What is the best deposit option?

I have a Neteller account but it's in the wrong currency, they have an incorrect email (gmail instead of googlemail). i signed up with them when i was underage. now i'm old enough but i'm having trouble depositing with my card.
basically i've got a lot of problems with neteller and i cbato speak to them on the phone for am hour or more to sort it all out. then having to send them this id and that id, etc.

What are the alternative methods and what are there advantages and disadvantages? I live in the UK btw and want to open a dollar account.

Thanks

close the neteller, just tell them you dont need it.

Then open a brand new account a few days later. Sorted.

the only problem with that is that I need to use a new email account which is a bit of hassle. but it'll have to do. that's what neteller told me when i spoke to them a week ago.

neteller support sucks. called them today. machine said they'd ring me bak if i left my name and number but of course they didn't

Neteller is by far the best, so you should stay with them. You have to change accounts for sure to change your currency, so just go with that.

^Reading OP helps immeasureably.

I'm also a UK citizen, what are the advantages of having an account in dollars instead of sterling?

search the forums. i've asked this question in the past.

you lose less money when you transfer money with neteller. if you continually deposit and withdraw from your bankcard the exchange rate interest and bank charges will cost you a lot.
going through neteller you will only be charged once when you deposit and once when you withdraw.
for post players this will happen rarely so you lose a lot less money for each transaction. if you're depositin to uk poker rooms it might be better to use a card.

also, you can withdraw to neteller from aall poker sites i think. if you use your debit card or credit card to deposit - there are a lot of sites that will only let you cash out thru cheque (if you don't have a neteller).
last time i cashed a $120 the bank charged me £10 ($20).

so...US players...what are you going to use now?

I actually was trying to move money from one site to another last night and was informed this morning that they would no longer allow neteller transactions.
