the exchange rate I believe from USD to CAD. I cashed out $500US and it converts it to Canadian funds and then I deposited it onto PP but it only worked out to about $480US...So im out $20US....any way to get around this?
Not only is Neteller making money off their 8% service (or whatever it is) but they are also screwing me over on the exchange rate.
grrr!

anyone else have this problem?

Everyone who does currency exchange screws you.

Get a Neteller acct in USD. (I am in Canada and have a Neteller acct in USD).

You shouldn't be paying a service fee. If you initiate your deposits/withdrawals from the poker site, not from Neteller, there is no service fee.

I'm in the UK and I do the same, then I'm only paying for the currency conversion when I cash out to my bank.
