Some poker sites will take money orders or Western Union (pokerstars for example). Thats how I got started.

Is anyone on FTR from Australia?
If so, what's the best cash out option? (I'm thinking cheque or NetTeller if that's acceptable with the banks here?). I'm probably going to just use credit card to deposit or I may set up a NetTeller account if that's a good way to cash out as well...

Western Union has a web site and you can do it from there with a credit card. My bank won’t do business oversees so that was the only domestic site I could find to use my credit card. It worked like a charm but cost me $15 in service fees.

Check out www.neteller.com. You can link it to your bank account and it is very fast, and safe. It works similar to paypal if you are familiar with that.
